skate journal: This weather blows (March 23, 2010)

Seriously, another blizzard?  This winter blows.  I got off work, but spent almost 3 hours driving about 30 miles to pick up shirts and hats for Null.  It changed from pouring rain to 5″ of snow in about 30 seconds.  Ugh.  Anyways, after dinner, a nap, some kid time and the dishes I went out to Rampy around 10:30.  I had no real goals or motivation, but I ended up having fun despite having some of the worst flatspots ever on my new sample wheels.  Argh.  I guess the back 180 test last night did them in.  I just didn’t notice on asphalt.  About the only tricks I did on Rampy I was hyped on were front and back smiths.  Other then that I ended up just skating flatground and hucking tricks.  Somehow it was fun even though I would stop sometimes due to the flat spots.  I did a lot of hucking.  Landed on a hardflip for the first time ever.  Didn’t ride out though.  Landed on two switch kickflips, but slammed on both.  Felt cool to land on those at least.  Other then that I did a few basics.  I stopped skating when I realized I was gonna pass out due to hunger or exhaustion or both.
