skate journal: A little skating, a lot of filming, and a lot of pain (Oct 23, 2011)

I met Bernie and Sam at the little manny pad by Mike’s Camera. I was a bit late so all I did was a manny then we headed out to a new school kind of near Jack’s house. I was skating like poo, but managed a line of ollie up on, up one, up one, kickflip on flat then ollie a kind of long 3 stair. Bernie did some cool manny up to manny up to manny stuff. For being almost as old as me Sam was able to quick up the stairs way to easy. Then we went to Stonehenge where Carleigh and Jack met us. Jack is supposed to be healing a heel bruise, but he still managed to dolphin flip his little cruiser board. I did a few of the fun basics on the bank to curb before filming Bernie rip it. Carleigh took the worst slam that Stonehenge has seen as she tried a rock ‘n roll and dipped her board under the fence causing a gnarly slam when the board didn’t know. It’s possible that Sam and Bernie’s fence re-adjustments had something to do with it. After this I started to feel really crappy again. We went to a couple more spots, but I mostly just sat or filmed. Turns out a crazy infection in my foot was taking hold. Ugh. Another Sunday ending in lots of pain and being unable to sleep. Gotta stop that.
