skate journal: Rampy with Ollie, then solo for a bit (Dec 11, 2012)

Posted in Skate Journal on December 12th, 2012 by corpo

Finally got Ollie out on the skateboard again. Don’t worry I didn’t force him. We skated and had fun. His first run was pretty rad and had a big fakie ollie in it. After awhile he dropped his board during a dropin then jumped on it when it came back. So that became the trick for a bit. I thought it was terrifying the first time I jumped back on, but it wasn’t too hard and since Rampy is so small it’s basically jumping to flat (although the other side comes up quick!). Ollie got a front rock then Liz kicked him out for bed time and claims he can’t skate it again until I figure out to prevent cement dust from littering the air. Doh. I skated a bit longer and had a total blast. I tried a bunch of those lien boneless things to tail. Maybe got a couple. Tried to do a regular boneless to tail, but my little wheels bounce so weird off the big ass pool coping. Got a Joe Hamilton (fakie front 50 to rock ‘n roll), frontside pivot, front ds, front d off the nose (which I havne’t done in a long time) and skated pretty well for me.
