nice legs

Feeling good on my last day of 39 and had the day off work since I’m leaving for DC in a couple hours. Went out front of the house with the intention of doing 39 tricks. Got 40 instead. With the exception of the last trick everything came within 3 tries. Crazy. And being the nerd I am I wrote them down in the order I landed them. It was a blast.

skate journal: quick solo rampy fun (April 10, 2013)

Posted in Skate Journal on April 11th, 2013 by corpo

Had a long night at India’s ballet rehearsal and had a late dinner. Went out to Rampy because my legs felt like they needed some skating and well, I try to skate every day anyway. It was the first time skating Rampy with the Thunders again and it was way funner then I thought it would be. I rattled off most of my tricks and a few flatground tricks in between runs. Favorites were boardslides, front d revert, first try front feeble (kind of) and fakie crook stalls. I’m still adjusting to the Thunders with flatground. I kinda miss the lows for that on heelflips, but treflips feel good with Thunders. I’ll take tres over heels any day though. I had a super good feeling front shove right as Carleigh and Jack showed up to grab some Null stuff to bring to SOL/Crisis for me. Thanks dude(tte)s!
