skate journal: brief cold weather flatground after work(Nov 22, 2013)

Had the early shift this week. Didn’t sleep much all week due to stress/anxiety about the null video. But started getting the itch to skate and hit a parking lot after work that I had eyed up last winter. It’s nothing special, but I had noticed a building for lease that faces the south and has a wide sidewalk. I figured it would dry up faster then most spots and I was right. The warm up was pretty bad. It was about 25 degrees so warming up was even tougher then normal. Since my board had been in my car all day the bushings had frozen a little too. Ugh. That made for some awkward pushes and bails. I got a line of fakie flip, fakie ollie up the curb, sw front 180 off. Manual, nollie up the curb, kickflip off. Ollied a little ashtray on it’s side. Struggled at halfcab flips (WTF!). Then had a dream of doing a 3 filp followed by ollie’ing over the ash tray upright off the curb. Unfortunately I couldn’t land a treflip and eventually snapped the board in half. I blame my shoes being out of tread. I can’t do treflips without tread on the front shoe. Not sure what it is. But it was kind of dangerous. I landed a few and slid right off. Also almost rolled my ankle once. That will be the last day on those shoes. As much as I sucked and broke a board it was still nice to get out and find something to skate.
