skate journal: Quick Solo Rampy Fun (Jan 2, 2013)

Posted in Skate Journal on January 3rd, 2014 by corpo

I had promised to watch the One Direction movie with India so I had about 30 minutes to get out on Rampy and skate. Yeah, I know what you are saying, One Direction? Unfortunately yes, but think about it, I listen to bands like Pissed Jeans and The Mighty Jesus Lizard. How do you rebel against that? You listen to boy band mass produced pop music. Anyways, I have been way more sore then normal so I played the new insole game and put the thicker/stiffer New Balance insoles in. They are harder to skate in, but man they make the feet feel good. I actually hit the ramp harder then I have in a long time and did most of my Rampy tricks including a couple that I haven’t done in a long time. Fakie Joe Hamilton, front tail, fakie pivot to fakie and front feeble. Pretty hyped on that. Also did some flip tricks. Got quite a few including treflip, fakie varial flip, halfcab flip, b/s flip, but could not get a heelflip. Not sure what’s up with that. I did land one completely in primo though and stood there before flipping it back onto it’s wheels. That was pretty fun. It sure is nice having a little skate spot in my garage.
