skate journal: more back boneless failing in the rain (may 13, 2015 day 129)

Dave called and said Blue Skies was dry and I should skate with him. It wasn’t dry, but we made it so the little QP was and the main bank was dry too. We messed around a little before I tried back bonelesses for a few minutes. I got closer. But it started raining. Dave kept skating He also did switch no comply and an over 40 f/s halfcab flip on the bank. I’m not sure I can do the back boneless.

skate journal: back boneless fail (may 12, 2015 day 128)

This really summarizes my session. I went to Blue Skies after work to try the ol’ back boneless for the challenge. I should take away some positive that I could finally get into the trick (most of the time I grabbed behind the wheels like you are supposed to). But I could not commit. There was a couple near the end where I did kind of commit, but I looked like I was going to fakie. Ugh. It was a very tiring session and my left knee hurts from hopping around on it.
