skate journal: a bit of rampy and a lot of flat (may 19, 2015 day 135)

Posted in Skate Journal on May 20th, 2015 by corpo

Went out to Rampy with a bit more energy then the night before. I’m sick of the rain though. I took a few runs and wasn’t really too into it. I did manage a couple back 5-0s out of nowhere though so that was cool. Other then that I skated flatground and it was a blast. I did kickflip and pop shoves then a varial flip. Then for whatever reason I decided I had to do a switch varial flip. They all felt pretty good and several tries later I landed one. Rad! I also hucked switch heels (nowhere close), hardflips (kind of close), switch b/s flips (feel doable, but not close at all), switch bigflips (since I can do switch varial flips, but not switch kickflips it kind of made more sense then switch b/s flip. But I wasn’t even remotely close), varial heel (landed one horribly), and front heel (came really close). Then I got called in to help India with her physics homework. It was hard.

skate journal: brief rampy (may 18, 2015 day 134)

Went out to Rampy feeling really sore. On the first back 50 I felt my legs complain about skating. Ha. I tried to get going, but after a few songs and even fewer tricks I went back inside.
