skate journal: louisville park hip action with ollie (july 4, 2015 day 180)

On a hot late morning Ollie and I went to Louisville park. There were a couple scooters there, but they didn’t last long. And then a couple older dudes who were having a good time which was fun to see. Ollie and I mostly skated the hips. He was doing such good halfcabs. He also had a long line that ended in a pop shove to fakie. The frontside ollies were good too. I had a bunch of lines that started with the f/s ollie on the hip. I would do a b/s flip on the bank, or a boneless or beanplant over the hip, kickflip over the hip, got one b/s flip over the hip. Then Ollie was over it so I skated the ledge slowly as I was really beat and it was pretty darn hot. I had some good crooks, one weak back 50, bad halfcab noseslide, horribly slow front tailslide, technically a front smith and one front 5-0 on the taller part of the ledge.
