greater then rampy for the moment

Went out to the garage on another rainy afternoon. I was feeling better and more hyped to skate. I grabbed my regular board and went through the pain of warming up. I started by doing some form a cab. Basically just a fast pivot spin. No ollie in. It lead me to think I’d be able to do a cab if I were to have more room. Then I did a few kickflips, shoves, fakie flip. Started going through the list. Halfcab flips were hard as it’s so narrow with the bikes and mattress. Bs/fs flips. Heelflip. Got to treflip and got stuck. Partly because I couldn’t do it and partly because that trick seems to hurt my shoulder more then other tricks. I grabbed my garage setup and tried on it. Kind of got a couple. Then the real hucking began. I would end up getting a few rare ones, varial heel, back heel (landed 90 degrees and turned the rest of the way) and at the very end a halfcab heel that took a really long time. I had also hucked a ton of nollie heels (not close), nollie flips (super close) and switch flips (relatively close). It was fun.
