nollie nose jib

I”m always exhausted and unmotivated after driving down from my moms. I’m not sure what it is, but for some reason the change in altitude gets to me and I’m always beat. On top of that I think I’ve hit a burnout since reaching 300 days. I was going to skip skating, but since it’s supposed to snow a bunch I figured I should get out. I thought of trying Josh’s trick for the game (nollie front noseslide to fakie) at the research curb and it somehow got me out of the house. It did feel good to be outside, and it was warm out. At first I thought it was impossible. So I used more angle and ended up getting into it and landing some non-slide versions. I also messed around with switch front noseslide bigspin out and would eventually land on one. So I got a few of the nollie nose stalls to fakie. I will have to try again sometime and slide them. It seems somewhat possible. I went over to the ledge and made myself do one crook. It took a long time. Ugh. It made me want a wider truck again. Just when I thought I was totally happy with my setup. Great.
