skate journal: brief roll in front of the house while feeling sick (aug 3, 2016 day 216)

I guess the reason I felt so bad on campus was because I was getting sick. Doh. So I just rolled in front of the house for a bit. Didn’t ollie, just did shoves off the front of the board, slide around cabs and nabs, that’s about it.

skate journal: terrible campus trip (aug 2, 2016 day 215)

Went to campus as I didn’t have much time and it had rained. I started under the Engineering building and could not get anything going at all. I felt terrible. I couldn’t even kickflip. I moved up to the bike path above that had dried and tried some flippers. That didn’t work either. I pushed around and ended up on the new flat by the stadium. I tried some tricks for awhile, got heelflip, but not halfcab flip. Then just gave up and only tried nollie heels or switch flips. Got close to both. Felt heel pain and left. I had been wearing some new spenco full length insoles without any other padding. I think they need some type of padding.

(setup 8.1 Null Riley deck, venture low v-hollows, stock thunder bushings, 1/16″ riser, 3 washers inside each axle, 52mm Reed wheels, New Balance Numeric Quincy denim/gum spenco thinsole orthotics)
