skate journal: flatground in front of the house (dec 29, 2016 day 364)

Posted in Skate Journal on December 30th, 2016 by corpo

Went in front of the house on a sunny, but cool day. The bigger board felt pretty huge. Warming up went ok actually. I got kickflips, fakie flip, halfcab flip then started working on 360 flips. Then I basically just did 360 flips. Well, tried 360 flips. I landed two of them. One with a hand down, another clean one. I’m saving the clean one for something special. This one is just funny.

skate journal: fun dork manual in the garage (dec 28, 2016 day 363)

Thought of this trick at some point during the day and figured it would be a good no ollie garage thing to try. I had setup an old 8.5″ deck I had (can’t setup new stuff until 2017!). I basically tried it for about 20 minutes and landed a few of them. “halfcab” nose manual shove. At least I had fun.
