skate journal: short and fun curb session with ollie at the school (nov 20, 2017)

Sore from so much skating over the weekend I wanted a mellow little something. It was pretty nice out and Ollie was down to skate the curb he waxed the day before so we pushed 3 times and we were there. He picked a good spot to wax it and I was impressed with his first wax job. We skated for about half an hour. I had some fun 50s, fakie front 50, fakie nosegrind, almost a nosegrind pop out, front 50 nollie shove, slappy crooks. Ollie did some boardslides right away, then started trying crooks, but did some good willy grinds. He tried front 50, but did front willy too. I wish I would do willy grinds when I tried 50s. Oh wait, I do 5-0s. Ha ha. He got close to crooks a few times, but normally it dropped into boardslide and he would 270 out. Ollie was lining it out with ollie up the curb, crack bonk to manual off the curb then trying the curb. It was fun.
