skate journal: la raza filming and hucking (aug 18, 2019)

Even hotter day.  Sean and I rolled to La Raza where Kevin met us.  We warmed up.  I was wearing shoes without orthotics for the first time in awhile.  It felt good.  I had a few kickflips, a heelflip, front 50, weird front 5-0/50/smith surfy accident and a great feeling front 50 shove.  Then I filmed Sean and Kevin get great lines.  Sean’s took awhile, but was well worth it.  Kevin’s line came easy.  It’s good, he deserved getting it so quickly.  Halfcab flip, bonk the crack, back 180 nosegrind.  It’s the Ventures.  He’s woke.  Oh wait, so is Sean.  Everyone knows what’s up.  After filming Sean, Kevin called out a trick for me.  Switch front noseslide shove.  I went right into it.  About an hour later I gave up.  I wasn’t bummed though, it felt good to try a hard trick.  I was motivated.  I need to try that one more.
