I work the later shift this week, but Liz has to get up early to bring Ollie to work so I get woken up anyway. Rather then lounge around I decided to skate. I was thinking maybe Boulder park or Dawg Park. I guess in my head I knew I wouldn’t even turn in to Boulder park before I left and I definitely drove right past it without giving it any thought. I was wearing shorts again and it felt good in the morning heat. I even went shirtless for the full Sants effect (Josh thinks this place looks like Sants). My first slow warm up run actually went pretty good. Ollie, nollie, nollie 180, fakie shove. Kickflips weren’t as easy to get going, but they would come. My first ‘real’ line was kickflip, varial flip, front shove. It took awhile and I thought I’d be stuck on it forever, but after that tricks started flowing. Got fakie flip then haflcab flip. Heelflip then b/s flip. Landed nollie varial flip, fakie bigflip, fakie varial flip, and a few 360 flips with a hand touch. I didn’t get a clean 360 flip, but I felt like I was figuring out how to flip the board better. Close to nollie flip,nollie treflip, nollie bigflip, halfcab heel, varial heel, switch varial flip. Had fun. Probably got sunburnt.
