skate journal: flat in front of the house for an hour (july 2, 2018)

Feeling better somehow I went out for an hour in front of the house to skate flat. It started really slow and rather than bail tricks I can do I bailed tricks I’ve never done. Like switch tre, nollie front/back heels, etc. I took like 10 tries to get a halfcab flip. It was maddening. But I would go on to get a lot of flip tricks. Fakie flip, fakie varial flip, both halfcab flips, both halfcab heelflips, 360 flip, heelflip. I tried to end it by filming a heelflip to challenge Dave, but I couldn’t land one so I went inside angry.
