skate journal: flatground struggles at the dark school (aug 21, 2018)
After a long day at work and some food I ended up at the school across the street in the back alley. The lights aren’t great, but there are a couple good spots. The PJ shoes felt weird initially again. Kickflips did not come easy. Nothing did. Struggled with halfcab flip, heelflip. I had thought about f/s halfcab heeflip all day and wanted to land one. But between the new shoes and the big setup I couldn’t. The session was seriously terrible except a first try treflip and the fact that my feet and knees didn’t hurt at all.. until the next day when I woke up with a bad case of Plantar Fasciitis. Argh
