skate journal: garage flatground fun (march 3, 2019)
On a snowy and cold Sunday I went out to the garage to finally skate this weekend. This winter is getting very old. I started with a few no pop manuals on the sheet of wood. Then started with some shoves, no complies, etc. Took a few tries to get kickflips, then did fakie flip, not too long to get a heelflip, and even less time to get a terrible fakie heelflip. After that I was doing treflips towards the garage door, random other tricks on the way back. I had a goal of doing 3 treflips in a row or at least a total of 10. I gave up on nollie flips and switch flips. I had gotten a few treflip, I think total I had 3 sets of 2 in a row, but never got a 3rd. The last tre was elusive, but I would eventually get it. I had also kind of done that heelflip body varial again. It’s pretty fun. I ended trying varial heels until I got one with the hands down. I had fun, but man I’m sick of winter and would like to skate outdoors on the weekends at least.
