Skipped out of work on a nice Friday at lunch and met up with Aki, Rob, Dave and Dave L. Aki was already snapping over the parking block and doing kickflips. My knees were killing me and not even cupsoles with orthotics could help. I would try a few no comply flips, but never get one with the flip, some switch spracks, one halfcab flip, kinda close to some fakie tres and posed some switch tricks since they hurt less. Rob had gotten some lines going to kickflip over the parking block, halfcab flips, no comply shove over the parking block. Dave L had some cool manual bonks on the cinder blocks, steezy ollies, nollie over the parking block. Dave had a few no comply variations over the parking block, lots of shoves, varial flip, kickflips, maybe fakie varial flip? Aki did back 180 over the parking block to switch flip, he also had a nice treflip and nollie flip. I’m sure I’m missing a lot of tricks from people. When I’m in a lot of pain or sucking I kind of go into my shell and ignore everything.
