skate journal: dog park with nolan, sean, jack, jj (aug 19, 20200
Went to dog park after work to meet up with Nolan who was rolling through town. Jack and Sean were trying fakie crooks when I got there as part of some challenge. Jack got it both ways, I’m not sure if Sean did or not. I don’t remember much of anything from me other than I tried crooks shove (the hard way). There were a couple that felt possible. Nolan showed and we chilled for awhile and caught up. Jack and I started messing around with switch flips. Jack told me ‘just do one right now’ and it resonated. I didn’t land one, but it did seem to somehow make me think it was easier. Jack got a few of them. Then I mostly pointed the phone camera at everyone. Jack’s treflip was amazing. Stupid phone glich. Sean’s shifties looked so fun. JJ rips, I haven’t skated with him this much before, he has a unique bag and it’s fun to watch. Seeing Nolan skate again was so awesome. His skating is so fun to be around. The blunt bigspin was 2nd try. Hopefully we see him soon!
