skate journal: brief buena vista park sessions (oct 13, 2020)

Steve was doing a little shopping after we played a round of disk golf so I ran over to the park and skated for a bit. They have added some concrete to make the flow a little better and some room for flatground. There is also a wood manny pad and miniramp now. I basically just posed noseslides down the hubba (only committed twice) and tried halfcab flips on the bank. I got neither. I did have some fun back 50s on the qps. Steve joined after a bit and had fun carving around. Then we left.

Later in the day I had to run an errand and decided I’d skated the miniramp for 10 minutes. It was a really weird ramp. Plywood surface and coping that sticks out with cracks between sections. I took a while to get a few of the basics like fakie back smith fakie and front disaster then I split.
