After a chill day I went to Douglass in the afternoon on a cool day with snow threatening. I didn’t feel too good when I got on my board and would struggle for the most part. I started on the side with some ultra basic warm ups and progressed to a decent warm up line for me. Got halfcab flip on flat, nollie back tail the lurb, b/s flip the micro hip then a fakie flip on flat before bailing a fakie bigflip. That would be the highlight for me. I went on to take a million tries to get some ultra slow front 50s on the downhill part of the lurb. I partially blame all the salt, but wow I really have lost all confidence on that trick. After that I went behind the school and went in on the double noseslide Cass and I had tried months ago. I would get close, but not that close. It was fun trying hard, but a bummer not having the confidence to go into the noseslide faster to make it easier. Went out front to maybe skate more, but was tired so I went home.
