skate journal: friday dog park pretty fun (march 17, 2023)
Posted in Skate Journal on March 17th, 2023 by corpoAfter a chill Friday at work I went to dog park on a cold afternoon. Luckily the sun came out for most of the hour I skated. Isaac, Robbie were there along with several rippers. I was determined to flip my board a lot, but the cold and my tired legs weren’t having it. They weren’t on ollies either. But I managed to skate somewhat hard and battle through things to get a couple things I was happy with. First, I finally got the Reynolds line I’ve been trying for months. Backside flip, fakie flip, halfcab flip. The b/s flip was total trash, but I was still happy. The other thing was a line of switch front nose the bench then fakie front 50 b/s halfcab out the curb. I had a few mediocre crooks and some better boardslides than normal. Couldn’t get a treflip or heelflip. Didn’t like how large my setup felt. Argh. Trying so hard not to let madness take over.
