Bummed on only having ~1 hour between work calls into the evening on a nice Friday I went over to the school. I had made my first real setup change in a while – same deck, ace lows, 53s instead of 51s. It felt really good actually. I still struggled and had no confidence, but I’m also still breaking in newish shoes still. After about the first 30 minutes I think I had only landed kickflip and b/s flip as far as flip tricks go. But I would go on to get a couple treflips, halfcab flips, fakie flips and close to a few more. Then it was back to work.

Brought boards to Monico’s parents house so they could bring them to him and went to Arvada park since I was close. It was cold, flurries at times. The scene was ~20 rollerbladers, ~10 scooter dudes and ~8 skaters. I could not get going to save my life. Literally couldn’t even do a no comply bigspin on the round bank. Went to the back to try a line of axle stall the bank to curb to quick kickflip to fakie on the bank. Never got it. Bob was there. Talked to him for a while and was way too sore and cold to start up again after that.
