skate journal: yellow curbs with rob and neil (jun 3, 2023)

On a rainy day Rob and Neil picked me up and we went to yellow curbs.  It’s been a minute since we’ve been there.  Slappy crooks were fun out of the gate as were front slappys on the super low curb.  Rob and Neil were able to get to manuals and nose manuals pretty quickly, I would never get either.  We had some 50s, lipslides, nollie tails, etc.  Flip tricks didn’t flow like they used to.  Partly because of how much we’ve been skating.  I did a kickflip at one point that I could barely stand up from.   I think Rob got another manual to back lip.  He also did some no comply 5-0s.  We did a few lines combining tricks, look for the clips on Thrasher.  I had a fun line of slappy crook, front slappy, tiny little lipslide.  Also a slappy crook then nollie back tail.  Neil had Cali front 50, no comply 360, lipslide.  Rob manual, no comply 5-0 throw away then slappy crook.  The 303 dudes showed up as we were winding down.  I tried to get a 360 flip and could not do it.  Halfcab flips felt alright though even if I was barely moving.  Looking forward to a day or two off of skating, but already miss Neil.
