skate journal: some lazy school skating in xeros (april 9, 2024)
Been really tired this week. Went over to the school wearing xero’s because I was sick of the pain that skate shoes cause me. I went over to the school on a weird setup of 8.25 with 8.5 slappy trucks. And I would really like it. Because you know, I like everything the first time. I was lazy, was interrupted by people often. Went home and regrouped and actually tried a few ollies and flippers. Nothing really of note though. It’s crazy the difference in shoes. Like some of the movements I made to avoid pain were no longer necessary in the Xeros. But that doesn’t mean they are great for skating.
(setup 8.25 pmg, jessup ultragrip, slappy 8.5, spitfire f4 99a 51mm classic, xero kelso with currex runpro insoles)
(pain level 3/10)
