skate journal: some valmont garage skating on a rainy day (april 27, 2024)

After brunch for Ollie’s birthday I had some free time. It was raining so I went to the mellow valmont garage. Rolled around a while trying to get a little warmed up. Settled on the front axle kickflip out which took about 10 minutes. After that I tried some flippers then quite a few kick back tail stall attempts. Some of which were close. Flip tricks didn’t go so good in that I couldn’t get heelflip or treflip. I did get kickflip, fakie flip, halfcab flips both ways, fakie big flip, varial flip, bs flip. Went in on a lot of treflips at the end and could not get one. It was pretty frustrating.
