About time I got the Splay Rev skate shoes. I was tired after work and it was really windy, but I wanted to try these shoes out. Since they are so wide I had skated a wider board, 8.3. I put Royals on it which wasn’t the best choice. I started at the little circle thing, did a couple back 50 stalls, nollie tails. Then a weird run of pop shove a micro bump, ollie down a 3, noseslide a flagstone bench. Then a line of kickflip the bump, front 180 the 3, switch 180 a manhole, noseslide flop the bench. I went to the main area but the wind got insane and I felt like heading home. Really liked the shoes, but man they made my board feel sooooo small.

(setup 4/10 8.3 pmg, jessup ultragrip, royal ultralights 149, spitfire 52mm 99a f4 classic, splay rev b/w size 12 with remind cush insoles)
(pain level 3/10)
