skate journal: small trucks windy flatground (june 12, 2025)
Was sore, side hurting, not overly motivated but it was so nice out after the rain. That is until I went skating. It looked like it would rain more, but instead it just got incredibly windy. For a while on the side of the school I was able to avoid it behind the trees. I had put 8″ team hollows on my 8.25. I almost fell on my first push. I went on to think the setup was okay at times, but really it felt way too small for me. I couldn’t heelflip it which was weird. I had gotten 7 kickflip variations pretty quickly then stalled out and the wind kicked in something fierce so I left.
(setup 3/10 8.25 null time warp, null grip, thunder team hollow 147, spifire f4 99a radial slim green, new balance numeric 430 b/w size 12 half insole and currex runpro insoles)
(pain level 4/10)
