skate journal: short weird willville and some rain (july 11, 2025)

Went to Willville after work with rain threatening. I wanted to start somewhere else so I went back behind the medium pads and kind of found a new curb spot I want to rub brick. It’s like a mini bank to curb spot with some weirdness. I tried this warm up line of switch 180 off a curb, ollie on a mini bank, curve around slappy crook. But I never got the slappy crook in a line. Then I backed up and started trying a kickflip off a bump beforehand. Oh, here’s where it gets weird I had a setup and shoe change so kickflips felt off. 8.3, thunders, vulcs. I would eventually get the kickflip got to the curb again and hucked kick back tail which was not close at all. Then the line started with ollie down the 3 stair. I would get a first try halfcab flip that felt great, but trying to ollie up the 3 felt absolutely impossible. Then I went to the little ledge at the bottom of the main pad, but it started to rain. I had done a couple ultra basics, but the rain it really came so I left.
