skate journal: some valmont /dog park blah after work (july 1, 2025)
Posted in Skate Journal on July 4th, 2025 by corpoStopped by the parks on my way home. It was hot. Valmont was empty so I started there. I didn’t do anything beyond normal warm ups there. Was bummed at ghost pop over the hip. Did a couple kickflips to fakie on the mellow bank, a noseslide or two on the bump to ledge.
Went over to the plaza. Dennis was there which was great. After some cruising Dennis and I settled in on crooks on the metal bench. He has never done one, but was close. I did several and followed one with perhaps my worst excuse for a treflip to date. I actually didn’t count it but Dennis insisted. He’s too positive. Ha. It started to get incredibly windy so I left.
