skate journal: more douglass struggles and then dog park anger (aug 10, 2025)
On a nice day I went driving looking for a new spot, but ended up at Douglass again. I didn’t feel great on my board to start, which I did on the side. About lost my mind unable to kickflip or 50 the curb initially. Would eventually get a line that I hardly remember anymore. Like front 5-0 then kickflip flyout. I had thought I’d do treflip flyout too. Nope. Really I didn’t do anything. Went to the front as a storm appeared to be rolling in. It would of course never rain. I had some okay noseslides, and a couple crooks. Then I went in on front 50s. As you can see I didn’t really get it. I really do not want to go back there and try anymore.
Then I went to dog park. Not sure why. I should have waited for Dave to be able to skate. There were some toddlers playing cat/mouse. Like little kids without scooters even just playing. That got on my nerves for some dumb reason and then when I bailed a couple 50s on the lurb I left.
