On an incredibly nice day I journeyed to upper east side of Manhattan for this park Suciu claims ‘best park‘ on. My body was not doing well, like just so achy and sore and not wanting to move quickly. So my initial rolls around the park were sketchy, everything was actually sketchy. I did a warm up line that was so lame. It was like a brief nose jib on the bank to bar, an attempt at boardslide down the last bank to curb, then a bump to front 50. I think I gave up on that. Did some rock ‘n rolls on the smallest part of the bank to curb. Had some bump to crooks eventually. Noseslides down the hubba were sketchy. Tried a line for a while of crook a bench, kickturn on the bank to bank, noseslide to fakie the amazing mellow bank to ledge. The noseslide to fakie took me FOREVER. I had some other fun crooks and noseslides on the ledges on the far side, one kickflip on the bank. After a while I just had to give up, my body was not working at all. It sucked. The park was so amazing, the few skaters there were nice, the weather was good. Oh well, hope to skate there again.
