skate journal: 98 dog park fun (dec 13, 2025)

Kind of a windy morning making it feel chilly when it was actually pretty warm. Most of the 98% dudes were there. Lots of SOTY talk to start. Can’t really remember a whole lot because so many people were there. Jason’s front board kickflip out and kick back tails were great. Dan switch back 180 over the green box was amazing. Bratcher with a bunch of trick on the double kicker bank. Scott with some fakie ollies on it. Donnie was trying an insane boardslide transfer. Preston was ripping a regular board and doing losi grinds on rails. Cass is becoming a flatground wizard. Joe tall back tails and front crooks on the big wood ledge. Wade attacked the metal beam. I’m sure this is much more. I skated alright. Had a fun line I’ve done before of crooks the tall wood ledge then front shove the little kicker. Ted, Cass, Dan and I played halfcab heel for a while. I think Cass and Ted got them, Dan and I were close. I took a while at the end to do halfcab noseslide on the green box and wanted to line it out with front 50 shove on the main bench. But I couldn’t get the 50 at all. Kind of a bummer at the end, but whatevs, it was a fun session.
