Probably should have just sat home, but instead I went out to check out some recent spots some friends have skated. It’s funny because it’s an area I used to skate often when I lived over there, but it’s totally different now. Except for the old DMV hubba which looked way bigger than I remembered. After some roaming around I started on the ledge first. It’s really good, pretty tall. I got some dinky noeslides to start with, a couple crook jibs, boardslide the end, sw noeslide jibs. Then I went over to the gap area which was not lit well. Took a few tries to ollie it. Then lost my mind trying a line of fakie flip, sw 180, ollie. I was unable to land a fakie flip. Unbelievable. A lady came out to walk her dog and it’s so funny. Here I am making all this noise maybe right outside her window and she apologizes for disrupting me. Awesome. Still couldn’t land the fakie flip though. Settled for a little nose jib 270 on the brick then an ollie. Looked around some more, but didn’t really skate.

Wanting to be lazy I forced myself to meet Dave at dog park. It was colder out than anticipated. There were some others there initially, but they left. Dave was doing amazing crooks/sw crooks transfers on the angled blob curb. I took too long to do a warm up line of ride on grind off the wedge then front shove to fakie on the green kicker. I think Dave did sw slappy crooks transfer so butter it was amazing. I tried to do a line of crooks the wood ledge then manny the little pad, but my legs were not working and I could not ollie comfortably. Dave did ollie onto the manny pad then boardslide the upper part, noseslide the bench, manual the c pad, shove off the c pad, nollie front tail front shove the curb. So sick. I had a really bad ollie up the manny pad to front board the upper part. Left pretty bummed on how I skated.
