skate journal: is it time to give up on treflips? (feb 18, 2026)

Posted in Skate Journal on February 20th, 2026 by corpo

Went out to the garage on another cool and windy night. Started off decent. Got several kickflips. Went right to treflips. Roughly 80 failed attempts later I focused my board. Worst part is none of them even felt good and I never got both feet on any of them.

skate journal: garage flatground kind of fun (feb 17, 2026)

On a cool and windy night I went out to the garage to skate flat for an hour. It ended up being pretty fun. I did some warm ups then started the flippers. Kickflips went alright, fakie flip. B/s flip took surprisingly long which was a bit frustrating and I don’t think I even got a clean one. Halfcab flip first try. Got a sloppy fakie bigflip which is pretty hard in that little space. Then went in on heelflips which took quite a while, but felt good to get one. Hucked nollie tres for a while after. Some were close, most were not.
