skate journal: blue skies depression session (march 11, 2026)

Posted in Skate Journal on March 12th, 2026 by corpo

In the midst of a long work day I managed a quick lunch break session at Blue Skies. It was colder than it’s been in a while. I mostly skated my 8.3 with thunders because the 8.25 slace board was so squeeky. I did not feel good, cruising around I did not feel good even. I had some okay things during the warm up period. But could not commit to anything requiring skills. Near the end I really wanted to ollie the lowest part of the snake rail which is nothing. But I could not do it, I committed and just ran into it. It was a very depressing note to leave on.

Stopped by Boulder park on the way into work. Took my board out and out of nowhere the trucks were incredibly squeaky. What the heck. It was so annoying. Not as annoying as my skating though. I went on to completely suck. Changed to my 8.3/thunder setup and hated it slightly less. I had a lot of bails. Bail, bail bail. Pretty much all I did. Failed a front 50 on the bench and put an end to my old 8.3
