After work on a cool day met Will at Valmont toddler park. Will had forgot his normal skate shoes so was bumming on wearing his “work” shoes but he still skated. I had a kickflip to fakie on the mellow bank, hucked some nollie cabs over a hip, hucked big heels on the mellow bank. Then we skated the pool for a while. I’ve wanted to axle stall it for a long time. It was a bit of a battle, but I was happy to do it and carving around into it was fun too. Will took way less tries to get the rock fakie.

Over at dog park my foot had really started hurting. Eric was there. He had some good crooks, front tails, front and back 50s on the lurb, think he had some heelflips. I really struggled with pop. Had a line of slow front 50 180 on the lurb then halfcab noseslide Eric’s box.
