skate journal: actual skateboarding at dog park (may 30, 2026)

On a nice morning I went to dog park. Bratcher was there, Jesse would show about when I needed to leave. I was there first, and skateboarding felt doable so I went for it. Lotta basics, hesitant to try some tricks. But man it felt good to be popping the board again. Got some front 50s on the lurb and a shove out which hyped me up. Had some crooks and noseslides. Did a couple kickflips. Took a while to do a fakie flip. Started playing switch rocks with Jack on the little qp. He had several, I would get one and had to bounce right away. Man it felt good to ride a skateboard again and my foot did alright.

(pain level 3/10 foot felt pretty good)
