I&#8217;ve never even done that up a curb.  I figured maybe a good first goal is to get up a 2&#8243; tall curb.  I got a couple up the curb and I could see how maybe I could manual it, but then I went home to hang with Inida.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Gv3LHqHtBpg\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>All day I had thought about the fact that I had to give up on front 50 the day before.  It was eating at me.  I&#8217;ve never liked the Venture 8&#8243; high trucks so I had put low trucks on.  I wanted to see if I had better luck with lows.  I got to Douglass after a mostly lazy day feeling anxious about trying the 50.  I started with some lines and was having fun.  Kickflips felt good, tried a couple front tailsides on the curb on the side, had some good feeling wallride nollies, noseslides and crooks on the main ledges.  Tried a line starting with front board then b\/s flip.  I had no real plans after that and I only got one b\/s flip, but I followed it with a first try halfcab flip that felt awesome and then totally posed a 360 flip noseslide which I was obviously not close to whatsoever (although it kinda felt possible).  After that I went in on the front 50s.  I almost got it first try.  But after that it was awhile.  I was getting into the 50 more consistently at least.  I had a few that felt like they would be makes, but I was going slow and I hadn&#8217;t waxed the ledge.  I was trying noseslides, crooks and 3 flips on the way back.  I finally got a front 50.  Whew.  Then I setup my phone and got another one.  I know I&#8217;m going really slow, but it felt good to at least do it and not give up.  I do think the low trucks are good for me too.  They have a quicker pop and being that tiny bit closer to the ledge in the grind feels good.  I should have kept skating, but I left after the second 50.<\/p>\n<p>(setup 8.25 null dream machine deck, venture 5.25 awake lows, stock white bushings, 3 washers inside each axle, 51mm v1 bones stf wheels, es swift 1.5 gray size 11.5, footprint low profile gamechanger insoles)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was on my way to skate with Dave in Longmont when I got a text from India that she would be coming home to hang out soon.
