B\/s flip, terrible f\/s flip.  Halfcab flip \/ fs hc flip.  Got a heelflip.  Wanted to to both halfcab heels.  I&#8217;m not sure why anymore, but I remembered I had an old 8.5&#8243; deck in the car and felt like comparing.  After a quick swap out I was able to get a f\/s halfcab heel first try.  Ha.  I think at this point in time I have realized I don&#8217;t land flip tricks on a regular basis with any setup so might as well make other stuff more fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube aligncenter wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/sbp9OBTs66U?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then I went to Longmont to meet Dave, Dave L and Jack.  Right before I pulled in the wind picked up fierce.  I almost went home.  I was there first.  I just did slappies for awhile.  Then since the wind helped going east, but you couldn&#8217;t go west I just did a line of dropin, manual the brick median, noseslide and eventually got a bad back 50.  The Dave&#8217;s and Jack showed at the same time.  The wind made for a pretty subdued session.  We skated though.  Jack did his nosepick pivot pretty quick.  Dave did a couple nose manual 360 things.  Dave L was on the manual tip.  I was posing front crooks on the ledge as well as kickflips over the brick median.  The first couple felt so close.  I should have done it then, because it went away.  I didn&#8217;t really do anything else.  Dave had some pivots on the bank to curb part, the cool back 180 nosepick.  Jack started trying something that was film worthy and I gladly put myself out of misery and just filmed.  He got a banger.  Oh yeah, I had new shoes.  NB# 379s.  They seem to potentially be one of those perfect shoes.  The first day was good, I hope they rest are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">(setup 8.25\/8.5 null lazer deck, venture ftc 5.8s v-lights, venom 91a bushings, no washers inside the axles, 52mm bones sft v5 wheels, new balance numeric 379 tan size 12, footprints 5mm insoles\/thin rubbery adidas insole)<br>(pain level 5\/10) <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Had to send some Stubborns DVDs off so I went to the self service kiosk at the Valmont USPS and skated around there.
