Another day wearing glasses and trying to avoid sunlight I went to campus before work for some flatground.\u00a0 I went to the flagstone ledge area and mostly hid in the covered area.\u00a0 I downloaded some random skate dice app to use as a warm up.\u00a0 It did some basic tricks to start with like nollie back 180, switch shove, helipop, etc.\u00a0 It was fun.\u00a0 Then I tried halfcab\u00a0flips for way too long before getting a couple really slow ones.\u00a0 I\u00a0ollied onto the ledge after and came remotely close to dropping into cali grind on the sidewalk.\u00a0 Took a while for heelflips too.\u00a0 I hucked a lot of nollie\/switch flips and were close to both.\u00a0 Committed, but didn’t get my feet on.\u00a0 Couldn’t get a treflip\u00a0which is always depressing.\u00a0 I think the tighter bushings I’ve been rocking hurt treflips.\u00a0 Man did I even land anything else?\u00a0 I did a crooks or two, noseslides.\u00a0 Ended trying kickflip then front 50.\u00a0 I got into a couple front 50s, but never grinded and landed one.\u00a0 Argh.\u00a0 I wasn’t too depressed when I left skating, but upon writing this I am. I really hated how my kickflips felt. I wasn’t popping the tail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So after work I tried low trucks again. And I loved it. I warmed up with some slappies in between some longboarders then skated some flat on the side of the school. I had some new wheels and bearings too. Spits 51mm. They felt great. My kickflips felt sooo much better. I was 3-3 on heelflips at one point too. I had a few initial tricks that felt good, then kinda went downhill. I mostly hucked all kinds of tricks without really sticking to or landing much. It was fun though.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
