There were a couple that I landed on the front wheels and almost got around, but fell off.<br>I had posed other tricks in between, but didn&#8217;t really land anything.  Still I was hyped on skating an hour of flat early before eating.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After some food I met up with Jake and Rob on campus as the sun and a breeze came out.  Jake and I had arrived first at the new meet up spot and warmed up with some flatground.  Around the time Rob arrived Jake and I were trying the warm up line of kickflip, no comply 180, fakie flip.  I got it in a few tries.  Angry Jake started to show when he would land on a bunch of fakie flips, but not get it.  Rob and I went up the stairs and started goofing around on the double snow section.  It started as ollies, 180s and graduated to manuals and kickflips.  Ha ha.  I had a fun one of switch front 180 then back 180.  Also ollie then kickflip.  Was trying kickflip then b\/s flip, but never got the kickflip with the added speed.  Jake got front 180 then f\/s halfcab.  Rob shut it down with the gap in\/out manual.  Jake would get the kickflip\/no comply 180\/fakie flip line and we moved into campus.  We did some jersey barrier wallrides.  Then ended up at the little downhill curb\/ledge.  I think Rob got slappy crooks, back 50 and front tail.  I don&#8217;t think Jake liked it very much.  I had a couple fun line.  Halfcab flip then front 50.  Heelflip then front 50 shove.  Next was the micro bump to hill for a frustrating, but fun session.  Jake beat me to kickflip and returned the beam favor from earlier.  But then would go on to struggle with frontside flips.  I got a few flippers.  Kickflip, fakie flip, first try halfcab flip, super slow backside flip, a battle of a treflip but it did feel pretty great, f\/s halfcab flip and ended with a fun no comply 180.  Rob was struggling with kickflip then tapped into his inner Neil and lined it out with a no comply shove.  Jake had tried fakie 3 shove too.  I couldn&#8217;t get heelflip.  We left and on the way back I forced myself into getting a heelflip.  It was a fun day.  I had more energy than I&#8217;ve had in awhile.  Maybe it does help to take a day off once in awhile.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">(setup 8.25 colfax deck, jessup ultragrip, venture 5.6 cast baseplate v-hollow hanger, venom 88a bushings, spitfire 52mm f4 99a classic shape, new balance numeric 212 black\/pink size 11.5, footprint mid elite insoles)<br>(pain level 2\/10!!!)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Feeling anxious early on a winter day I went over to the school armed with a 10 x 10 list.
