On another cold day with flurries I met Sean at the puddle riddled dog park. I was trying to channel the anger towards the shooting into skating. It kind of worked. At times I skated hard with more drive than I’ve had in awhile. Sean was stuck on front nosegrinds on the new bench which was funny because he ended up doing like 20 in a row. He was trying lines to bump over the orange barrier. He would eventually get front 5-0 180, fakie nosegrind, halfcab manny the crack pad, kickflip a parking block, then heelflip from the decked wedge over the orange barrier. Sick line! I had got one that sounds pretty good on paper. Crooks the new bench, front 5-0 the cinder block, ollie the wedge to barrier. I would later almost get crooks, front 50 180, halfcab flip, ollie the barrier. But I had taken a weird turn and didn’t really have the speed for the ollie and kind of did the classic Glen of wallieing up and down. Some flip tricks had worked like fakie bigflip and halfcab flip. I took too long to get a halfcab noseslide. Not sure how that trick has gotten hard for me. At times I really wanted a bigger board, other times was super happy with the 8.25. Sean made himself get 4 heelflips over the barrier which wasn’t always easy with the breeze. I got into a couple switch crooks on the cinder block that would have made my day. Sean and I ended with a game of SKATE just before the snow started up again. It was one of my better games in awhile. I got kickflip, fakie flip, halfcab flip, f\/s halfcab flip, 360 flip, defensive fs flip, bs flip, but since I was playing Sean I clearly still lost. He got me with halfcab heels both ways, back heel, back big and ended me with switch front shove.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
