And since I barely got the minimum fakie front crook I figured I shouldn&#8217;t go to hard.  I did a few of the no comply shoves and they were all super fun.  Kickflips were not fun, grinding transition was not that fun either.  I did get close to my line of 50s down the pond, noseslide the bump to ledge then kickflip to fakie on the low part of a hump.  But I couldn&#8217;t get the kickflip.  It got me really frustrated.  I also really struggled to ollie up the euro.  The scene got less fun when cute carver girl left and was replaced by a non social dude and a rollerskating girl followed by a bunch of youth.  I tried to end of halfcab flip on the bank, but instead just bashed my toe.  I had worn vulcs to try and mix it up and while they felt fine for park skating I didn&#8217;t really like them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">(setup 8.5 null vhs deck, jessup ultragrip, venture 5.8 cast plate ti hanger royal bushings, 52mm snot pink\/yellow swirl 101a, new balance numeric 272 maroon size 11.5 half insoles)<br>(pain level 3\/10)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Went to Valmont park after a rainy day.
