Which was good because my legs didn&#8217;t have much anyway.  I had thought of this spot and after some lurking ended up just skating here.  The ledge is somehow taller than it looks.  And I&#8217;m not just saying that because I haven&#8217;t tried to skate a ledge in a couple months.  I warmed up with some no pop lines like switch front nose then fakie shove.  Noseslide to fakie then fakie bigspin.  Got to crooks then kickflip which I thought would come quick, but no, never landed a crooks.  Unheard of!  That ledge isn&#8217;t really a good crooks ledge though.  I got a few very slow front 50s that barely grinded.  One halfcab noseslide that felt pretty good but then I couldn&#8217;t do it again.  I didn&#8217;t film long because I didn&#8217;t really feel like filming considering how badly I was skating.  I got a line of ollie onto the pad, front 180 off then switch noseslide the ledge going so slow.  It felt cool though.  Got one ultra slow jib fakie front nose.   Couldn&#8217;t get a back 50.  I got a few flippers I haven&#8217;t done in a couple months.  Varial flip and both halfcab flips.  I was pretty beat, but overall pretty happy that I skated and started trying to pop onto a ledge again.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">(setup 7\/10 generator 8.5\/14.25, jessup ultragrip, thunder team hollow 149 royal bushings, 52mm bones stf v1 103a, new balance numeric 212 b\/w size 12 spenco 3\/4 thinsole orthotic and 272 insoles)<br>(pain level 3\/10 unbelievable!  after skating for 3 days in a row)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After a fun day of hanging with the family I got out for a short session.
