bridge kicker so we hit that up. \u00a0It&#8217;s lit super good at night. \u00a0I was feeling really good with lots of energy still and went for kickflip right out of the gate. \u00a0I was going faster than my normal comfort zone, but still went for it first try and landed it. \u00a0Felt amazing. \u00a0Three tries later I rolled away from 360 flip. \u00a0First try pop shove. \u00a0A few tries for a bad backside flip and I&#8217;m already content with the spot. \u00a0What a rare feeling for me. \u00a0I almost never land tricks quickly. \u00a0I tried some fakie tricks, but suck at pushing switch\/fakie mongo so couldn&#8217;t get the speed. \u00a0Front shoves took awhile again, but I eventually got a bad one. \u00a0Mike put down a few nice front shoves and a mean fakie f\/s bigspin. \u00a0Sean was rattling off tricks too. \u00a0One foot, no comply, half cab and more that I can&#8217;t remember. \u00a0Jake got kickflip and tried quite a bit more. \u00a0I don&#8217;t remember what all he got, but fakie flips wrecked him and he called it quits. \u00a0Carleigh was in a battle with kickflips. \u00a0She took a quick break for an easy pop shove, but was eating shit on almost every kickflip attempt. \u00a0Ouch. \u00a0Sean shut down the session with a b\/s 360 no comply. \u00a0Rad. \u00a0Super fun session. \u00a0Some of the best I&#8217;ve felt on a skateboard.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brought boards up to MRKT after work and invited a crew to skate campus after since it was so nice out. \u00a0Carleigh and Jake signed up for the session. \u00a0After selling boards we rolled into campus and were quickly exposed to this. \u00a0Pretty creepy. \u00a0After that we headed out to the Clark building area. \u00a0The [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[38],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1694","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-skate-journal"],"wppr_data":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p1j9K4-rk","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1694","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1694"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1694\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1694"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1694"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1694"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
