Seriously Nate was ripping. \u00a0Nollie big heels, hippy jumps, switch varial heels, nollie f\/s flips, everything. \u00a0Me, I did ok for a \u00a0bit with f\/s halfcab flips, but totallys lost my shit trying 3 flips. \u00a0I was trying a run of front shove, 360 flip, kickflip wallride and I rarely got past the front shove. \u00a0At one point I threw my board. \u00a0I yelled some bad words. \u00a0I attempted to focus my board (luckily just like everything else today I failed). \u00a0I freaked out. \u00a0I think basically all of the frustration from not being able to skate much lately came out. \u00a0Carleigh had shown up too. \u00a0So here&#8217;s an apology to Nate, Neil, Brian and Carleigh. \u00a0I&#8217;m sorry for sucking so bad and freaking out. \u00a0To end the session Nate and I bombed the little bikepath hill switch. \u00a0It was pretty damn scary and cheered me up. \u00a0I had no idea how you bail out of a switch hill bomb so when I got the speed wobbled I got scared. \u00a0We made it though. \u00a0Horrible session for me. \u00a0Horrible. \u00a0Might be time to retire the DCs seeing as how my ollies were wearing into my toe. \u00a0Maybe that&#8217;s my excuse, old shoes? \u00a0Ha, no way, I straight sucked.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hyped that it was Friday, nice out, and I was getting off work early. \u00a0I felt a little tired so I took my old man nap and then made some calls while watching one of the funner skate videos around &#8211; Corridor Of Shame (Thanks Jack). \u00a0Nate was ready first so we were to meet [&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-1955","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-vx","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1955","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=1955"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1955\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1955"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1955"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1955"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
