After dinner I went swimming for a couple hours with the kids then immediately picked up Jake and Jason and headed to Valmont. \u00a0While Jason waxed before testing Jake and I did a couple laps around trying to manual every possible manny pad on the way. \u00a0That’s 9 each way. \u00a0So hard. \u00a0I think we each got about 3 of them total, but hey we were just warming up. \u00a0A little ways into the ledge session Jason slammed and got a shinner. \u00a0Not, just any old shinner, but a horrendous and horrible shinner. \u00a0Click here to see<\/a> the blood. \u00a0Not for the weak at heart.Anyways, Jake and I skated for a bit longer while Jason laid down with his leg elevated. \u00a0I was actually skating better than I have been lately. \u00a0The new shoes don’t have very good feel though and I’m kinda all over the place. \u00a0Jake and I both did runs with ollies up the ledge, kickflips on flat then front 180’s off the dock. \u00a0I tried another one with sw front 180 up the ledge, no comply shove on flat then front shove off the loading dock, but I didn’t commit. \u00a0Felt like it was possible at least. \u00a0Jake had some good front tails. \u00a0We tried to race to 3 3 flips, but neither of us got there. \u00a0I landed two of them, but they were both so bad I think it adds up to less than one. \u00a0I was feeling pretty good on energy and trying lots of flippers in between ledge bails. \u00a0I really didn’t land much, but it felt great to skate hard finally. \u00a0All this swimming has really helped the groin. \u00a0The ledge tricks I got were back noseslide, back board pop out, front board pop out, front noseslide to fakie, weak front tail (but I suck at that trick so yeah!), front 50s, crooks, back 50 and came close to front 50 shove and front 50 to front board popout.Right before leaving we had a little kicker session off the low part of the escalator. \u00a0Jake got nollie and halfcab. \u00a0I got kickflip and close to front shove. \u00a0I did a few kickflips, but they all felt rocketd. \u00a0Ugh. \u00a0I blame it on the bright blue shoes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
