More wind. Ugh. Wanted to skate flat a bit before going out to dinner with Liz and then seeing Black Dots, but it was really windy. Ended up attempting to skate Rampy, but man it felt tight and I was struggling. The new trucks weren’t turning too well for me. It never fails, as soon as I talk trash it haunts me. I make fun of Indys and comment on how Thunders are the best so of course my new Thunders treated me like crap. I did a few basics though (the magic formula for the next 5 tricks is to subtract the kickflip): Kickflip front 50, kickflip front smith, kickflip back 50 fakie, fakie kickflip pivot fakie, kickflip front rock. I gave up after all those flippers and started trying switch flips in flat. You don’t have to subtract the kickflips on this though since I didn’t land any. I did get super close multiple times though and quite a few felt like I knew what I was doing (don’t worry I still don’t). <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
