Solo mission to the Basemar shopping center which is only about a mile from my house. \u00a0There is a weak little bank along a bikepath that I started out on dorking a few tricks like disaster reverts and stuff. \u00a0Then I went to the ollie bump for awhile and amazed myself at how impossible it is for me to ollie higher than 3 inches. It took me at least 5 tries to get a decent ollie over a cardboard box. \u00a0Ugh. \u00a0I had a little run where I manualled the landing of the kicker then ollied into the bikepath bank and 180’d out of it. \u00a0Yippee. \u00a0I was about to try stuff over the cardboard box when a drunk bum popped out from a dumpster and scared the crap out of me. \u00a0He was stumbling all over the landing and stuff so I was over it and rolled over to the curved ledge nearby on campus. \u00a0If I ever manual that thing I would be so happy. \u00a0I ended up getting kicked out after only a couple warm up ollies. \u00a0Then it was flatground time where I almost rolled my ankle on a 360 flip. \u00a0I don’t know how I didn’t. \u00a0It was one of those weird bails where I thought for sure my ankle was done. \u00a0Thankfully not. \u00a0The area I was skating is uphill one way, downhill the other. \u00a0I have had this phobia of downhill skating all my life and decided to just deal with it. \u00a0It ended up working out and I even put together a few lines. \u00a0kickflip, b\/s 180, halfcab flip, frontside flip. \u00a0front shove, varial flip, fakie big flip. \u00a0heelflip, no comply finger flip, 360 flip. \u00a0Most everything I landed was landed horribly except for a few heelflips. \u00a0For some reason heelflips felt amazing. \u00a0Fun solo session.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
