Ollie didn&#8217;t want to skate or let me go anywhere.  It was super nice out so I skated flat in front of the house.  I felt horrible initially and the first ollie felt like it almost pulled a muscle in my groin.  Ugh.  I almost quit immediately, but instead I went on to skate flatground for 2.5 hours and have one of my favorite flatground sessions ever.  Kickflips came, then halfcab flips, fakie bigflip and a few more basics before I started with 360 flips.  I wanted 5 before I moved on.  I got them, took awhile, and they weren&#8217;t close, but I would eventually get to 5.  Tried a line of f\/s halfcab flip then f\/s flip.  Got it quick.  The f\/s flip wasn&#8217;t great, lots of pivot, but whatever.  Then I really started hucking.  Lots of nollie inward heel attempts, got a horrible varial heel.  Well, it wasn&#8217;t all that bad, just slow and I landed it sideways.  But it was bolts of course.  Ha.  I started trying fakie treflips and like 3rd or 4th try rolled away.  Whoa.  So I turned around, did a front shove, hucked a nollie treflip and landed it.  Feeling pretty hyped I went for treflip next (I had to avoid cars for a bit so I was pushing along the sidewalk so I could still count it as one line) and put down one of my best tres ever.  I felt so great.  I landed all 3 of them good.  I wasn&#8217;t skating fast, but that&#8217;s me.  I had put the 3 3flip challenge on my list of things to do by age 40 before the reactive arthritis hit me.  Since I would have to wait between cars often I was giving JP the play by play over gchat and he told me I had to do a switch 3 flip too.  So I tried.  I got really close.  Never both feet on, but it seems doable.  Also hucked front heels, Rick flips, got a b\/s halfcab heel first try, switch varial flip first try, several heelfips, landed both feet on a nollie flip for the first time in a few years, b\/s flips.  Watched a biker run into my neighbors car.  Hucked f\/s cab kickfips for awhile and landed 3 that would count on defense because of too much pivoting and not a fluid motion.  But I think it could come!  I finished after hucking a few flatground airwalks so I could spice up my airwalk post.  I am loving the low trucks.  Oh yeah, I had new NB# PJ shoes.  The brown\/gum ones.  Clearly they skated awesome and man it&#8217;s a good feeling having a PJ Ladd pro model shoe.<\/p>\n<p>(setup 8.1 null venture lows thunder bushings 52mm stf v3 nb# pj stratford 533 brown\/gum)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Was challenged by @boredzinejp to learn airwalk to fakie for #theglenandjosholdfartlongdistanceinstagramtricksuperchallenge.
