I’ve had several depressing session in a row. So what does any sane skater do in this situation? Blame their setup! Ha. I switched my hanger to a wide hanger. It was family day and since everyone else sleeps in I had to get my skating in early. I went to the research center around 10. It would also mark the windiest point of the day. I was going to go to red curbs for the nollie noseslide, but since it was sunny I figured the research center would be warmer. To my dismay the back area of the research center was totally shaded, dark, and cold. I tried a few nollie noseslides and got close so I setup the phone. But then every couple of tries the wind would blow my phone over. UGH. It was a constant battle for awhile until I finally just put my phone at the base of the light pole. I went on to be incredibly frustrated. Almost to the point of focusing my board. I probably tried the trick for about an hour. It was really depressing. I couldn’t really do flip tricks in between tries do to the wind. I did two of the worst ones you can imagine. I have two more days to try that trick for the game. Not sure if I will try it again.<\/p>\n

Then I went to campus and started at this little manual pad. After doing so many manual in my garage on a sheet of wood I hoped that I would benefit from it. I think I did. I got manual, nose manual, manual front 180 out, front 180 nose manual (took a long time) and a 3rd try switch 180 manual. I came close to manual back 180 out (never done it at a real spot) and tried some halfcab nose manuals which weren’t close.<\/p>\n

Then I went to the nearby ledge. I wanted 10 tricks and I got 10 tricks. Noseslide, noseslide fakie, front 50, crooks, front 50 shove, front 5-0, back 50, switch noseslide, switch front noseslide, halfcab noseslide. It took awhile. I hucked some flippers which felt ok. For once I wasn’t completely depressed about my skating. I still struggled with front 50s, but they felt a little better with the wider\/higher trucks. Same with crooks. I didn’t like how the trucks seemed wider then the board though.<\/p>\n
