\u00a0John was slaying the back smiths and got a run with a back smith and a 43 shifty. \u00a0Rad. \u00a0Nate was trying the back 5-0 to fakie, but that would have been insane to pull in. \u00a0I got a weird nosegrind over it and then filmed a run with a back 5-0, then front ride along then a backside flip. \u00a0I gotta go into more details though because it&#8217;s way harder then it sounds. \u00a0The ride along was so hard. \u00a0Basically I rode up the quickcrete then turned 90 degrees and rode on the sideways curb down a hill and then came off it on flat. \u00a0I almost took some bad slams just trying to get onto it. \u00a0After awhile I had it down though. \u00a0It doesn&#8217;t show on video how hard it is, but oh well. \u00a0I had been trying the run with a heelflip in it, but kept not getting the heelflip. \u00a0So on one attempt I decided to try a backside flip just cuz and landed it first try. \u00a0People, I never land anything first try. \u00a0This was easily the highlight of anything I&#8217;ve ever filmed solely because I did one of the tricks first try. \u00a0And yes the flatground tricks in my Off The Couch part are the favorite part of my part. \u00a0Sorry, I&#8217;m still in love with PJLWL.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>John, Nate and I headed up to the Fort pretty early. \u00a0We were skating Northside by 11:00 am and were the only ones there. \u00a0I was very slow to warm up, but ended up trying my same ol line. \u00a0Wallie the back bump thing, ollie a hump, roll in, back 5-0 the brick bank then [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[38],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-886","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-skate-journal"],"wppr_data":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p1j9K4-ei","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/886","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=886"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/886\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=886"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=886"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=886"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
