My daughter has started skating off her own back with one of her friends. I showed her how to Ollie this morning, hero dad moment, don’t get many of them once they’re teens! Shocked these legs had any pop in them, after all that stuff. Don’t call it a come back!!! Because it’s not, haha.

Pulled my hamstring doing an illegal and extremely basic trick, so that’s me out for a week or so.

I keep slamming doing the most basic stuff, it’s so frustrating

Nightmare, hope it heals fast. Lightly pulled my Achilles on I think the 15th. Skated through but after skating last Saturday I’ve felt properly done in so just holding off for a moment.

Went to a local park but got a bit frustrated trying and failing many of my go to’s.

On the way home, I came across a closed road so, before diverting, I stopped and played static tricks on a kerb in the middle of nowhere.

Rough surface, no roll out.

Best time ever.

Edit: Dadcam has somehow corrupted this file so I’ve got no show and tell for Insta. :sob:

I want to go tonight but equally dont want to. Like I’ve hit a brick wall which says ‘sod this bollocks’.

I did go and I had a good time within my own space. Achilles held up, knee was a little off but feels alright now I’m back home.

I definitely have something going on in my head though. Imposter/shouldn’t be there/too old etc etc. Really not sure what has caused this but it is a complete blag.

Thanks, it is weird and I’ve been around long enough to know I’m not but it is very odd.

I went to Selfridges bowl, which is air-conditioned, and then on to BaySixty6, which isn’t. And now I can’t stop drinking- no amount of cold milk or ice water is enough. I get a sort of drinking frenzy after skating when it’s hot.

Short session earlier, nothing much going on. Need to shoe goo my Adidas Dennis now - 24 days since I started skating in them.

Feel like these are dying quicker than usual. Maybe it’s because I’m skating more / actually skating. Haha.

Skated the park in Vannes today, last time I was there I spent about 45 minutes not doing a FS Bigspin over a hip, leaving annoyed and in a sweaty mess.

10/11 months later, did it in like 10 goes and wasn’t scared at all skating the park. Amazing what happens when you actually skateboard consistently!

I never shoo goo anything now, it was all woollies stick on soles

Unfortunately I have to sg my shoes after 3-4 weeks, preventative measures so to speak. It is mainly to stop the upper splitting from the sole which happens really quickly with me :frowning:

Banging skate this morning at Chester skatepark…Met some new people and pretty much dodged the rain.

I even did a kickflip in a line first go and I hate kickflips I force myself to do one every time I go skate to try and ‘keep’ them I think I hate them because I didnt have to think about doing them before they just sort of worked.

I’d rather do an Impossible than a kickflip

Friendly vibes and chilled session stoked !

I didn’t know Shoe Goo was still a thing. I used to use it years ago but I seem to think it didn’t last long before peeling off.
