Gone Skateboarding?

Spent most of the day in the back garden doing nothing as it was too hot. Went skating this evening and managed an hour and a half - had a foot slip on a fallow flip so called it before anything bad happened.

Defo too hot to skate outdoors even when I left just before 10pm.

Left work after 12 hour day, then 10 minutes from home hit a traffiic jam on the motorway took another 50 minutes to get home.

Went to the curbs and managed ro get a trick I’d been working on for a good while for my 50 at 50. Hyped !

Rehab session but not at Rehab :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Kept my head down, not really in the mood but made an effort to be jovial and pleasant where it counted. Considering I rolled my ankle less than two weeks ago I’m in good shape. Looking forward to Voltarol.

Went filming, homie savagely rolled his ankle, that’s a good 6 weeks I reckon on that to be able to go out and get some good clips again.

Bummer all round.

Rough one that, did mine a couple weeks back.

Quick 45 mins tonight. Landed a couple of varial heels and got close to the other few attempts which was nice as it has been a while. Amazing what 1/2” or so difference in foot placement makes.

Laters.

First razz down the local DIY (Burrows, Wirral) this year the other night. Sunny evenings down there are the raddest.

Out tonight…couple of things I’d like to land, but I’m not calling shit as a) I’m really tired having taken my son to Burton upon Trent and back this morning, b) done a half days work and c) my ankle will probably call me a Michael Fabricant as soon as I step on my skateboard.

Wish me luck :slightly_smiling_face:

haha, wasn’t quite there looking at the map, by Tatenhill Airport. Managed to pick up a screw in a rear tyre too :grimacing:

Forgot ankle support but skated anyhow. Worked out fine. Probably skate tomorrow night for a bit as I forgot my hoodie, then the main event on Sat :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

Popped out to local as it is their 10th birthday today which is an achievement in itself. But I’m really old and really tired. Need horlicks and bed not loud music and wheeled toys :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Really fun skate at the local just fucking around on flat and skating a little block.

Still happy to do switch heels and Nollie heels that come off the floor on flat - stoked on that.

Power hour. Had quite a decent skate considering ankle still a little off and I’m still protective of it. Ben Grove on Saturday inspired me to get on a few backside kickflips which is nice as they feel good when they work.

Fun little skate at the curbs just now. Got 5 tricks . 4 filler and one decent which I’m hyped on, after I landed one and realised I hadn’t pressed record. Just want to get this Fifty finished.

Quick half hour last night and should be out tonight. Started throwing out back heel attempts up the wembley/euro gap. You know that point where you first start working something out and look a complete incompetent for the first handful of attempts? If not, you must be gifted, but that was it last night…‘what on earth is that guy doing?’ :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
