Park was blown out with returning college students or something. I skated the adjacent curb. Did a bunch of bs & fs slappies with minimal run up- some “one inch punch” type stuff. Just in my own little world.

Went outside without stretching landed a few kickflips in a row(not typical being 44) to start things off and it started down-pouring. Retreated back inside to the couch.

Drove into town to hit up the local park. Was greeted with some new "artwork", tried to pour water on it thinking it was chalk, it wasn't. Ended up skating street with a friend. Did a front tailslide and a clean half cab nose manny, haven't done those tricks in years, felt good. We parted ways right before it rained.


Piss on it for me.

It was hot af.   I started drinking too early into the session.   Got a personal slappy first still.   Then ate two piece chicken meal with a biscuit from a gas a station guzzled down with a few more beers as I watched my friends rip.   Then our wives and girlfriends simultaneously started to phone us with the "where are you at" text.   The session winded to a halt.   The sun had won anyway.

too humid in the northeast lately, I do a couple grinds and suddenly I could win a wet t shirt contest. Last session I did get a fakie bigflip manual on a downhill pad, two shirts later.

Went to a random foundation that’s been destroyed it was mad humid but got a little line.

Kf up and over a bank to bank manual and fs shuv off a loading dock, totally fluked it.

I can’t wait for the fall and winter hoodies and baggy pants….

Finally back tailed and front smithed my new curb spot. Both of those tricks are super hard on small curbs for me. Couple decent 360 flips and kickflips, stuck a switch flip, then slammed hard on one. Been trying to clean up my shuvs in all directions while skating faster too.

Got to park, did "stop n' chat", pissed down with rain.
Got grinder and fixed a couple of popped up crete spots and filled a hole with bondo.
Didn't take picture or look for social media adulation, so did it even happen?
Hey, hey, hey. Don't be mean. We don't have to be mean because, remember, no matter where you go, there you are.

Not to most people under the age of 30 unfortunately. Crustodians need not for likes, they're fueled by the stoke itself. But I'm sure you know that already <3.

Tried to skate wooden manuel pads on my campus with homies. Security golf cart rolls up and smashes into the corner of one fucking it all up. Neither us nor the security know how to react. I guess he finally processed what just happened so he starts getting pissed. He tells us to dip so we head to a different place and sit down at some tables and skate a bit of flat.

Same guy rolls up 15 mins later with 2 cops and checks us all for warrants and threatens the homies with trespassing and then reported me to the dean. So wack cuz I skate these spots every day with no issue.

Skated the park after that.

My last session was one year ago and I don’t really know why...I just don’t want to skate right now (in 22 years of skateboarding)
I’ve made a thread about it in what ever.
I wait till it comes back I guess.

solo flatground (not really solo, was with my nearly four year old who was doing his thing also). it went magic. in the space of about 40 mins (quite a lot of which was just chatting with my boy) i landed about 75% of my whole repetoire, finishing with my first switch flip in over a year. i think it's genuinely the most stoked i've been off a flat ground trick since my first regular kickflip. kiddo was hyped for me! feeling good. actually my knees feel kind of weird, but aside from that...

Nice. I had a similar experience in my last session. I tried front boards on this low flatbar and rolled away from one (not first try, but the first in my life!) and followed it up by a nice heelflip (first try during this session) in a  line. I had to watch the clip all week to believe it is true!
why come?

Went for the first time to the local semi-DIY after a three week injury break. I was too excited and wanted too much, hence not much really worked. But got some nice no comply bigspins in the bank, so i won't complain too much...

I live in a tiny village in Hokkaido, my options for skate spots are incredibly limited. In Tokyo for two days and a night of family business with the in-laws from Honshu. I almost didn't bring my board, catching the bus from two prefectures over for two busy days with the family, I didn't want to drag my board and extra shoes around and maybe not have time/energy to skate anyway.
Came to my senses and brought my board and even though I was exhausted I dragged my carcass out later than I ever do anything these days (11:00pm haha) and I went city skating. It was fucking amazing.

there is this grass gap that i want to nollie.  its probably the equivalent of 6 or 7 stairs and with short run up.  i have gotten so close so many times (over two sessions) but havent pulled it. but last nights session at it was better than my first so hopefully third times a charm.

I went for a quick session before dawn and finally realized I could do all my tricks better when using the nose as tail. That tail is just too short for me. It‘s a DLX Dreamer shape.  The board is at the end of its lifecycle now and I got a Muska lined up, the tail of which is huge like a shovel.
why come?

I went to the local park and it was filled with kids and tweakers, so I went to a different park that's usually empty.  I slammed hard in a bowl and fucked up my ribs AGAIN and broke my glasses, so I just gave up and went back to bed.
