    The weather has actually only just started to turn nice a few weeks ago so I haven't had much time to start getting new tricks done. Spent most of my skate days on refresher courses just make sure I've still got everything I can already do. I did learn hardflips of the switch variety the other day though but I only got 2 in a row, and it only counts if you get 3 so meh. I really wanna learn cab back tails, was trying them for months last summer but kept landing in back lip. Sketchy ass trick, that.

    I just got a pogo fingerflip, no feet or hands touching at all

    I had just learned Pogos like two weeks ago, and this was my second sesh trying the fingerflip variation, so pumped, gonna try and get a few of my new casper/pogo/primo variations filmed soon

    Dude, pogo anythings are sweet as candy, and twice as dandy.

    I got a great sesh in today with a buddy I'm trying to rekindle the love for skating with. He pointed out I'd gotten so lazy I couldn't crack an ollie anymore, so I fiddled a bit and got back:

    Ollies, Fakie Ollies, Ollie 180's, Half-Cabs, Fakie Shuvs, Nollie FS and BS Shuvs, and the No-Comply Shuv. Also managed to hit this little pivot thing I liked to do off of curbs back in the day off a pretty decent ledge I ollied up onto. Basically, you head toward the edge of whatver you're on, and pivot 180 on the front truck on the corner. I dunno what it's called, but they're fun.

    Also learned what I called the "Popit." It's a firecracker, down a whopping two stair. Also got a decent ally-oop kickturn thing going in the bowl, but decided to skate some street today.

    Next sesh, getting my boardslide back.

    Way to rekindle Don. I know the feeling with the ollies, I may go whole seshes, days, even weeks without cracking an Ollie, but that's more about priorities than laziness, and a realization that I never had a great Ollie anyway and trying to relearn and improve on a tiny board with no pop and concave is just a waste of time. But I do crack little ollies every now and then

    10 years ago my "trick" was being able to ollie over pretty much any pyramid or bank that my friends found too big or sketchy. As soon as I found myself riding tranny, I never bothered to jump with my board again. As much as I don't think I'll ever get back to jumping off of stuff or popping at max speed, I think I may try to get back in the swing of some flatground/small bar/ledge skating. I kinda forgot how fun it is to land half a dozen tricks in a sesh rather than just getting one on a bigger wall.
