    Haha Noticed I blew out one of my wheels guess it happened to wear down while I was doing powerslides
    so I need some tougher ones soon..
    Really excited for skating today though
    should be clear tomorrow as well
    Got fucking bonelesses haha I got a few normal ones but
    it's easier to bring it a little more vertical toward the chest and tweak it out for me
    Found a mellow bank spot with a manhole that dips down so I can do salflips after jumping down and back up kind've like a trampoline.. so much fun..
    got one underbounce trick over it too.. planted one foot in the dip.
    as well as quad fingerslap to tail stall on a low stair.

    Got a good couple of hours in today. The last 5 sessions have been all about dialing in a new setup and get all my old tricks back. The glory list include:

    5-0 stall into smith stall on the "big quarterpipe"
    Bluntstall nosegrab to 5-0 stall
    Some wacky ass 5-0 stall surran wrap thing. (Video to follow soonish.)

    And I ALMOST landed a fakie 5-0 pivot to regular. Something I never tried before today, and one of the other regulars at my park coaxed me into.

    Oh, and Pawn, I know that "best feeling ever" sensation. The blunt is a trick 5 years in the making. Ugly as shit, but I still rolled away.

    Nice Don.
    Going to go out this morning catch a few tricks before it rains
    Few I'm thinking of
    Boneless Impossible
    Boneless while holding the nose of the board probably called something else
    Finger flip caveman manual
    540 shuv caveman manual
    caveman ride down fence support
    caveman fence plant
    hippie jump force board up fence and jump on it when it comes back down
    also been toying with spinning the board by it's wheel with my hand.. may lead into a caveman variation
    doubt I'll get them all today but who knows

    Sounds sick Don, Get some footy would love to see it.

    Antwan, you gotta pay someone to just film you, getter done, a full video part would be great
    Your nosegrab boneless thing, do you pull it up by the nose or pop it up to your hand? I pop it up so its more like a no comply nosegrab kinda thing.

    I got a boneless 50-50 on a box today, actually did a few grinds across the whole thing, its been a while haha, best was probably a fs feeble

    Yeah I really wish I was in that position
    Rarely can I get out of the apartment complex to skate elsewhere
    don't really know anyone around here
    I just pull it up man.. I don't quite have no complies I just didn't know what to call the one foot tricks I've been doing
    I got one today over the tennis net pretty cool one surprised to bang it first try..
    took a while to get it a second time though
    one foot pop a half rotation catch it upside down quad fingerflip catch it in the air above the net throw it under me as I jump over it
    I also got one foot pop half rotation catch quad fingerflip catch quad fingerflip out on flat.. pretty consistent.. so much board control.. cant wait to tie them into the boneless

    So I took your advice got a bigger board.. not an oldschool but a damn big modern one haha
    shit I was skating a small one before but the bigger one feels more natural
    got bonelesses almost everytime
    got manual spins back.. didn't keep track of rotations but it was damn long Loose trucks are great
    also made a longboard style variation today.. haven't seen anyone do it
    basically it's a boneless but don't pop the tail or jump just plant your front foot grab the side of the board
    push forward with the back foot slide sideways with one foot and a grab pivot back when the board pushes back
    got one that was so tweaked out it looked like a blunt on flat.. also did one going into the fence so I could kick it roll fakie right into a 180 pivot
    This got me so excited I'm going to do what possible to get it filmed.
