Still Shredding, After All These Years, Still Shreddin...

My quasi-insane list of what I've done on a skateboard in the past and what I hope to be able to do once again.

The Comeback List Of Tricks

For about a month, I’ve been skateboarding once a week for between 15 minutes and an hour. It’s my comeback. I think this happens to all former skate rats right around this age.

I’m pleased and impressed with what I can still do. In order to keep myself inspired, I’m going to assemble a list of what I was once able to do and I what I can still do today, as well as manuevers I might be able to pull if I apply myself.

I feel like I’m forgetting tricks, if I remember, I’ll update this list.

Both Feet On, Over Bolts, Totally Solid, Then and Now:

• Ollie, switch, regs
• Kickflip
• Pop Shove It-Frontside, Backside, both switch and regular
• Half cabs-every which way
• 180s-frontside, backside, switch and regular
• Crooked grind to fakie
• Noseslide- backside
• Big Spin - fakie
• 50-50 - on a smallish ledge
• Front tail - small ledge
• I’m thinking I could do front and back boardslides, but I don’t have a flat bar to test this theory

If I Apply Myself, Probably, Though Watch For Toe Drag

• Backside Flip
• Half cab flip backside
• Frontside Noseslide
• Switch Heelflip
• Big spin, regular and nollie
• Nollie Tailside
• Switch noseslide both back and front
• Lipslide
• Full cab, both nollie and regular

I Did Em Once, I could Probably Do Em Again:

• Nollie backside heelflip
• Switch heelflip
• Switch crooked grind
• Frontside crooked grind
• Nollie heelflip
• Front board shove it

I Was Never Particularly Good At These, So I’m Not Holding My Breath:

• 360 Flip
• Frontside crooked grind
• Fakie 360 flip
• Nollie backside kick and heel flip
• Fakie frontside kickflip
• Nollie and switch flip

Anyone want to get something to eat and drink tonight?

The Beagle Bump

My friend is going to start having bi-monthly group art shows at her house in West Philly. Every show is going to have a theme. The first theme is hibernation. It is February 27th. I don't really know what it's gonna be like but I plan on checking it out. There is going to be a party afterward. If anyone wants to get in on the next show let me know. I don't know the theme yet. In the words of Freshman, "There's gonna be a lot of hot girls there!"
