In Stockholm managed to film some clips in little bredang Park. Was pretty gutted camera turned off when I did a sweet little frontside half cab nose. That was 1st or 2nd of Sept. Day I went to Helsingfors, the morning was was really sunny and I got my first skate at bredang Park, where I had a new board and new shoes which was a lot of fun. 

Today, I went to transport after work, skated for about 1hr ish. Did a few warm up ollie nollie fakie switch 180s I think. Did noseslide first go. Never got a fs nose slide but almost got a sweet 1. Some of the trys I was planning to go to fakie but it kinda slide going forward pretty cool. Done 3 50s got a switch nose slide first try. Tried a couple of nose grinds and front crooks. Got a crook. Got a tail to fakie first try, which Andy white seemed to appreciate and that got me hyped. Got a shitty half cab flip first try. A shitty fs half cap flip 3 3rd try. A few ok fs half cab heel flips. Fee shitty switch flips. An OK heel flip.  A cool nollie back tail to forward first try, that was cool because of the slide pop and feel. Tried to nollie inward heel to no avail and got a shitty switch fs flip. Tried a switch try as a go for broke but that didn't happen. Tried a couple nollie heels and switch heels. Got a couple of shitty fakie flips. Was a fun skate, and I need to try more shit. I also tried a switch crook but that trick frustrates me cause it feels so awkward to me. Anyway, next time it's on.

Also I'm really lazy as I have not written in almost a year =/ skating has been pretty sporadic this year unfortunately and the weather has been awful

Back to Loading Bay after Lanzarote. Was quite fun. Most 180s are fine however struggled going up manual for fakie f/s 180 and switch back 180. So did them on flat. Landed a good switch crook. Did good nollie back tail followed by nollie tail first t and then a half cab nose, then missed fakie front nose =[ back side kick flip first try and landed fakie front heel second try. Did nose manny switch manny and reg manny on long manual. Got half way on switch nose manny. Enjoying dropping in on quarters. Nose slide and front nose slide ok. One good nollie nose slide. Tried fs nollie nose once but failed and never tried again. Got a nice fakie 5 0 grind but never landed it. Tried some switch heel switch back tails for fun. Also tried nollie nose manny which felt nice and possible for the long manny. Did some good back 5050 ollie pop outs. Got a scare on nollie back 50 attempt and back t attempt. Skating a lot in a week really improves board control! Fs 180 nose grind first t on kerb felt gr...

Skated transport after work, after getting an early finish at 4:30pm. Bit colder today at the start but weather was dry and sun was out a bit. Andy was there when I got there. Warmed up with 180s then all the shuvs x3. No flips today. Then tried my wee ledge warm up mix of 50 50, then manny, then nose slide, then crook and finish with front nose. Never did the whole drill but go most of the main bits. Still can't lock my nose mannies for some reason.  After messing with a few things I wanted to try something different. Been thinking of doing fakie tail, fakie back tail, nollie nose and nollie fs ns. Nollie fs ns came quite quick and did it relatively decent. Started with fakie tails next but could not good a decent one even after a good surprising start, ended up with one shiter. Moved to nollie ns which use to be a real strong trick long ago, however managed to sketch one out. Finally was fakie back tail, got two shit ones with the second being okish. Don't think I have landed...
