New trick today: Fakie FS Smith Stall.
I crashed more timed than I landed it so I have to figure out how to switch the weight from toe to heel in this trick. It feels like this trick is harder than the FS Axle Stall due to in that trick you can shift the weight in a more controlled way. Just continue too practice and hopefully I will not be too scared of the trick meanwhile.
I also landed a couple of better Fakie Pop Rock today where I moved my front foot in air and could ride away in a more controlled way. Fine day today with better weather again after almost a week of rain.

HAHA, maybe a FS Air one day but that will be the closest to a McTwist
I have been skating 5 days in a row now so that have been great weather and a lot of fun.
New trick today:
Fakie BS Axle Stall.

I sure hope you don't have a bad fall. At least use gloves to protect your hands..

I always run with full protection, so I have knee pads, crash pants, back protection, elbow pads, wrist guards and helmet
I have had a couple bad falls with two different cracked ribs and one when I hurt my back in the beginning (got the back protection after that). Besides that I only have had thigh bruising or landed on my pads.

Oh ouch! Not the same at 15 than at 30+ (don’t know how old you are) but yeah… stay safe!
That potential for injury now is part of the reason I look back fondly at my carefree (no protection-wearing
) skateboarding years in the 80s/90s but haven’t done any vert/quarter ramp, etc… now. Though you’re inspiring me to want to try, but full protection like you describe is a must!
The old skate motto lives on though… sk8 or die!

Well we’re the same age then, so I got no excuse to not get back into it I suppose
Also nice run of new tricks!
