My entry for STEEMSKATE STEEMIT SKATEBOARDING CONTEST WEEK 3 - FREE SKATE!
Hey Steemians,
So after an awesome holiday where I met the legend that is @web-gnar we chatted about steemskate. I realised that I am doing ok with rep and the amount I get on my other non skate related posts. It is for that reason that I have decided to give away the SBD made from this post to the winner.
Before I went on holiday I did a few power downs and sent some steem out to trade it helped me enjoy my holiday but now to remove the nagging guilt I want to give back.
So here is my entry . Freeskate to me meant skating wherever you can and creatively trying to work out the the weirdest spots. So part 1 of my journey is literally around the corner from me . When I saw the contest announced I thought this would be a sweet crappy but make it skateable spot.
I then made my way to the skatepark however while waiting at the car park I noticed to skate able objects so filmed that.
Finally I have a line in the bowl at the skatepark . The last trick is an attempt at a backside tailslide on mini . It is part of my trick list and one I feel I am getting really close too.
I hope you enjoy the vid and for the last time all SBD from this post goes to the winner.
this is so sick. hahaa that was great - the manuver you did on the crusty polejam i will be sure to evaluate each and every trick you do in the steemskate week 3 results!
very honorable for you to donate the proceeds to the winner, but before i say too much...
Thanks dude I think I am second highest in terms of voting power so made sense to donate get every body powered up
yeah! i will do the same!!!
This is so awesome! I'm just about to upload my little heelflip attempts! I'm gonna write a trick list like you. Is that to help you focus?
The trick list is to kind of keep an eye on what I wnat to make and re-learn. I am an old has been skater so some of the tricks are just things I want to get back while others are ones I just need a little push to land , as I know I can land them. Landing a trick in skateboarding is all about getting those physics bits down speed ,amount of power , angle and then the courage to land it . The list helps to just do it !!! Will do a post on my list and hopefully we can all upload ours and motivate each other to land stuff . Like a real skate sesh
Hey I really love that idea! I just put up my heelflip vid, I was going to upload it for steemskate but I wanna try something at girls night this Thursday :) Gonna try ollie-ing over different things, see if I can get the other girls involved!
Like ollie a bunch of things in a row or just one thing . You should try get hooked up on the PAL Dischord so we can chat , also there are a lot of cool people on there who I chatted to and helped me get to my current status . I am also on IG as stixchampion
I'm thinking like a broom handle, then the bristly bit, then there's this little platform thing that's about 3 or 4 inches I wanna try to ollie on to, then who knows what next :)
Ok bear with me on dischord, I'll try to set it up.
I registered, can you invite me?
Did you register for the PAL one or the Steemskate one either is good for now
Damn dude,you are having fun that's what this contest is all about.Really close to tha bs tail.I'm sure next time you will lock it.Respect.
SKATEFORLIFE
I consider that called out will get one soon
YesssSSSS!!!! You hit that fallen post sort of spot thing! Nice video mate!
I really enjoy the vlog day in the life style.
Sorry I couldn't make it to Barking for the sesh, I love that park!
Shabba !!! reckon for one of the contest we should do a collective entry
Looks like a fun day! I think I tried to skateboard once in my life...I don't think it ended well...
Thanks Uni you rule , you skate with emotions
Awesome stuff man! I'm not a skateboarder myself, rather I longboard, but with so few doing any skating on Steemit I feel we need to work together.
I was thinking we should maybe even try to create a bot that upvotes all things skate related. Oh and you just commented on Discord!
Yea cool man all sounds good
