Progression not Perfection
Progression not Perfection
Every year I keep track of all the new skateparks I hit, fun times with friends and new tricks I learn. I take the mini-ramp tricks that I learn on my ramp and try to do them all in a single session. Pivot Fakies are hard and required a second session.
Here it is in all it's sloppiness.
