Skateboard 2

I've been skating indoors at LS-ten skatepark recently, as the poor weather over the last few weeks has made outdoor skating... not fun. I've mostly abandoned my shorter board in favour of the Lush Throttle. At 34" length it's not too much longer than a typical 'popsicle' board, but I find it much more comfortable. I don't mind the lack of double kicktail, and I prefer the longer wheelbase.

I've been working on the basics of skating ramps and bowls - drop-ins, roll-ins, kick turns, rock-to-fakie, and tail stall; and I'm still quite rough as you can see in the following video. I hope to continue skating regularly and improving.

(on a technical note, I've signed up for a peertube instance and I'm posting my skate videos there. I have the content backed up locally as well, but I figured I might avoid hosting videos from my home server for now)
