vol 11

I haven't been able to skate enough
because I felt the needs of spending
more times on stuffs related to music
things such as playing guitar or others

It is really a shame ..
because I really love skating ..
it is good stuffs ..

well I will for sure find
myself some to be on the board

FUCKING HELL I WANT TO SKATE

vol 9

yesterday was the first time
i fucking landed the ollie
while i was moving !!!

HELL YA !! EYYEYEY ^___^

but i lost it again
today when i went skating

shit

its so hard

it makes me wanna cry

vol 8

haven't seriously skated for ages ,
because of the shcool stuffs
but i do ocassionally ride it to school
so i've got better at riding and turning

just went out skating for a bit
scross the road at the school
haven't really lost that much

man ! my ollie is better
mostly land without falling
but not perfectly though
it usually turns sideway

gotta fix that and
the front foot as well

was trying to ollie while riding
but failed again, fell twice
not so badly , but damn .

still enjoy skating
i gotta keep at it


oh by the way , just went shopping mall
and i feel so terrified going there ,
its a weird place

vol 7

haven't updated this for a bit
coz i recently haven't got much
time to skate becoz of the shcool works
fuck it , it sucks

but i went skating today
met some friends i met last time
met some new friends
was sick as , love it

oh and i learned some new tricks though
the 180 turn to a oppsite stance
the run and push , and how to skate off
the curbs ...fucking basic xd haha

and man my ollie is getting better
i sometimes could really land some
good ollies , like keep my two foots
on the board off the ground and land :) !

so.........oh i think i have to write down
some notes so i wouldn't forget

um for ollies , there are some importants
things i think people should keep in mind :

1. jump , i meant jump up !

2. put your weight slightly toward the nose
or you might fall back

3. 2 foots should be on the board the during
the whole ollie

4. relax

5. the pop is important, would be good
to hear the tail knock the ground noise
but not too hard

ok that's all for now

and i try to slide down the stairs today ..
was fun ! i got 2 staris left every time
and just lose my balace ..........
but i end up getting a big scratch on
my knee, it bleeds and looks gross ..

xd

vol 6

today is Saturyday
me and my friends rock up at the park
for skating from 9 am until 4 pm ...
um I do think we did a bit too much xd
that's really a bit over the top xd

and the point was that i still
could not do an proper ollie ...
But it's getting there xD yah !

umm and I did something silly
after leaving my sister's house
at the train station , I skated
downward along a slope which linked
to the platfom xD

at the start it was ok
but toward the end my speed start
building up really quickly so it went
really fast , and my board began wabbling
pretty hard , i got scared as soon as i slided
down onto the platform , i sort of tried
to jump off the board .....and i went fly man xD

yeh so you know whatever you got scared
of doing anything on a skate-board, you're
very likely to fall off, because skate-boarding
is so much about strong commitment ...

yeh , i got some scratches on kness and elbows ..
the worst of all was my left thigh , it hit the ground
pretty hard i got , and it hurts a bit when i walk now

haha , shit man xDD

by the way , my mom came today
so good to see her , haven't seen her
for almost a year ( 11 months )

and check this dude out
he's considered as the Jesus of Skate-boarding

vol 5

ollie is so hard
I'm stuck in here
i feel like i've done
more than 600 attempts ..

but it is a must-learn skill !!
it so essential as well as crucial
trick to master !!!!!

so go motherf**ker !!!
keep skating !!!!!!!!
and I'm gonna land an fucking
ollie with my 2 foot flawlessly !!!
fuck yeh !!! XD

vol 4

i went to park with my mates last weekend
I did a bit self-practice as well after it
when I came back ... and by the end it seems
like i was able to do the ollies ( stationary )

but it wasn't a proper one ...
i could jump and bring the board
off the ground and landed it with front wheel
that part was all good and tide ..

but the problem was my back leg
was actually kicking a bit backward
as i snap the board to launch the ollie

i found this as i look myself doing it
in front of a window ..and it just doesn't
look right at all .........................

so i still couldn't do the a proper ollie
i think i will get with Natham and Roger
this weekend to see what we can do

see the second guy with a helmet
doing the ollie , that's perfectly
what i want to do !! i think he's tony hawk



man i think it'd feel so good
jumping over or onto stuffs with ollies !!
can't wait to be able to do it ...

vol 3

I now bring the board with me pretty much
every where i go , man street skating is
so much hard than the vert ...so hurt much more

though today i found that with the road surface
that has more friction , you gotta lean back a bit
, thus it means don't throw your weight forward
like we usually do when pushing off, coz
the board isn't moving as much as it does
on the smooth surface !!
so i try that
it works better
i fell less than usual

so i went to the primary at night like
all the other days, the front gate wasn't locked ..
yesterday it wasn't locked either , i thought it was
a bit creepy ..feels like somethings going on ..-_- "
umm never mind , so i went in and started trying to
throw some olies ,,


ollie

i found that the feet you kick the board with
really has to "snap " the board , not push nor
step , but snap ! so the board wouldn't turn or
go somewhere it shouldn't ,,, so just little weight
and snap it !

and with the front fee which is supposed to slide the
board up to the nose ,, depends on you're moving forward
or doing the olie stationary , it either slides upward
or forward ,,, the clip i watched last time says as the same
time you really have to throw your body out and lean forward
as well as you're moving forward, or your both two foots aren't
gonna land on the board ...........

that's what i think
see what these guys say !!






fuck something shit today was
i ollie and but landed improperly ..
so the board slided off , i fell on the butt
and scratched my right elbow ...blood came out xd
and my butt was so hurt ..........

vol 2

so i am now able to control the board and have
it swing across side to side much better now
I haven't mastered it yet , but it's much better now
and my tic tac is now slowly moving forward !
at least not backward !

olie is still as hard as fuck
I was doing it at the primary after
playing the net-ball game, we lost again
by the way , fuck ! i hate losing ...!!!

ok , i was trying to do a stationary olie
then as i kicked the board then somehow
the baord splined around then the wooden
edge the board sort of directly hit my knee ..

i was groaning like " ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" !!!

coz it is so fucking hurt , REALLY !
I should really get a pad before i could
do this trick properly or I'd break my bones
in less than 2 weeks ..............

vol 1

i wanna have a diary for my process of learning to skate...
I've been trying to do it everyday and carry the board with me
every where i go , so i could get a hand of it hopefully much faster
and much efficiently ...

so last night and the night before
except for the normal skating around for traveling
i sneaked into the primary just across my lovely house xD
to skate ! unfortunately i still couldn't do the tic tac
properly ... thought i started trying out some olies from
the night before, it seems like i'm more likely to throw
that trick earlier than tic tac ...xD fuck

i looked up youtube for tips for tricks the other day
after the class, and found some really sick stuffs that
might help , though it's always easier to read rather than
doing it ... but i came across this guy who sadly died last year
in a tragedy of a car accident ..Shane Cross , an Australian
famous skater , I watched some of his clips on youtube



what a great lost in skate-boarding talents ...

anyway , i can ride much better now ,
just need to gain more control , and i wanna
start practicing using goofy stance to ride ( i'm regular )
or with my regular stance and use the other foot to push off
im now using the back feet to propel forward
