Hey guys 👋🏾. I wanted to ask what’s your reason for why you are skating? What keeps you coming back? What skate goals do you have for yourself? I’ll start. I remember I use to just go to the skate rink and watch the skaters wishing I could do that. They looked so majestic, so skilled, so fun, so kool. That’s my why. I wanted to be like them on skates. I bought myself some skates and would try here and there. I took a couple of skate classes to learn technique (I still go). I saw with consistency I was improving. I felt good in my body. I felt good in my soul. Clubs and lounges Never really did it for me. But I enjoyed skating to the music and the skate community that I’m getting to be apart of helps me keep coming back. I made my self a promise that I would keep learning and even dedicated days of the week to skate no matter the thoughts or fears that popped into my head. The promise I made to myself is what keeps me going. The peace of mind and seeing my progress keeps me coming back. As I continue to learn more about skating I realized there are skate communities all over the US and internationally. One of my goals is to travel to more US cities and now I want travel and skate in those cities. Another one of my goals is to build community. 🛼

Currently, I'm working on Manual variations and Pivots. Manuals - I can perform a Manual and Toe Manuals. Now I am trying to switch with Toe Manuals. This has been pretty difficult for me to get. I think my issue is comfortably and consistently shifting my weight. Pivot - This has been a process. Biggest issue switching from back to front. Especially when turning right. Any tips? What are you working on? What has been hard for you?
