nice work!

i got:
360s over absolutely everything except spines (need help on those)
450s bank to bank (crazy fun)
and a few lip trick combos too.

started learning 180 whips, cannonballs, and superman seatgrabs.

heading to melboune in about 10 weeks to ride rampfest, which has me soooo pumped. i should learn a shitload out of that, just like cairns haha.

over tooth grinds at mach 1. sooo scary sometimes. also got tuck no hander to tap, icepick to smith
tried: tuck airs, 180 whips, and still can't get bar spins.
and i snapped an axle for the first time. bring back 14mm!

oh and i got another bike, the frame, bars and pegs are all my design on this one, i had the pegs CNCed ages ago and the frame and bars i had built by solid bikes, i just used their stock headtube and bb obviously, but the frame is soooo sweet. so now have like 5 bikes in total, 2 freestyle, 1 race/cruiser, and 2 mid-schoolers.

I want to lean air tricks, but I'm shit.

So I'll just sit around and look cool.

270 tap to smith/ double peg/ feeble
270 tap to double peg to fakie
360 tap to sprocket

tuck no hander to turndown (again)
abubaca tire grab (again)
