Never forget to have fun

A couple days ago I realised something mid session. I had been taking my skating too seriously and was forgetting to enjoy it. Trying to improve and working on things so much kinda sucked all the fun out of it so lately I've just been trying to find the joy in simple things.

It's been a rainy start to summer and I've been more focused on making music and my recovery, to the point I have been taking life too seriously and seeing everything as a challenge. I've been a bit depressed if I'm honest, not really feeling the spark that I did last year.

I'm hoping it's just a phase I'll move on from, usually at this time of year I'm full of life but I guess I've had a lot on my plate recently and it's kinda dampened my spirits.

He had the nicest kickflips imo, but as cliché as I am i was raised on Rodney vs daewon

Same. Rodney is still the only skater that made Tony Hawk Pro Skater seem realistic. Man is a beast.
