"I skate for those who can't" Jake Phelps
This year has been a heavy one for the skate scene . In times like these it is important to remember to go skate whenever you can . Skate by yourself to clear your head or skate with your mates and enjoy the session. The main thing is go skate for those who can't. For some fellow skaters are injured or have passed so pop an ollie or do a slash grind and dont stress out on the tre flip.
Music by an old band of mine called "wake up dead" song is called " Northern Girls"

Hello from lock down London, this is some footage from one of my first skates in the early morning avoiding the public due to the corona virus.
In this video I work on getting my 50-50's better on transition. It is important during this time that you dont push yourself too hard and wind up burdening the medical services . So I just went for what I knew I could get while facing some fear.
Hope you enjoy

Giving that I love doing Hurricane Grinds I thought I would make a tutorial on how to do them.
1. Find a small curb to practise the motion
2. For backside scoop back foot into pocket (concave between board and tail)point toes into the curb. For frontside ollie/scoop 180 and sit back into your heels
3. Keep top half of body centred and unwrap legs
4. Commit to unwrapping the full 180
5. Ride away ...fist bump
Film your struggle and use this song

This video is a continuation from my first video on mental health.
"Men's mental health, how I handled my dark period through skateboarding and music" .
In this video I am talking about the mental health benefits of travelling . It all started when I decided to get out of the four bleak walls of my flat and go to the skate park. From there I built up the confidence to go to other skate parks and meet more people. By sharing my videos on YouTube, Instagram and the Steemit blogging site I decided I wanted to travel and meet the people I had interacted with in different countries.
With these goals in hand the dark days didn't last for long as I had something to look forward to . In addition to this I can also take the time to look back and smile about the places and experiences I have had.
The music is a song I wrote about 10 years ago when I was in a low period and envisioned myself as a lonely loser drunkenly walking the quiet streets on a loop. I found it quite refreshing to revisit my bleak prediction of my future and compare it with what I actually achieved.
Link to the song can be found here
