Pumping & Ledge Work
After about two months of holiday and pre-uni stress, I hit the skatepark again on Friday. My main goal this time, was to teach myself how to pump on a half pipe - a basic skill that I'd recently realised I was lacking.
Below is a video of one of my attempts. I still have a lot to practice, but I definitely feel like I'm making progress. Getting better at pumping also feels like it will help me develop my sliding as well (which I've been struggling to gain consistency on).
Despite hitting the park with the aim of improving my pumping, I couldn't resist practicing a little ledge work as well. Particularly, jumping between a ramp and a ledge, although the ramp isn't really visible in the video below.
