Operation: New Skates 🛼 (Patreon)
Content
Hi guys! 💖 As I mentioned in the previous post, I set a personal goal for my birthday (next Saturday) 💪 I want to land a specific jump I’ve been working on for a while 🛼🥺
I’ve been training a lot, going to my classes, taking private lessons, and doing my best to improve… but unfortunately, I discovered that my current skates are slightly too big, and the plate is pulling to the left 😩 That throws off my balance completely, especially on the right edge, which explains why this jump has been so frustrating. I simply can’t fully reach the edge I need 🫠
Since skates are expensive, I decided to start a little support campaign to help me replace them 🥺 On OF, I’m using the Goal feature, but since Patreon doesn’t have that option — and I know many of my patronites don’t really like OF — I decided to use Ko–Fi for this instead 💌 On Ko–Fi, I’m keeping the campaign updated with all donations, so we can actually see how far we are from the goal 🙏Here's the link for the campaign → https://ko-fi.com/danievedo/goal?g=50
And good news! We’ve already reached 50% of the goal!! 😭 I’m honestly so happy and grateful 🥹 Thank you so much to everyone who’s helped already 😭😘
And btw, if you're curious 👀💡 Why are skates so expensive? Because for professional skates, each part is sold separately! It’s a custom setup:• Boot (reinforced leather, must be very precise in size)• Plate (mounted separately, influences control and stability)• Bearings, wheels, toe stops (all chosen based on weight and discipline)And since I’ll be changing both the size and the plate type, I’ll need to remount everything from scratch 🥺
🤌 And what do you get if you help me with this goal? 💌Of course there’s a little gift involved! 😌 As a thank-you, I’ll be creating an exclusive pack using my new skates (and a surprise outfit ❤️). This pack will be sent directly and privately to everyone who helps with this goal, with any amount 🙏 And it won’t be posted anywhere, ever. It’s a one-time gift 💜
This is also my way of answering those sweet birthday messages I always get from you asking, “What would you like?” or “Where can I send a gift?” 🥺 I usually leave it completely open, but this year I thought I’d be a little more direct and share something truly special in return.
Please don’t feel obligated to donate 🙇♀️ This is really just an extra spoil 😊 I totally understand if you can’t or don’t feel like doing it 🥰
Anyways,Thank you for being here, always. I’m so, so grateful 💖
