Can you lose the "skill"?

[Javi]

Ok.. i have like you know my "spot" to practice (some place in the park next to my house :biggrin:), and i have been practicing there for about 1 year or something... but i have realised lately that i can´t do the same tricks or combos there and i feel so tired.. and when i meet some friends in some other places or parks to practice i can do almost everything that i want to.. or even when i go to another place in the park i can do some great combos and i feel great

so.. have you felt the same thing? any opinions or something?  :biggrin:

its all in the mind, mate
if you have skills you will never "lose" them, you may become rusty for lack of practice, but if someone has skills they will always have them

I usually practice at the same place aswell and sometimes at other places I can do better but I don't think the places themselves have anything to do with it
Maybe it's just because you don't remember all the good stuff you've done at the regular place since you're there so often

i have the same thing, at some places things work more easily than at other places i think, but it could be a thing of my mind ;)

when i have time, and the weather is good i go to diffirent places, i think that one place become boring and it mess up with your concretation, but if u choose some new place, u are like 'newcomer' and want to show your best skills in that place...........well my opinion

you can also just be 'out of shape' or have too high expectations. when you do an awesome combo you cant expect that you will be able to do it everytime you try

When i fs indoor i can do better. Sometimes i can barely do tatw outside.. So it happens sometimes i lose the skill  :nopity:

i don't really think that you lose the skill, it is in your head, or u just have bad day  :dontknow:

Wow, I was thinking about this recently, because I just started freestyling again, and I tried to do certain moves and now I can barely do them..

thats not true, one of the principles of training, is known as reversability. This is when, if you take a break or stop doing a certain thing, you reverability effect will take place where you lose skill youve been practising. This can occur in little then 3 or so days.
