It could be a small surge but something where you noticed a sudden influx of people. Maybe a game you were playing that got quite popular after it was streamed or there was free weekend on Steam.

For example during the quarantine and around the time when the used console market got prohibitively expensive handheld emulators like the RG350 and much later the Miyoo Mini got quite popular. This was partially due to more people at home wanting to play their favorite classics but also them being promoted as "fake" GameBoys and PSPs on TikTok.

Yeah that's exactly we did, had a couple of big wipe outs on the crazy stairs we were doing 180s down and were just like, is this all there is? And even if you're doing grinds that's like, one trick (no matter how many different angles you can position your feet when you do it).

I save my knees for basketball these days, but I miss the skateboard.
