skate journal: the best ledge ever (sept 20)
After the Omaha Botanical Gardens with Liz and her parents and some minigolf with Liz’s Dad I headed to Fremont to meet up with Joe, Dan and Matt, aka, the raddest dudes ever. Ok, well maybe not ‘ever’, but their up there for sure. We all met at the ledge of fall ledges, Linden. 20 feet long and about 10″ tall it’s a beauty. Warming up was fun, I came remotely close to front smiths, but Dan and Matt were killing it and showing their home town spot who owns it. Dan and Matt ended up doing the raddest Broflip of all time. You’ll have to wait for 411 to come back to see it. Then Matt strapped on his camera feet and attempted to film me doing a line. I don’t think he knew what he was in for. The goal for me was to do a nollie 360 flip then a front 50 back 180 out. I think it took at least 50 tries to land a nollie 360 flip and when I did it was a bad one. I’m calling ‘over 35’ though and Matt is the man for spending 18 hours filming me. Then we filmed a skit for my Off The Couch part that will surely make one or two people laugh. Not only is the Fremont crew fun as hell to skate with, but they can even act better than Heather Graham. Thanks again Matt, you rule for filming so much.
