skate journal: Lafayette and Denver with Trick Factory (oct 19)
Posted in Skate Journal on October 20th, 2008 by corpoAfter a super fun morning of playing soccer and baseball with Ollie I met up with Neil, Brian, Jason, Lazer, Fuzz and Rob around 2pm. First we hit up this wallride spot in Lafayette where I got stuck mostly filming. Kind of a crazy wallride that Rob, Fuzz and Neil had no problem with. Brian was trying a pretty rad line ending with an alley oop wallride, but he couln’t get it. We ended up leaving due to numerous cop drive byes.Next we went to a playground/city park in Denver that ended up being a ton of fun. There was a really sick ledge off a curb. Unfortunately you had to drop down two sets of stairs and get setup for it really quick. The only thing I landed was a noseslide. Jason landed about 30 noseslides. Fuzz killed it. Neil killed it. Lazer got a sick line. I sucked, but that is to be expected. I really wanted to kickflip 50 the ledge, but couldn’t get setup after the curb drop to kickflip. Plus I have new shoes. Billy Marks Fallens, they are good shoes, but take a minute to break in. After awhile we ended up at the foam covered volcano for a fun session and a couple kickflips from Brian and I. Kickflipping on foam is really weird. Fun day.
