Got picked up by the Factory in the Icebox around 1 and we headed out to the Broomfield area. First spot was a weird metal beam/ledge thing that I didn’t hit as it was too tall for me. I was feeling pretty out of it and just did a bunch of kickflips in a row to try and get my feet moving. Then a game of SKATE with Rob that I don’t think we even finished. Next up was a weird small bank to rails spot. Brian and I tried some pole jams to fakie and didn’t get close then I tried to carve around the bank and launch out of the side. I didn’t make the carve and my board went under the rail, but then came out after a ledge. Impossible to understand in words I suppose, but I ended up getting a weird sideways hippy jump while holding onto the top bar. It’s ridiculously stupid, but super awesome at the same time. Jason and Rob killed it too with some stall tricks on the lower bar. Jason did a alley oop fakie 5-0, but the TF cameraman recorded over it. Suck! Next we skated this one section for awhile where Rob, Jason and I skated a little hip for a second. I got a no comply 360 over it and a couple kickflips. Nothing special, but it was fun. In the same lot was a metal angled thing that we ollied on and did tricks off of. Rob did a super sick bonelss off. Jason almost got a manual up to 5-0 down I think. I got a boneless 180 off and then slammed and lost a lot of drive to continue skating it. Next up everyone skated the bumper of the Icebox for awhile. My noseslides sucked, but we filmed the end of the video. Lastly I skated a tiny little gap that I could barely ollie, then filmed a bit and almost fell asleep in the van. Fun day.
