Seems like Monday’s are becoming my solo skate night over at Table Mesa shopping center. I love skating by myself sometimes. Unfortunately it became all to clear right away that skateboarding was going to be very difficult when I bailed ollieing up a curb. Ugh. I pretty much skated like crap, but tried lines at a couple spots until I got them. Over by Play It Again Sports I did a front shove on flat, nollie back tail on the curb (the worst one that’s ever been done), ollied over a weird parking block, ollied up a curb, ollied a little flat gap, nollied up a little curb, kickflip on flat, front tail the curb I started on. I had to sit down after that one and rest awhile. Every trick was done horribly, but it was fun linking them together. Next I went over the some painted curbs that were freshly painted and did my best to remove the fresh paint with my trucks. I put a few tries in to manual the pad in front of it then slappy grind the curb. This was hard because the ground between the manual pad was rough as hell and I wanted to go fast enough that I didn’t push in between. Before long I did probably the fastest manual I’ve ever done followed by a slappy 50 then turned around and kickflipped up the curb. Rad. Sat down for awhile again. Then I hit King Soopers via the fun downhill sidewalk gap thing. I want to try and link a line there next time: some flipper into the sidewalk, ollie the gap, make the turn onto the sidewalk, kickflip off the curb, then front lipslide a parking block. Next time maybe? Anyways, before I left I started to really lose it from being tired and spent a bunch of energy trying to quick up to ollie onto the bench in front of Tandoori Grill. I got it a couple times, but it was weak. I blame the lack of light though. Ha. All in all I skated bad, but I skated hard and sometimes that’s fun enough.
