Slightly tired from the night before we felt like something different and Nate had the idea to hit Nederland.  So we were off on a nice mountain drive to a little place called Aspen, mmm, California.   Dumb and Dumber quote.  Dumb.  Anyways the park is pretty fun.  It would be much funner without annoying high school kids that think they are way better than they are.  Seriously two dudes spent the whole time we were there trying treflips up a stepup that they couldn’t even ollie cleanly.  But we got our skate on and it was fun.  Nate dropped into the shallow of the pool which was gnar.  Although Lazer could probably roll into it first try.  We all cruised around getting the feel for what we wanted to try for quite some time.  I settled on trying a run for awhile and got a couple.  Front 50 the ledge, back rock the backside of the cradle, noseslide the ledge.  Front 50 the ledge, front rock the cradle, crooks the ledge.  Pretty hyped on that one.  Chief was hitting his patented bigspin fakie on the pyramid, Nate was pole jaming combos, kids were trying treflip flyouts, it was pretty fun.  At the end I was trying back rocks on the low bar of the handrail next to a q-pipe.  Some kid came and showed me how to do it and made sure to beam me for good measure.  It was pretty funny.  Decent session.  Those kids pretty much suck though.Late night the Fremont dudes showed up.  Matt, Dan, Eric and Joe.  Brian and Lazer were here and we skated Rampy.  Lazer and Brian killed it.  Lazer even took a request – the invert.  So rad.  Everyone skated for about an hour and the sweat was flowing.  After that we watched the rough cuts of Off The Couch and stayed up late.
