skate journal: me the poser (Aug 21, 2009)
Met Riley and the Sioux Falls crew at my house then headed to Rock Creek to meet John. I had my hand wrapped up real tight again and basically just posed on the ramp while everyone else skated. I did a few back 50s, but that was basically it. Then John, Brandon and I dorked out trying flips into front noseslides and just only committing with the front foot. Brandon got a couple big flips and then tried the real deal an may have actually done it. John kills the one foot combos. I got a kickflip front nose on footer. Fun. I should try real ones once I can skate with the option of falling down. I went to film Riley do a ramp montage, but their friend “Dad” ended up rolling or even breaking his ankle. Shitty.We hit a few Boulder spots for a bit after this. No one really skated. Next we went to Parker skatepark. Jeff, Brian Bourquin, Bernie and Mikey met up with us. Talk about torture. That park rules and I couldn’t even really skate. I did some front 50s for awhile. Did one to front board and popped out. But my hand really started to hurt so I basically just sat and posed out for a few hours. I did manage to film Riley and Mikey huck themselves for awhile. That was fun. Look for a montage on the null site soon.
