TF day.  Started off skating in front of my house as usual.  Felt better then I would have thought, but not very good.  I filmed Brian and Fuzz at a couple spots before skating a new crazy bump spot.  It was fun, but not that fun.  I was happy trying boardslides down a little hubba.  Our crew was pretty big.  Brian and John were battling late flips.  Carleigh was battling heelflips.  Jason back 180s.  Fuzz was doing monster airs.  Neil was cussing.  John was slamming.  Rob was styling.Next we went to my nemesis.  The car wash in Lville.  Ugh.  We put the sign in a new way and it was better.  But that didn’t stop me from not landing it.  I think it’s a mental block at this point.  Jason, Lazer and Fuzz were killing it.  The spot is weird.  I tried kick back tails forever and definitely got into some that I should have landed.  Even rode out of one but bailed before the curb.  I think it’s a mental block at this point.  I couldn’t sleep last night thinking about how I should just land it.  Ugh.  At the end I totally freaked out, focused my board and threw it around for a long time.  Gotta say that was pretty fun.  Felt better then just leaving empty handed.  The worst part is I have to go back.  UGH UGH UGH.  It’s partly awesome because this trick is really good for me, it’s party horrible because I don’t like going to a place and trying one trick over and over.  Please, wish me luck, I need it.This is me when I snapped.  After the board landed I think Brian said something about how it showed I was related to the strongest man in the world.  Can’t wait til I try it again.Another one I bailed that I shouldn’t have.  Thanks for the photos Rob.  I still can’t believe that shirt didn’t give me enough power to land it.  I mean it is the best shirt of all time and all.  You would think it could do kick back tails by itself.

Had the day off work and started it off by skating the little indoor weird spot at the Reunion sale.  They have a steep little quarterpipe, wallride, a couple ledges and a manny pad made of a stack of osb sheets.  John wanted to get a line, but we skated for awhile first.  It took me awhile to get a wallride, but I eventually did.  Maybe if I wasn’t so stupid and refused to take a 5 minute break and relieve my bladder.  Oh well.  I also got a run with a nose manny, kickturn then kickflip manny.  I filmed Nate and John for a bit then Nate and I headed to 1st & Sheridan in Denver.  I felt like crap when we got there and couldn’t do anything.  Freaked out a bit and sat for awhile.  I really hate skating under the pressure of having to film tricks.  Can’t wait for Off The Couch to be done.  After awhile though I was skating ok for me and Nate rules and was willing to film.  I got a front 50 kickflip out in about 5 tries.  Awesome!  That was the number one trick on my list.  Then I attempted a run with boneless 360 followed by 50 front board.  Never got it.  Ugh.  Killed myself trying too.  My left leg is sooo sore from jumping off it on the boneless over and over.  Later on I tried no comply 360s to start it and landed more then ever, but still couldn’t do the 50 front board.  Lame.  I’m not good at skateboarding.  After we met up with Bernie and John and went to this weird hip/downhill manny pad spot.  I was dead tired, but managed to manny and nose manny down it before filming Bernie almost get a really sick trick.  Doh.
