Initially I was a little bummed on everyone wanting to skate Rampy on a nice night.  It was over 40.  First time in awhile.   I wanted to go outside and enjoy the streets after being couped up indoors all day.   Luckily I enjoy the company of my friends so I got over it pretty quick.  Especially after Brian showed up early and amused the family.  Brian rules.  And I’m not just saying that because you read this Brian.  Well, maybe just a little.  “HAAA”!  But seriously, a good crew showed up.   The first few were Brian, Lazer, Squeeks, Jason, Jake.  And then more people and then more and more.  Jabo, Jari, Dan, Carleigh, Rick.  11 people in all to skate an 8 foot wide ramp with standing room on only one deck.  Wow.  I don’t really remember how the session started.  I know it was really fun and then it got crowded and then Squeeks hurt his knee so I was helping him ice it for awhile.  Then when I got back out to Rampy Brian said everyone was skating really good.  Shortly after that Jason, Squeeks, Jari, Jabo and Dan took off.  Here’s some of what I remember from everyone.Jason – Still makes Rampy look 20 feet wide by grinding edge to edge.  He was killing it.Lazer – Every trick he’s done on Rampy and more.  The 5-0 to front board to fakie was one I hadn’t seen before.  His ollies are getting more and more above the coping.Squeeks – Watched the clip of Josh skating Rampy and thought it was super easy to skate.  After a bit he was doing some tech tricks though.  Unfortunately he hyper extended (or something) his knee trying a back smith to back nosegrind and left early.Jake – Skates Rampy hard everytime.  Was rattling off tricks.  Can’t wait for the session he gets the stale pick every try.Jabo – Didn’t see him much since I was inside but I saw a proper front smith, a front 50 and a blunt fakie.  Cool.Dan – Tried some backside blunts.Brian – Maybe skated Rampy the best I’ve seen him.  Had some trouble rock creek’n blunts to fakie but landed some tricks I’ve never seen him do before.  Blunt back shove rock fakie.  Ton’s of tricks and fakie smith grinds for days.Rick – Fully padded once again and slashing it up.  I hope I can skate remotely that good in 7 years.Carleigh – 5 front D’s in a row!Me – Got a few hurricanes.  Came close to skating well for me, but not quite.  Got the rare front 50 to front D to back smith.In the end it was just Carleigh and I and we tried back disasters forever.  Neither of us have done one before.  We both had a couple we should have landed.  I ended up getting one that started in back smith then just kinda flopped over into a not-decked-at-all back d.  Oh well, it’s a new trick.Super fun night.

This clip is ridiculously amazing.  Everything about it.  The skating, the spots and especially the filming and editing.  I’m gonna ditch work and go skate the one little brick area on campus now.
