I was more tired than I should have been from a snowy hike in Rocky Mountain National Park.  Ollie and I went to the park on another nice, but windy day.  Somebody had shot paint balls at the park so there was wet pink paint on all the obstacles.  Luckily there was a dirty old hoodie lieing around so we cleaned up with that.  The warm weather and high winds dried up everything except the ledge area and a streak near the table top thing.Ollie ripped it.  He did a halfcab rock on the quarterpipe, manualed the table top without scraping a few times, tried to grind the 4 ft qp, and learned full cab kickturns on the flat bank which he then proceeded to do everywhere.  Hyped me up.  I finally landed a back 50 on the weird bank to curb, manualed the ledge, did some ollies on the qp, got a first try front tail on the small qp, got a front D on it too and skated the tranny more.  This was all fun until I got into a sketchy back 50 on the bank to ledge and decided to commit resulting in a really bad slam.  My shoulder felt pretty jacked.  I skated for awhile longer, but nothing special.  I had more fun just watching Ollie have a blast smiling up a storm and skating like a kid.
