Went up to MRKT to sell some boards and give them some stuff for their Windsor run that I wouldn’t be able to attend.  When I showed up Chad and one other dude was there who left right away.  I was so hyped to skate the park with so few people to laugh at me.  Eric from MRKT showed up after awhile and eventually a couple others, but basically the three of us had the place to ourselves.  So awesome.  Eric was working on front tails on the east wall.  Chad did a sick line of kickflip to fakie then switch polejam.  I was kinda cruising around figuring out what I could do there that would normally be too embarrasing to try.  I settled on a run where I would ollie a bump, back 50 on the jersey barrier, roll in to the halfpipe area, back 50, rock fakie, fakie smith fakie.  Never got the last trick, but was hyped to finally roll in to something taller than a curb.  Chad did another run that was ridiculous.  HUGE ollie over the b/s hip, rock fakie then cab flip over the hip.  So retarded.  I finally tried to ride over this weird wall thing that I normally wallie out of and got it second try.  Cool.  I also did a really, really bad wallie frontside grab.  Never done that before.  Also got a b/s 5-0 on the brick bank over the bench.  Before leaving Chad and I played the longest game of SKATE ever.  Chad won, but it wasn’t easy.  I struggled with treflips and of course missed all the nollie/sw flips/heels.  Super fun night.  Oh, and today is 150 days of skating for the year.  Halfway to my jock goal of 300 days of skating this year which is gonna be really hard.
