skate journal: short ledge session with carleigh (Aug 3, 2010)
Posted in Skate Journal on August 4th, 2010 by corpoAnother exhausted night. Went swimming with the kids for a couple hours which was a blast, but very tiring. Went to go skating when I got back, but ended up watching the new TWS video a couple times and almost not skating. But Carleigh sent a text that she still wanted to skate after she skated Broomfield with TF. We drove around a bit looking for a new spot then hit the ledge behind Safeway. It looked dry so I put and entire test batch of graNULLa wax on it. Other than it getting everywhere it worked really well and the ledge was going in no time. Carleigh got a couple front 50, back noseslides and solid kickflips on flat. I seemed to do my basic tricks pretty quick, but never landed anything else. I tried a few halfcab crooks and failed miserably. Basically only getting my shoe covered in wax. Neat.
