Met Carleigh at Meta with the intention of skating campus after doing some business.  But instead Lazer and Jake showed up and suggested Red Curbs.  A covered parking garage on a perfect night?  So be it.  It ended up being fun of course, because when is Red Curbs not fun?  Lazer looked good with a shaved head and skated fast as usual and landed most tricks he tried.  Lipslides, tailslides, switch mannies.  Jake had lipslides too and was working on bluntslides and front 180 nose manuals.  Carleigh looked really tired again and although I thought she was landing most of her kickflips she said at the end of the session that she didn’t.  She may have got some mannies too.  I skated ok.  Was enjoying slappy front tails and trying front lips, but that trick hates me.  I tried back 5-o’s for awhile, but never got one.  Front 180 nose mannies were hard for me too, I got 1 out of 15.  At the end I finally got a manny to grind and then right as I got in my car I remembered I hadn’t landed a double flip yet so I tried one and landed what may have been my best double flip yet.  Sweet.
