Needed to bring some Null goods to 303 and I got off work early so I brought Ollie and his buddy Sam to the Zuni park knowing there is a “kids” section and it would be fun for them.  It was really hot out, but no one was there really so we cruised around.  I was skating like total crap since I hadn’t got my old man nap after work and was really groggy.  Ollie took to ripping pretty quickly.  He did an accidental back 5-o on the little qpipe and then started trying them on purpose and landed everyone of them I saw him try.  If only he would stop pushing mongo.  Sam learned how to drop in and do rock fakies.  Those two had so much fun cruising around that park.  They would ride down the double 2 stairs, push, ride through the little bowl and then ollie into the grass and tumble down the hill.  Being a kid must rule.  Being old kinda sucks, I was stuck in a rut of trying a long line in which I would probably not even land on a good day: Ollie a little ledge, kickflip on flat, treflip on flat, ollie up the euro 5 stair, roll in to the 4 foot section.  Technically I did all the tricks, but definitely not in one line.  Ollieing up the 5 stair felt awesome and the roll in made me laugh for being afraid of it earlier on.  At the end of the session I tried back disasters for awhile on the tiny qpipe and landed a couple.  Rad, I’ve never done that trick before.  I followed it with a front feeble and we left.
