skate journal: boulder high with carleigh (feb 23, 2011)
Posted in Skate Journal on February 23rd, 2011 by corpoLong day at work followed by dinner with my parents and family in Longmont. Got home around 8:30 and picked up Carleigh for a short session. She had to be back around 9:30 so I just went to the closest spot – Boulder high. I ended up having fun. We skated the back mostly and I mainly just wanted to ollie onto one of the benches, drop off then quickly ollie onto the next. I got close, but had a few close calls where I would almost slam into the second one. I basically kept making a line further and further out until I ran out of space. By the end I was trying ollie a short 3 stair (super hard approach), front board (jib) a light pole pillar, kickflip a crack gap then hit the benches. One time I nailed my shoulder so hard on the wall. Ouch. Carleigh mostly just tried varial heels and got pretty close. So sick. We went towards the car and hit the 4 stair then flat gap. I ollied both first t, then went back and did a better ollie down the 4 and a front 180 on the gap. Carleigh did both first t too. Short session, but fun.
