After work, a nap, a nice dinner, some basketball with Ollie and some laundry folding Jake and Carleigh arrived around 8 and we skated flat for awhile. A game of SKATE ensued. I managed to win it. Got heelflip, 3 flip, backside flip, fakie bigger flip and a few more. Carleigh almost learned no comply 180s. We posed some more tricks as we debated a spot. Fuzz had said Broomfield was dry and Carleigh and I had already talked about campus so we went there. We started out here at a little curb then two stair. Jake got the ollie, ollie first. Then Carleigh. Then me. Jake added front 180 up the 2. I tried ollie, kickfip, but didn’t get it. Next up we skated the little ledge that is right next to that. Jake and I got noseslides and Carleigh got wrecked trying to front 50 it. She claims that the ledge is easy to skate, but she’s wrong. It’s dark, got a weird approach, and just plain sketchy. She almost got the 50. I got a crooks pop out on it (would rather grind the whole thing). Next we went to the student center. Jake came super close to ollieing up the 4. I got a line of ollie up the two, back 180 down the 2, then ollie down the 4. Carleigh ate shit ollie’ing down the 4 then rolled off in anger. After a bit we joined her down below in the lit flatground area where she was learning 180 no complies ( I think she got one?). I tried a bunch of treflips and to ollie onto the tall planter and survive the skate stopper. Nope. The one time I got on it my front wheels locked in and I went forward. Doh. I slammed a bunch actually. I tired a bunch of 3 flips and fakie 3 flips. Never got the fakie one. After standing at work so much I don’t get as tired out skating anymore.
