Not a bad day for a rain day after partying so hard at Dinosaur Jr. After awhile we ended up at Orchard skate shop which impressed all of us. They have a ramp inside and let us skate for as long as we wanted to. We probably skated for two hours as we were waiting for Rob to show up. Carleigh ripped it. Matt and Joe came through with their moves and I kind of just blew it. Pat skated it a little. The vibe was great though and it was so cool to be skating instead of complaining about the rain.

Matt blunt to rock fakie, but mostly just a cell phone shot to show the ramp.

After some driving we ended up at this skatepark called Boardwalk I think. It was crowded. Rob and I skated the ramp the whole time. Carleigh joined us for a long time, but skated the ledge with others as well. There was some dudes ripping. Joe and Matt were some of them. Pat skated flat mostly, but managed to do a fakie blunt bigspin out. Ridiculous. After some troubles warming up I basically did every single Rampy trick I’ve done. Even tricks like fakie pivot fakie, fakie hurricane, front feebs, back 5-0 fakie. Hyped! Near the end Rob, Carleigh and I got in a race for a beer. Carleigh was trying kickflip rock fakie, and Rob and I were both trying kickflip pivot (or axle stall). Carleigh was first, but it took a long time and Rob and I were solid sweat before we gave up. So fun. Kind of funny that I only skated Ramp while in Boston though.
