So awesome.

Not so hyped on the skating, but got stoked to see all the spots we skated last summer. And well yeah, PJ still rules it.

Everytime I go to Fort Collins I’m in love with their skate scene and skaters. This time was no exception. After hitting MRKT up I rolled over to Northside with Jake. The park was almost vacant. Awesome. My arthritis hot pocket feeling was in effect so I avoided ollies for the most part and for the most part kept it mellow (aka my skating was shit). I did manage a line starting near the flat bar of wallie the corner of the mustache barrier, front tail stall on the brick bank, wallie over the other end of the mustache barrier. Jake was ripping some big ollies and 270 transfers on the far side. That park rules. We tried noseslides for awhile. Jake was trying back nose to fakie, fakie treflip, kickturn then front nosegrind. Never got the nose grind. I was trying front noseslides and sucking. Landed one horrible one. Tried a bunch of back noseslide 270 shoves out. Didn’t really get that close. I’ll blame the arthritis. Next was the miniramp for awhile which was pretty fun. I got a few Rampy tricks (front d, back slash revert, fakie back smith fakie) wanted more, but Kyle showed up and shut it down on his opening run. Jake had done a sick no comply 180 staple gun though. Struggled for a rock ‘n roll on the taller barrier then pretty much just dorked around after that. Mike had showed up. Kyle was ripping one footed blunt slides on flat. Mike proved you can do treflips on 8.75″ boards. Jake has tres on lock. I did dumb 2mph back tail stall shoves on the little bank thing near the wall. Even though my arthritis was in effect I had a blast.
