Headed to Lafayette by noon. Ollie and I were gonna skate for awhile then head to 303 to sell some boards. It was warm out, but there were thunder clouds moving in. Steve V was there as was Sam from 303 and Ollie and I joined them on the bank to curb section. That area is a blast. Doing the line on the waxed bank then going through the pumps at the start of the snakerun is fun. Warming up went ok. I could tell I had skated a lot of days in a row. Nothing really stood out for me until later. Ollie and I were skating the same area again. He got the little front slash that’s hard for him. I almost had a line of hurricane, pump and turn, scratch grind on the tight corner qp then front tailslide, but someone got in my way. We skated the pier 7 ledge are for awhile. Jake had shown up and did a bunch of front tails on the double sided ledge. Squeeks was there and back tail and back lipped it. Kia and I did back to back boardslides. I took a bunch of tries to back 50 the granite ledge. Treflips on flat were going good. Then we went over to the blue bank area and Ollie started a trend of bouncing his board off the rubber section to start his line. It was hilarious. Parris had joined us too and there were 5 grown men trying to bounce their boards and land on them. Ollie was pretty hyped. Jake and Squeeks ollied up the 3 stair easy. I couldn’t. Parris had some rad back tails and boneless combos on the banks. We tried a bunch of flippers on the blue bank at the end. I had halfcab flip and bigflip. Tried treflip to fakie and fell on my board and rode down it on my butt backwards. So funny and the end of the day. Ollie finished with a sick ride up the bank to manual the blue manny pad. So good!
