Met up with Dave here. He started on the manny pad. I started doing 180s off one of the ledges and some slow slappy stuff. Then we both skated the manny pad and it was fun. Dave came so close to a ton of tricks. I forget all what he actually landed. But halfcab manual, almost hc manual back 180, nose manual, almost hc nose manual, a lot more. Plus he was trying switch front bigspins and wearing new Adio shoes. How’s it possible to have new Adios? Ask Dave. I got nose manual, but couldn’t get nose manual shove. Got a first try switch front 180 to manual, then tried it over and over and only got a couple more. Got one kickflip manual with a toe scrape, but not a clean one. Also had a fun line with nose manual, ollie up the ledge and back 180 off. Landed a double flip to complete stop.

Then we somehow ended up messing around on this. It was funny. It’s totally hidden, you can’t get much speed, but it was still fun. We both got front noses to fakie, front nose 270 out (aka the Helmstetter), front 50s going oh so fast. I got a crooks somewhat and posed some kickflip nosestalls. Kinda got into one, but didn’t get up on it.

Then we skated above it at this little spot. Dave wants to wax it and lipslide up it past the one stair. That would be so sick. I ollied and front 180’d into the bank and they were so fun that I tried kickflip too. It took awhile and a funny slame, but I got a good one. That was the end of the night. Street skating rules.

Worked 12 hours (the last 4 at home) then went straight to Broomfield park to meet up with Matt, John and Fuzz. Darin was there too. Fuzz was late so it was just the four of us for awhile. It was fun. Matt was actually appearing to struggle a little at the beginning. Whoa. We mostly just skated the angled brown ledge, blue ledge, quartapotty and flatground. I felt a little weird with the smaller trucks getting into grinds. I didn’t get frustrated about it though. I took a long time to get one treflip, got a lot of front tails on the qp, crooks on the brown ledge, don’t remember a whole lot more. John had some long lines going that had his patented switch front noses in them. He even did a front 5-0 which he is terrified of. Matt did fakie front 50 on the brown ledge, halfcab back 50s on the blue ledge, landed a kickflip in a game of SKATE, slammed on a treflip and ripped. Darin did his routines. The front blunts on the qp are sick. Almost did back 180 fakie 50. Fuzz showed up. Briefly. One roll around the park before some scooter kids got in his way and he bailed. Ha.
