Last day of the trip. We had until around 3pm to skate. I did some flippers in the street for awhile while waiting for others to get ready. I was feeling alright. Then Dave and I played a game of SKATE. He won. I forget what with, but one trick was a switch front shove. Off to breakfast.

Then we hiked a hill (Tabor?) to start the day with a hill bomb. Fuzz called out everyone had to do a kickflip first. Handled.

Pretty fun way to start the day. Although Dave and I went the wrong way at one point and had to hike back up awhile to go the right way. It was cool though because we got to see the spot that young Rochester, MN ripper Alec Majerus destroyed.

Then we went to the Ed Benedict skate plaza. The park is incredible! Most of us were to sore and exhausted to take full advantage though. Carleigh ripped it though. Ollied the launcher, noseslid over a gap and flowed all around the park. I tried to skate, but had to give up. Had a crooks or two, slammed kickflipping the hip Nate is ollieing, landed the kickflip, ollied a 3 stair and felt too exhausted to skate so I stopped. Fuzz front tailed the weird bank at the entrance, ollied the launcher. Chris ripped it too. Ollied the launcher, some stairs, good back 50s some other stuff I can’t remember any more. Dave had a rad back tail on the bank, front 50 on the bank to ledge. Nate skated good. Fast back 50s, pop, crazy tricks. Matt cruised that park so easy. Fast ollies, tricks on the benches, back nosegrind the bench over the gap, and a crooks up the top of a rail. That was it. Such a fun trip.
