Had the day off work. Left my house by 9am solo looking forward to a day of no schedules or anything. Drove to this Thornton park sipping on a smoothie listening to the new J Mascis album loudly. It was awesome. Arrived at the park and there was only a couple dudes there. Had a tougher time warming up then I would have thought, but finally settled into some lines until I got them. Fakie flip on flat, tiny f/s halfcab over a hip, front slash the tight qp. Halfcab flip, kickflip over the hip, feeble stall the qp, bean plant the hip. Switch front 180 into a mellow bank, ollie up the euro, front 50 down the ledge on the back of the qp, f/s flip the hip (only landed one with my hand down). Tried to ollie the three stair then b/s flip the hip, but never got the b/s flip. Another older dude had shown up and was killing some ledges which was rad. He was rocking headphones on a solo tip. I really struggled at ollies again. Couldn’t front 50 a regular ledge to save my life. Struggled on the qp, got a front d. Rolled into the 4 foot section pretty easily.
