skate journal: filmer glen (nov 22, 2014)
Picked up Carleigh and we went to NorthGLENn park to meet up with Derek, Riley, Nolan, Garret and Bernie. There was a party of scooter kids which had me bumming immediately. I mostly just cruised the bowl without hitting coping. I guess a couple little grinds and tile carves. Carleigh did a rad polejam rock to fakie. Man it ruled seeing Derek again. He is one of the best dudes to be around. Such a good skater and goofs around a lot. Riley and Nolan were ripping. I skated a little in between phone filming a bit. Got a kickflip to fakie on the flat bank. Yippee.
Then we went to this bowl where I did nothing but freeze my ass off filming and then pose out when I was done filming. Nolan killed it. Intro clip soon. Riley went from not being able to carve the shallow end to doing feeble fakie over the stairs. Derek was so funny. He started from the bottom the first couple of times right into ollie to fakie. He would eventually roll in on the deep end. Gnarly. Carleigh carved over the stairs every try, slashed the deep end and almost got back 50 in the deep. She had the Razor helmet to prove it.
Then we went to a somewhat nearby hip spot where we all skated. I filmed Riley do a rad line. Carleigh mostly learned back 270s. Bernie forgot the war paint, but got close to double b/s flip. Nolan tried switch front wallrides. Derek went 100mph and tried to wallride the whole building. I did a tiny kickflip.
