Warm day, nice night. Jake came over around 6:30 and we went to meet Jack and Ladd at “Jack’s spot”. But when we got there they had left. Oh well Jake and I skated it anyway. It took us awhile before we could even hit the qp. We tried ollieing up the curb like Jack does, but it didn’t work for us. We eventually dragged the heavy sign that Jack used to kickturn on and were able to find a way to throw down with enough speed for the qp. This spot is 1000x worse and harder then it looks in these photos. The cracky lump right before the qp really throws you off and the lack of setup time is so hard. With that said it took Jake and I a long time before any trick was landed. We both got rock ‘n rolls to start. Then front rocks followed shortly after that. I added a feeble and an axle stall after a bit longer and then somehow managed a front axle stall. I was hyped. I could have kept skating it, but Jake was understandably over it. We went back to my house and played a game of SKATE in front of my house. It ended up being a long one with some surprises from both of us. I got 360 flip first try. Jake got heelflip and I couldn’t seem to land a heelflip. I landed a lot of the tricks Jake normally gets a letter on me like fakie f/s bigspin (aka the Creepy Spin), fakie 360 shove, nollie f/s bigspin and f/s flip. I hucked a few tricks like f/s halfcab heel, fakie tre, varial heel. Only the fakie tre was close. I would eventually win after getting tricks like fakie bigflip and b/s flip.
