Met up with Dave around 9am at the Dog Park. We were both hyped after watching the BATB9 championships. Warming up went alright. Dave was skating a small 8″ board. I was feeling pretty good landing quite a few of my normal tricks, but kind of stall on 360 flip once again. I would get it though and landed my first clean 360 flip in a long time. No hands down. It felt really good. Dave did a cab bigspin and got close to several more of them. But the crazy thing he was doing was getting super close to 360 flips. He got so close. I didn’t land much more then my basics, but I did get close to a lot and the 360 flip felt really fun.

Then after a Crisis run we went to Safeway ledge for another fun session. I actually got some clean back 50s! It’s been awhile. Blaine was doing the coolest no comply back 5-0s. Fuzz got close to back 50 back 180 out and did lots of other tricks. And got a cool line for The Stubborns. Dave got a sick nosegrind and landed a couple front crooks. And almost a line with back 50 180 out followed by switch 360 flip. I also got kick back 50, close to kick back tail, a not-dipped-enough front smith and probably some more tricks.

We got a @null_skateboards restock today and then went out skating! @corpoglenny in the heat of it all. True to the game and one of the best dudes out…hella. #companyownersthatskate

Blaine took off and we ended up lurking for a bit. We ended up at a nearby park ‘n ride. I did a horrible wallie nollie or two and then filmed Dave almost get a rad line. Off to another spot. Fuzz and I took some artsy shots of each other doing jersey barrier rides and then we skated a glorified curb in a tight spot. Fuzz had a nice manual, back 50 and front 50s. I got lucky with a first try crooks then couldn’t do one again and some slow front 50s before we got the boot. We were lurking some other spots when I got called for work. Fun day.
