As many of you know a few of us have been putting in tons of hours keeping an eye on Jason who is in his 5th year of fighting ALS. He is one tough dude. This experience has been crazy, wonderful and exhausting. I couldn’t do it without my friends. These people are some of the greatest people on earth!

skate journal: post-work bikepath ledge fun (oct 31, 2016 day 305)

Went to this spot after work feeling pretty tired. Started with basic lines beginning at the top and worked my way up into slightly less basic lines. First was ‘slappy’ noseslide then rock ‘n roll the bank. Then ‘slappy’ noseslide to fakie and cab rock the bank. Slappy crooks then no comply bigspin the hip. Slow and little back 50 then kickflip to fakie over the hip. Eventually got slappy crook, noseslide the tall part of the ledge then a tiny back 50 up the lower escalator ledge. Got hyped on that. Came close to some nollie heels on flat. Got one front 5-0 down the escalator part, kind of one front tail on the top of the main ledge. Ended trying a line of slappy crook or back 50 ( I was alternating) then a 360 flip over the hip. Got close a couple of times, but got tired and needed to be home for dinner. Happy to be making more of an effort to skate ledges again rather then just skating flatground all of the time.
