Went to Denver park a little later then I had wanted. I was hyped to see Ashylnn when I got there though. She was playing a game of SKATE with some dudes near the entrance. I took a long, long time to feel remotely comfortable on my board and I was way more sore then I should be. I pumped the satellite dishes for awhile, avoided tranny, and bailed flip tricks. Eventually I settled in to a couple of lines. From the main gazebo area I did a little switch noseslide jib, a kickflip on the little bank, carved around one dish then the next and front 50 the little ledge. I can’t believe how hard I struggled with front 50s. Coming the other way I was trying crooks on the somewhat tall ledge then terrible back 50s on the little ledge. At least one of them grinded so I’m slowly getting those back. Had another line going that way of noseslide to fakie on the taller ledge, halfcab noseslide the little ledge and then a heelflip on flat. That line had me kind of happy. I skated flat for awhile until I landed a 360 flip (one hand down again 🙁 ). Hit the bump to ledge at the entrance a little, had a fun accidental front 5-0. Took a long time to do a tiny rock ‘n roll on the slippery bank to curb, but got a slappy crooks quicker.

Got out of work at a decent time on Friday. It was cold. The dog park was covered in water. I drive by this spot on the way to work often and decided it was time to finally check it out. There were some cool looking humps nearby that I thought would be fun, but they had huge cracks. I tried a couple of other nearby spots on the block before just settling on this spot. I skated flat on the top for awhile. My bushings were stiff from the cold. Flatground went ok. I got a 3 flip with only one hand down which is about all I can ask these days. Couldn’t get nollie tre and didn’t feel too close on switch flip. I ended on a line of a wallie nollie coming out of the corridor on the right then ollie off the loading dock. Fun way to end it.
