Biked over to Saul’s after a nap on a beautiful night. Had a few warm up runs then we went to move a hot tub. An hour or so later we were back and it was time to skate. The crew was Dave, Will, Saul, Peewee and me. Dave killed it. He does so many really long lines now with so many different tricks. The long grinds back 50s and 5-0s out of the hip transfer are amazing. The front 5-0s, the manuals, all of the old school plants. So good. Will is a quiet killer. Front smiths, chink chinks, switch 50s all in long runs with speed. Saul front slashed the bricks first try, long runs of linked slashes done really fast, and can have a conversation doing axle stalls. Ha ha. Peewee rips with a casual style. Lots of ollies, long grinds and flow. The opposite of me. Carve grinds have become one of my favorite tricks ever. I also got some axle stalls, little grinds, and it was really really fun.
