Rob, Kevin, Jack and I met at Fuzz’s on a gorgeous Saturday. We went to meet up with Chad L in Denver and started at a weird bank to curb. We lasted about 3 axle stalls and a front tail before getting the boot. Doh, it looked fun and had a grass ride option.

Then we went lurking for a bit and found a fun looking ledge, although it ended up not being the main attraction. There was a little median on an angled driveway into a parking ramp and then a little flat gap that became the main point of interest. Jack had done back 50 all the way around to shove revert out on the ledge. Kevin had done a back 50 or two and some front 50s. He even slammed on some back 50s. I was sore and kinda just posed noseslides. Rob was on the manual tip. Fuzz was doing quick up back 180 and maybe manual back 180. Jack also added some bigspin fakie manuals. Chad showed up around the time we were getting gnar on the gap. Rob back 180, no comply shove, almost kickflip. Fuzz fakie ollie, bs flip, switch 180, halfcab. Kevin heelflip, nollie front 180, nollie flip. Jack hardflip, bigspin, half pressure flip?, impossible, varial flip, 360 flip, etc. Chad gapped to manual and went around the building.

We eventually left and ended up at a weird little park. I didn’t really skate. Everyone seemed to be confused by it initially as it was a pretty weird spot. Jack messed around nearby. Eventually lines started happening and the camera came out. Chad did a long manual. Kevin did a line 3 times with manual to pop up a 2 stair, heelflip, wallie. Fuzz 180, switch 180, ollie. Jack was messing around doing crazy kickflip manual variations. Garrett joined and did some backside flips up the 2, manuals, nose manuals. Joe had joined us and attempted to skate up the gap Fuzz ollied down. Ha, he does have massive pop.

Last spot was this bank spot which is normally fun, but made for a weird session. Jack went in on the 5-0 jib right away and chilled after that. Joe had hardflips, showed me up on a kickflip to fakie, tried to do something on the pole. Kevin was trying to do a Rob influenced back 360, but gave up and did nollie flip and switch flip and even switch fs flip. Rob was doing front big then got a nice shinner on a nollie back 180 so focused his board. Fuzz chilled and shot photos. I was a crybaby and took like 10 tries to get a front shove to fakie. I almost focused my board. But I stuck with it, got a few basics and then got a halfcab flip which was a struggle, but had a good reward.

Fun day with the dudes.
