On a cool morning that warmed up very quickly I met up with Cass, Sean and Kevin at Broomfield park. I had nothing, tried very little and hated my setup. Got smoked in a game of SKATE with Cass. Sean and Kevin were ripping.

We checked out a couple spots, got a boot, filmed a bit then and impromptu session ensued on a little mini street hip which are basically my favorite things ever. I had done a backside flip pretty quickly so then setup the camera after and couldn’t do it again as well, but I still had a blast. Collin, JJ, Cass, Donnie, Garrett, we all skated it and had fun. I love sessions like this and would like to go back and huck some harder tricks.

Then we ended up at the downhill dragon ledge spot. I took a couple tries to roll into it, but that was fun and I thought a switch noseslide 270 shove would be easy. Nope. Never got into it and got so bummed. Collin ollied the bar and almost kickflipped it. Joe, Donnie, Garrett also skated the ledge. Donnie was skating it switch which was pretty amazing. I mean ha, I was too, but he was actually ollieing into switch 50s. Garrett came up short trying his trick which was a bummer. Then we were all so hungry and decided to get some food and good times were had.

After a cold Martin Acres pancake breakfast I went to the hill and watched the 303 King of the Hill contest for a while. The rain kept messing with it so Sean, Collin and I went to the library spot. We were not alone in this decision as it was very crowded. I had put Ace highs on. Felt okay. I didn’t skate well at all, but did manage some slow flippers in between people that made me happy including a treflip that was barely a make. Sean and Collin were shredding.

We went filming and met up with others. Got the boot from a church. Ended up at Casey where Sean and Collin easily ollied up the ledge and Garrett put down a rad tailslide bigspin. Collin and I messed with a cool wallie nollie in the back. He actually did it, but didn’t take the drop.

Next we went to the ride on grind that was nearby where I made a fool of myself. Garrett, Sean, Collin so easily did the ride on grind. I was trying to line out a kickflip up the curb then grind it, but was really struggling with the kickflip. I was kind of in the zone for a while, but then a couple cars of teenagers showed up. They were fine and all, but watching them progress right in front of me bummed me out. I got close again as it was getting dark, but ultimately didn’t really care so gave up. Garrett had gotten his banger anyway. Thanks for filming Jack!
