On a nice Sunday I picked up Jesse and we left snowy Boulder for an almost entirely dry Longmont. Jesse and I got there first and started the warm up process which is basically all I have now since I shouldn’t be ollieing yet. Jesse had some good flippers, fast plants, noseslides and slappies right away. I dropped in and did some slappies. Might have even ollied into grind a couple of times. I did have one fun dumb line of front slappy, slide around 180, switch noeslide, slappy front crook. Rob hasn’t skated this winter, but came and did some really long manuals. Dave’s back hurt so he kept it “mellow”. Nose stalls on the bank to sideways curb, crazy switch roll in to the brick median with a drop, ride on slides, switch slappy crook. It was a fun day with a good crew, but man I’m really looking forward to my knee feeling better and trying flippers again.
