skate journal: broomfield with Monico! (feb 24, 2024)
On a breezy spring day I met Sean, Monico, Matt, Chris at Broomfield park. At the start I mostly just filmed Monico since he had to leave shortly. He ollied up the six in no time and did a couple of combos with his bro. Chris and Sean rattled off flippers. Monico and Matt also skated the deadly 6 stair rail and survived. I was tentative, but felt way better than the day before. I would do a few tricks that involved pop which felt alright. Noseslides, one crooks on the black ledge, fakie 50 the blue ledge, some boardslides and a first try kickflip that made me really happy. Came close to first try fakie bigflip too. Sean rattled off a banging line. I felt like I didn’t overdo it, but I got home and was so exhausted I crashed.

(pain level 4/10 really felt pretty good for the most part)
