Earlier in the day I met up wtih Jack, Dan, Joe and Scotty P at research wood ledge spot. They were mostly done skating, I did a couple boardslides/noseslides that was about it.

After dinner I picked up Dave then Nate and we went to an almost deserted Frederick park. We all kind of cruised around a while, warming up our different ways. Nate had never been to the park before. I had a nollie front big over the hump first try that was fun. We settled in on the manny pad/euro pad area for most of the session. Nate and Dave had already manualled and nose manualed the pad. I was 2/10 on ollies up the taller pad. 0/1 on kickflips off. Dave and Nate also did the quick on to the lower pod then 50 the upper one. Both did it so well. I got ollie up, ollie up which was new for me I think. Those dudes were both trying front board shove transfers and getting close so I set my phone up. Nate would actually get 3 of them, the 3rd of which was so good. I took a while to get anything and was really struggling. Starting to huck slow flatground in between tries helped me feel better even if I only did a couple basics. The nose manual took me forever. Dave was so close to the front board shove transfer. Crazy the lights shut off and we were still trying. Those dudes rip, watching the footage man I skate way too slow. It was a fun session though.
