skate journal: cold broomfield new years eve with cass and a little darin (dec 31, 2024)
Last day of 2024! The sun was out, but somehow it felt way colder than 34 degrees. I struggled pretty bad this session. Was able to front 50 the black ledge first try, but struggled with a slow one on the ledge into the bank. Also took too many tries to do a noseslide to fakie on the bank to ledge. Darin rattled off quartapotty tricks. Cass had nice front noseslides on the black ledge. Before the sun set it was quite cold and just Cass and I remaining. We skated the bank to curb. Cass learned blunt to fakie and blunt to pivot. I took forever to do a line of hurricane then front 50 the ledge into the bank. Followed it up with a crooks on the black ledge at least. I also got an axle stall to rock ‘n roll which felt cool.
