Another beautiful “false spring” day in the 60s. I went to dog park pretty early and quite a few of the old crowd showed. Bratcher, Jesse, Gordon, Eric, Paul, Cass and Rob. Was really hyped Rob came and started getting his skate feet under him. Saw some manuals, back 50s, fakie bigs, nollie shoves, back 180s. Jesse left right away unfortunately. Bratcher getting his willy grinds on. Gordon pop, speed and sold basics. Haven’t seen Paul skate in a while either and was surprised how hard he was ripping. Seemed like he hadn’t hibernated all winter. Cass had some good back 50s and manuals. Saw a pretty gnarly Eric slam. I skated okay. Didn’t do anything that stands out, didn’t get overly frustrated. I liked some back 50s on the curb, one with a shove out. Struggled more than I wanted to on front 50s on the bench. Cass, Paul and I played a game of SKATE. Paul won it, I was happy to get a really fun feeling fakie bigflip, but not happy to get another letter on a treflip.

On an incredibly nice Friday I took the afternoon off work and met Will and Darin at Broomfield. I had some solid struggles at this session, only things I can remember liking were doing several heelflips on flat, actually 5 in a row at one point. they were supposed to be setups for treflips though, which I never even got close to. Will, Darin and Spencer did them well though. Will went in on kick back tails on the black ledge. He got into some, but never landed it. I really stunk it up, couldn’t really crook which was so frustrating, got one sketch front 50 shove, a halfcab noseslide that took forever. Darin rattled off his qp moves. I managed one back 50 on the blue lurb. Will was having no problems, same with Darin. It was cool seeing Spencer there, he was ripping and did 180s to fakie nose manuals on the crazy euro. Yes, both frontside and backside. I had one fakie bigflip I liked. We skated quite a long time, I really sore at the end.
