skate journal: tgif afternoon sun at broomfield (feb 28, 2025)
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.
