Sam did such a ridiculously good job on this. Can’t wait to see the finished product on DVD this time!
Went up to Cheyenne pretty early on a super nice day. The crew was Max, Carleigh, Sean, Jack, Josh, Dean and Lester. After dropping some boards off and buying some records at Ernie Novembers we went to the Cheyenne skatepark. John Doe Zine was hosting it’s annual St Flattys Day. I’m gonna start with the craziest stuff first. The kid above was killing it. He almost ollied the two stair, attempted pressure flipping the fatty to flatty gap and straight up made all the Null kids feel a lot of pressure. This kids dad killed it too. He was almost as good as me.
After several unsuccessful attempts at landing the kid above on Null I gave up and skated a little. I’m in a weird state. I feel like I can’t really skate so I just kind of dork around and not do anything. Seeing as how all the Nullers were intimidated by the kid in the DC/Monster Energy shirt we all skated the little qp above. Sean and Jack did funny tricks to staple gun. I however got tech and did a trick I don’t think I’ve ever done before and one I know I’ve never done before. Blunt to rock fakie and blunt to front rock. I also did a few back disasters (which as you may know being a loyal follower of this lovely blog) is a trick I have only done a handful of times. To round out my sucking I also did a couple front disasters on the mini ramp and my only decent trick of the day was to back 50 over the stairs on the steep bank. Oh yeah I street skated a little too at the school spot. I kickflipped up a ledge going 2mph then ollied a small ledge at 1 mph. I was hyped and left it at that. Didn’t want to push it, but man it felt good to do some real street skating (no, not “real street” as in X-Gaymes shit, just real skateboarding aka not in a park skating). Then I filmed forever and kinda sucked at that too. Sorry Max.
Cheyenne wasn’t ready for Dean and his interpretive dance/skate routines. He pretty much shut down the bank with this one. He also killed it with photos and slammed really hard trying to ollie a ledge. Easily the hardest I’ve seen him slam before.
This was really embarrassing. Max was feeling the pressure from the Monster Energy/DC kid and tried to ollie the two stair. Well, he didn’t make it and fell into the guy above who ended up hardflipping the flatty gap (at least I think he rode away). As I said, really embarrassing. Sometimes I wonder why I hang out with Max. Okay okay, I remember why now, because he kills it. May have even scored his ender. Good work Max.
Shaun lives up in Cheyenne with Matt and he rips. Seriously rips. Here is just a few of the tricks I saw him do that made me shake my head and doubt that the Monster Energy kid is the future. Front heel the long two perfect. Back 5-0 270 on the little qp. The long back 5-0 to fakie in the photo above. Switch back 180 the flatty gap. Almost frontside flipped it too. All that on a 7.5″ board and monster cupsoles with no complaining whatsoever.
While I’m on the Shaun tip, Sean rips too. Everything he does looks perfect. He even laughs at some of my jokes. What a good guy! Ha. He did a lot of tricks on the bank at the park, killed the school and got the kickflip above at the last spot.
That’s Jack hiding behind the pole adjusting the wrap on his newly sprained wrist. He wasn’t supposed to skate and for the most part he didn’t. Long enough to take his pain out on his board, but not long enough to remember his trucks at the spot. He took lots of great photos, videos (sometime soon perhaps?), chilled and looked as pretty boy as usual. That’s Rich from JDZ with the high end HD camera showing his disappointment in the null team for just sitting around. Stoked your still killing it Rich!
Matt is still one of the most positive, raddest dudes you will ever meet. He darn near switch flipped the flatty gap. Wow.
Carleigh was the most hyped on it being St Patty’s Day. Over and over again “Happy St Pattricks Day!” She did a nice front 50 while someone cheered for me. When Jack gets the clip online it’s funny. She does a perfect front 50 and you hear “Yeah Glen”. What the hell could I have been doing that was even 1/4 as cool? She also showed me up by ollieing the ledge I ollied at speed and from a harder angle.
Lester killed it all day. Jibbed lots of ledges. Wowed some Cheyenne short short wearing girls to Deans liking.
Josh. I’m trying to find a way to make fun of Josh, but I can’t. He destroyed the park. Destroyed it. He smiled all day. He skated all day. He filmed a couple good lines in no time. He crooked up a rail. He did 500 tricks on the steep bank. Good stuff.
