After a night of celebrating Obama winning the election I may have actually had a hangover for the first time in forever.  But it wasn’t much and I was hyped to finally be able to setup a new deck.  I had been waiting on account of the election to see how to decorate my griptape.  I went the emo “YES WE DID” route.  Whatever, I’m not about to be embarresed about my excitement on Obama being our next president.  Anyways, my flaground was pretty weak, but getting used to a new board isn’t easy for me.  It was fun and Ollie joined me for a bit at the school.  He manualed a section of sidewalk and landed by rolling off the curb.  Pretty rad really.Later on it was Neil, Brian, Gordon and me meeting up with Chris, Chad, Grant and some other Ft COllins heads at the Longmont park.  It was a rad session until Brian, Neil and Gordon wanted to go home way before I wanted to.  Oh well, it was cold and I was tired anyways.  I got into a few noseblunts on the flatbank and maybe even started getting an idea of how to land them.  I also landed a smith grind on the little ledge.  It was a weak one but I’m hyped that I’m starting to get that trick.
