There’s no way I could go to Fremont and not play Joe in a game of SKATE.  He had to be to the church for the wedding by 11am so we got out and played some SKATE in front of his house around 10.  Joe started pretty slow and I started super slow for what may have been the longest game ever.  Joe had me SKAT to S, but couldn’t seal the deal and I eventually came back and won it.  Flip tricks felt really weird.  Mostly due to my legs being messed up from sitting and editing for the last two weeks, but the new setup was partly to blame too.  After the game of SKATE Eric and I did slappy curb tricks for awhile.  Then I dropped those guys off and went to Linden.  I took a long time to warm up, but got a new trick somewhat quickly.  Front 5-0 to front board.  I got a lot of back 50s too which is hard for me.  Back 50, back 50 back 180 out, back 50 back shove out, back 50 horrible front 180 out.  I also tried a lot of front nosegrinds and front smiths.  Never got the nosegrind, but pulled out a couple short smiths.  Fun times.
