Nate is in town!  To celebrate we randomly chose this spot to skate:We had gone to the 3 up 3 down on rumor that there was a smaller 3 there now, but it wasn’t what we thought it would be. So we seriously skated this curb cut forever. Tricks on the rocks, fly outs, tricks into the curb, etc. It was a blast. Carleigh has all the photos, so check her blog, but I snaked a few of them.Jason front pivot.Nate was popping head high ollies.Kickflipping in was super fun. We all skated pretty hard. Carleigh fell down a lot, but kept on smiling and laughing. Jason did about a million super good front tails where you’d ride over the bank into front tail. Nate got tech and did quite a few tricks in. Nollie flip, nollie front 180 and worked awhile for nollie cab flip. Ridiculous! I felt decent for the first time in awhile. Got kickflip into the bank and followed it with a kickflip in the tranny of the curb. Ha. I got a couple tailslides like jason, but nowhere near as good. Got lucky with a fakie tailslide. I was definitely having a blast. Such a fun crew. I screwed around with a dork trick for awhile. Oh wait, I guess every trick here is probably considered a dork trick by most. I was ollieing out to tail stall on a rock and trying to figure out a way to get out.Carleigh took a sequence of it! And look, I smiled when I landed something! Maybe I should do that more often. That trick was really fun.Carleigh put down a few pop shoves.Nate got the nollie full cab flip and we rolled out front for the handrail since we were warmed up.Nate done did this noseslide pretty quick.This manual took me a long time.Jason got into a noseslide, but didn’t land it. I guess this photo was for the BGPs though. Ha.After this we went to Broomfield. Monico, his brother, and some Crisis kids were there. I didn’t really see much go down. Nate did some good ledge tricks. Carleigh almost landed front 50 front shove out. I got 10 basic tricks on the blue ledge and pink slipped in a game of no comply SKATE with Conner. I did beat Nate in SKATE though! Fun night, cold! Check Carleigh’s blog for more.
