skate journal: Rampy with Greg and Derek (1/11/11)

Posted in Skate Journal on January 12th, 2011 by corpo

Day two of filming Nullers on Rampy. Probably gonna do another one or two and make what is hopefully a pretty banging montage. It was really cold outside, below zero. Derek drove from Northglenn in a car without heat. Now that’s dedication. Although it wore on him as it took him way longer than normal to get warmed up. Greg was ripping out of the gates. I skated ok, but quickly lost interest as I have skated Rampy so much lately. I took a few tries to get a hurricane and did a few of the other tricks I have before resorting to the beers that Greg brought to make filming more entertaining. Sick! Filming went good. Greg got so many lines it’s ridiculous. He skated the short side like no one else has and did about 10 fully decked (with the wheels lapped over the deck) rock ‘n roll tricks. Front rock, rock fakie, rock front shove out, front rock truck bash, fakie rock, fakie rock to back smith, etc, etc, etc. Derek got hung up on front nosegrinds pop out (never got it) for awhile, but managed other tricks like front blunt, blunt shove out, alley oop fakie back nosegrind and more like they were warm up tricks. Fun night. Those dudes are awesome.
