This part is incredibly awesome. Flip tricks, dork tricks, no complies, big tricks, small tricks, manual tricks and it all looks incredibly fun, the music is funny and it’s edited well. Winner.

skate journal: campus with carleigh, chad and max (Aug 15, 2011)

After we all met at Meta we rolled into campus. First stop was UMC and I was having a really tough time warming up. I blame it on the swimming sunday with the kids. Totally wore me out. Anyways, Max wasted no time in destroying it. Nose manual the three stair, ollie the five, little bonks on the ledges above the five, etc. Chad tried to follow suit, but seemed kind of out of it. Me and Carleigh tried lines to the ledges off the five stair. She managed to ride off it successfully before me, but then went on to say how lame it was. Geez, I was kind of stoked. Ha. I did a little rock ollie, ollied up on the ledge, rode off, front 180 off the 3 stair. That spot is super fun. It should be lit better. Chad managed a manual front 180 around the 3 stair. Next up we went and played on a long set of stairs that we just rode down. Max killed it. Dropin to high speed ride down the stairs. It was probably about 15 stairs each being about 3 feet long. It was so dumb, but fun. All of us were able to ride down them all. Max did b/s flip out of the last one, back 180 into switch ride down, all kinds of craziness. He was ripping.

We went to the spot above where Max kept killing it. Chad filmed Max above with my phone. I failed at 360 flips the whole time and was cursing the big board, but I think it was just because I was super tired. Overall a fun night though.
