skate journal: little arvada park with Ollie and the most annoying dudes ever (July 15, 2012)

Posted in Skate Journal on July 16th, 2012 by corpo

I’m not sure what got into me, but I was super tired over the weekend. I got plenty of sleep and didn’t drink beers so I have no idea what caused it. All day I sat around, trying to get motivated. Finally Ollie said he wanted to skate so I knew I had to. We went to little arvada after stopping by and watching a bit of street league at Crisis. When we first got there the park was empty. Amazing. Ollie was cruising around with a huge grin doing little kickturns/grinds and genuinely looking like he was having a blast. I was sucking. Struggling with everything. Then some dudes came that were decent skaters, but they were just super loud and obnoxious and oblivious to the fact that there were kids (families at the playground a few feet away) around. It definitely bummed out Ollie and me. But we skated. I don’t think either of us did much. The only new thing I did there was a crooks on the steep bank. I got a rock ‘n roll on the shallow pool corner too, but I think I’ve done that before. Ollie did some rock ‘n rolls both ways on the little qp at the top, I got front feeb and smith on it and we called it a night.

skate journal: Broomfield trannie day with Steve V! (July 13, 2012)

Met up with Steve V (college buddy I haven’t seen in a couple years) at Crisis. Did some Null business, shot the shit with Fuzz, Dean, Conor and Blaine for awhile then headed over to the park. Almost no one was there. We skated the bowl to start. Deano was in the mix. Connor lost interest in about 2 seconds. We carved around, did some 50s, that was about it. I was surprised to get back 50 on the pool coping first try. We hit the street section for awhile and it was apparent quickly that I wasn’t on my A game. We kinda played on the quartapotty, blue ledge and that was about it. Steve is mostly a trannie skater so he was hyped ollieing onto the blue ledge. Dean was trying halfcab manuals and getting every halfcab up. That was sick. I had a couple no comply 270 to back tails, a few kickflips, then we went back to the pool. We couldnt drop in, but we carved around which was fun. I got a little tile in the shallow which hyped me up, but man that pool is hard to skate. Back to the bowl. If it wasn’t for my contacts being so dry and almost falling out mid runs I would have had a blast. Had a few tiny ollies, faster carves, rock ‘n roll, back 50s, front slash. Steve had a good time too, that’s him above. Then we went and hung out for awhile at Fuzz’s. Fun times.
