derek, connor, bernie, trent

Planned a Null day and it came to fruition. It was almost warm in Boulder, but Bernie was meeting Trent in Thornton so I went that way too. I picked up Derek and we met Connor there. It was cold as shit. There was a really cold breeze. Trent was ripping it. Crooks, feeble, back tail the step up to flat bar. Bernie was almost doing this crazy spin around manual. Derek skates parks so good and even just cruising around he kills it. Connor is so casual, but the first try front 50 up the hubba really surprised me. Everyone tried manuals for awhile. Manual the little manny pad and go all the way to the little quarterpipe. Derek did some where he manualled, dropped to manual, went to front 5-0, back to manual then to another front 5-0. So ridiculous. My head started getting too cold at this point so I made a push for us to leave. We went back to Boulder where it was indeed warmer. I just filmed at that point though. Derek got a good trick. Go Null!

It was supposed to get into the upper 30s, but it didn’t. Instead I went to red curbs in 25 degree weather wearing a winter jacket and gloves. It was pretty fun for awhile. I didn’t have much motivation though and didn’t want to make my sinus infection worse so only skated for about 30 minutes. I just did a few front/back 50s and front tails, kickflips, manuals.

Was finally starting to feel a little better after fighting a gnarly cold/sinus infection for a few days. Liz and the kids were gone so I put Pretty Sweet on and stood on my skateboard in the living room for awhile. Then I did some kickflips. I told myself I had to do 10 in a row. After two misses I ended up doing 17 then sat back down. This winter weather is getting pretty old. It’s even cold out on Rampy.
