skate journal: brief rampy (Jan 31, 2014)
On what would have been my dad’s 67th birthday I headed out to Rampy on a cold and snowy night for a bit. I had been thinking of boneless disasters throughout the day and wanted to give it a try. After some warming up and some failed attempts at no comply to tail I realized I will probably never to a boneless disaster. I settled with a few frontside ollies, one of which might have been at coping level. I was trying to avoid flatground, but ended up doing a few kickflips and then some 360 shoves which is a rare one for me. Tried a few 540 shoves for the heck of it then to my surprise Ollie comes out with his board to skate.
Ollie was in his Broncos Champ Bailey shirt so I called him Ramp Bailey. So funny. He skated Rampy faster then I remember him in the past and he had some back and front slashes, his patented fakie ollies and body varials and some first try rock ‘n rolls both ways.
