Brought Ledgy out and drove around trying to find somewhere dry to skate it. I looked at Red Curbs and there was water everywhere. So I figured most parking garages would have water in them from cars dragging it in. I found a nearby lot that was lit well and had a good section of flat that was dry. I was warming up just skating flat for awhile when a security guard came, slowed down, then drove right on by. Rad. I was skating an old Null 8″ board because I really hated that MJ board. The Null 8″ is longer then the Chocolate 8.1. I skated pretty bad and I didn’t like how small the 8″ felt. I didn’t do much on Ledgy, I don’t like it very much. But I had the dream of doing halfcab noseslide 270 shove out. I didn’t get close to the 270 shove out, but I did get better halfcab noseslides then normal. If I ever get that trick I would be beyond hyped. I never got a front 50, I came somewhat close to front nosegrind. Got a couple crooks. Flip tricks were not good at all really.

(setup: 8″ null, venture 5.25 lows with 3 washers inside, venom 91a bushings, 50mm bones stf V1 wheels, nbnumeric pj stratford 533 steel/gum)
