skate journal: broomfield park after a rough day with some great people (nov 9, 2016 day 314)

After a really emotional day dealing with the election results and some tough news about Jason’s situation I went to Crisis then Broomfield with Jack and Carleigh. The No Love crew was there shredding and are always a fun crew to be around. There was a lot of people skating all over the park so it was pretty chaotic. I just kind of did my thing on the quartapotty and avoided ollieing for awhile. I had some fun slappy crooks on the parking block. Jack did a few no comply flips over it easily. Carleigh rattled off a few tricks on the brick qp before taking awhile to land back disaster. But when she did it was in a line with boardslide down the little rail. She had some black ledge boardslides too and some other tricks I remember commenting to Jack at how good they looked. Jack was trying backside flip nosegrinds on the black ledge. He got a couple. Crazy! I had a few crooks and mostly just did switch noseslide tricks because I didn’t want to ollie. I came close to switch noseslide shove. I was trying lines of back 180 into the bank then halfcab noseslide. If you could see the two hc noseslides I landed you would laugh. We ended as Jack was trying cab nosegrinds and I was trying 360 flips on flat. Neither of us got them. At least Jack’s trick would be a new one. Skating really helped the day. I am really happy I am friends with Jack and Carleigh.

Went into the garage, did a few nollie shoves and a few manual tricks on the sheet of wood.
