Went to Broomfield park around 11am on a Friday I had off work. It was beautiful outside even though the snow clouds were looming over the foothills. I was just me and another dude for awhile. I was still totally rusty, but started feeling better. I just kept skating. It took 5 tries to land a kickflip. Ha. I was scared to try lots of stuff, but I kept at it. I really didn’t land much in 3 hours, but I got some stuff I was happy with. Front 50s on the little ledge and even one on the black ledge. I haven’t done that “tall” of a front 50 in a long time. I can’t really think of any other tricks I was hyped on until the very end when I started dorking around with switch front crooks on the low part of the brown banked ledge. Somehow it worked, I got into a few right away and actually even landed one. It felt rad. Dave on the other hand was slaying it. Boardslide across and down the rail, almost feeble to boardslide down it. Solid 50s on the ledge, bag lady on the brick qp, so much more I’m not remembering. Oh near the end we tried a flatground trick, quartapotty trick, trick on the steep bank. Dave did back bigpsin, back d (I think?) then front tail on the bank. Gnar. I did halfcab flip, front feeble, axle stall (I think). It was so rad, Dave was landing back bigspins! I can’t believe I lasted 3 hours.
