skate journal: broomfield park with dave then some safeway blah (may 28, 2017)
Met Dave at Broomfield park on a bright, sunny day. The park was mostly empty when I first got there. I felt motivated, but was on the big setup from the night before (with even bigger wheels) and it felt a little weird. Nothing really stands out, but I did more ollies than I have in awhile. Dave was shredding on a 7.75. Back 50s on the black ledge, front tail on the steep bank, back 50 nollie shove blue ledge, bigspins on flat, front nosegrind the blue ledge in a long line and the sick back nosegrind to end it! We also tried treflips for awhile. I couldn’t put my feet on it, the board would land upside down. I did my first front 50 shove in awhile on the little blue ledge. Had some noseslides on the brown ledge that felt good, struggled on the quartapotty. It was a fun session. Then I went over to Safeway ledge. I had gotten incredibly stiff/sore in the 3 minute drive so I had to completely warm up again. I basically just did some 50s both ways. Front 50s felt really good.
