Got up pretty early and picked up Riley to hit the new skatepark we’ve heard so many good things about.  In some ways I was disappointed when I first arrived, but in others I was more impressed then I would have thought.  It’s a great park.  Look for photos here soon.  I skated like crap all day.  I was not confident on my skateboard and survived a few close calls with death on the stupidist stuff.  Riley on the other hand destroyed that place.  He skated the big 3 and did back bigspin, switch flip, switch heel (first try), switch front bigspin and something else I’m forgetting.  It was so sick.  About the only thing I did that was new for me was grind around a corner the hard way, when the curb is convex.  Pretty fun.  That park rules.  I’d like to skate it again when I have more energy.
