skate journal: Denver spots with Nullers (April 3)

Nate, Josh and I left for Denver on a cool morning that was supposed to be super warm. Right out of the gates Josh was ripping and I was sucking. I ended up continuing to suck and having problems ollieing a tiny flat gap or attempting anything on the benches. The saving grace was a decent front board on the bench and doing ok in a game of SKATE.We met up with Mikey and went to a gap that I think I filmed decent enough, but Mikey didn’t get his trizzle tre on the ground.Next I filed Jeffrey jump over a bush and filmed it kinda mediocre. Although there was no filming that would do it justice unless he would have done it multiple times so we could get more angles.Next was a pretty much epic session for others at an abandoned hotel with a very tight pool and a bunch of crackhead squaters. I wanted to skate the pool, but a few dudes were lurking with us and talking incoherently and I had my camera backback and didn’t want to leave it’s side. Josh killed it with a carve over the lightbox, Jeff, Greg, Nate and Mikey killed it too. The locals we’re straight trippin’ when Mikey ollied into the pool. I would have loved to film that, but I should be happy that my camera is still my camera.Then we ended up at a curb going down a long 5 stair and after about 50 tries Nate and I boardslid it. It was super scary to me showing I guess, just how bad I am at skateboarding. Mikey, Josh and Jeff we’re doing whatever they wanted on it. I also almost cali grinded it too, but ate shit instead. All in all it was a fun day even though I skated horribly. I just have to remind myself I was injured for awhile and am getting back in to it.
