Ollie and I went to meet up with Brian and Neil for their Saturday morning skate lessons. We were late, but didn’t want to harsh their barge anyways and it ended up being just Ollie and I skating for a long time. So fun. He was ripping. He rolled in on one of the hubbas like it was nothing, was carving the little bowl pretty good and doing some ollies and stuff. I didn’t expect much that early in the morning, but had fun watching Ollie and cruising around. I got a run with an ollie onto the ledge, ollie into the bank, axle stall, ollie the hip. Then tried to do the same run with a b/s flip at the end, but stopped trying when Brian showed up with donuts. Brian is a wonderfully nice dude. Next up we chilled at Rock Creek for a bit since it was too crowded for Ollie to skate.After some lunch we went to Southern Hills which is under construction. Seems like the school will be slightly better to skate for the most part once they get rid of all the rocks and debri. We found a new little fly out spot on the road behind the school. We setup a couple thing to ollie over and I was hating life. Could barely ollie over a little 1 foot tall flower pot. Ugh. We went back to the main area where I struggled to ollie up the 2 stair. Ugh. Ollie started ollieing down it like it was nothing though. Rad! Before leaving I ollied some pipes and made myself do 5 flipppers as the rain started. It took awhile but I ended up getting frontside halfcab flip, b/s halfcab flip, fakie varial flip, varial flip and 360 flip. Gonna setup new shows and trucks because the ACE trucks bushings are totally shot, wobbly and the axles slip. Going back to Thunder. Wish me luck. Skating with Ollie is pure awesomeness.
