After a gruesome Memorial Day drive down the mountains I met up with Nate.  Feeling a little sad about not going to Co Springs with the Factory I didn’t think anyone would be around.  Not that the family vacation wasn’t totally awesome, but passing on a skate trip with the bros aint easy.  Nate had just gotten back from Portland and was willing to take some time off work for a hour or so session so I met him at google.  I had new shoes:Supra Sports aka the Tom Penny shoe.  I’ve had these shoes before and they blew out quick.  This time I super glued the stitching though.  Anyways, I met Nate and we went to the KGNU manny pad.  Nate killed it out of the gates.  I think he did 5 different manual tricks before I landed a nose manny (which I had to resort to because I couldn’t land a regular manual).  Nate did so many tricks.  Halfcab manual back 180 out, halfcab nose manual nollie b/s 180 out, f/s nollie 180 noseman, nollie nose man, so many more.  The one that got away from him was the nollie back 180 nose man 180 out.  He came close though.  I was hyped to get a sw front 180 manny (with heel drag) and kickflip manny heel drag.  Came close to nose manny shove and then out of the blue did a slow nollie front shove manny 3rd try.  That trick made my day.  It was hot and we sweated and it was fun.
