skate journal: Broomfield park (Nov 1, 2010)
Another busy day. Got off work, played football with Ollie for a bit, made dinner, packed up quick with boards to head to Fuzz’s. Picked up Jason and Jake on the way and Neil and Carleigh would meet us there. Jason and I always start out the best. By that I mean we can barely ollie up the blue curb. But things got rolling. Neil was already killing it. Perfect wallies into the bank, lipslides up the convex ledge, back d’s bricky, ollies over the rail super easy, etc. He puckered out pretty quick. Jake did a bunch of front 50s on the low to high ledge down the bank then manned up and did the 6 stair hubba. Gnarls! Fuzz was killing it as usual. Frontside sugarcane first try was hotness. Jason seemed to be right behind me the whole night. I worked on back 50s on the low to high for a bit and when I finally landed it curving to the right too much Jason was like “oh no I’m sorry” as his board shot out while front boarding the rail and went into me. We laughed. It was funny. Jason was ripping. Coast to coast feeble to fakie on brickey, front boards on everything, manuals, etc. I finally nose manualled the blue box again, followed it with front feeb on the quarta potty, back 5-0 on bluey. Treflips on flat were feeling good. After awhile something happened and I got frustrated though. So Fuzz being a kind sir agreed to dork around with me and we did some things on the mellow tall bank in the middle of the park. Fuzz started it off with manual, rock, fakie manual. I was trying to do a kickflip to fakie out of a rock on the top and Fuzz started trying it too. It took a few tries, but we both got it around the same time. We even did a couple of them. It was fun. Then Fuzz worked on b/s flips out and I worked on bigflip out which I somehow landed in less tries than the kickflip fakie. Hyped! Dork tricks rule! Jason was doing poppy back 180s into the bank then we ollied the six stair and I took some photos of Carleigh who had just shown up. Neato. Super fun night.
