skate journal: little longmont park with ollie (May 12, 2012)

After a long morning of cold football watching (Ollie’s team got destroyed, but Ollie had a touchdown pass which was pretty rad) I needed to run some boards to SOL in Longmont. Ollie was down to join because he likes the park we could skate after. It was chilly and no one was there initially. We had fun. Ollie did ollies into the banks and 180s out of them. Near the end he managed a pop shove flyout which took him a long time. I had fun, did lots of basics since others weren’t around. 2″ ollies over the hip. Got an ollie up the tall ledge, turned around and flopped a tiny kickflip over the hip. Did a tiny flyout boardslide on the end of the smaller rail. Front 50’d the flat then downhill c hubba going about 2mph with my hands on the ledge. Had fun. At one point another dude showed up and basically just skated the park as fast as he could and would slide out and fall. He had some good stuff and I know skating fast is the new up rail so he’s on it.
