skate journal: Arvada park blahness (Wed Aug 29, 2012)

Had one of those impulse “I’m gonna go to the skatepark” moments and went to Arvada. If Boulder had a decent park lit at night I would have love to just go there, but they have neither. My friend Steve was there as well as the No Love dudes and Jeff. Rad. I started out dorking around on the little bank/blue ledge. Jeff was ripping. Went to the bowl with Steve and some older people. Had fun in there. Got front d first t. Went to the top of the park with the manny pad and really started to feel like I suck at skateboarding. Couldn’t manual the box. Couldn’t boardslide the long ledge I’ve boardslide a bunch of times, couldn’t really do anything. I was bumming on the big setup big time. We hit the miniramp for a bit. I took way too many tried for front d and was so tired it was insane. We went up to the little qp by the bowl were the No Love dudes were brewing out (broh’ing out with beers) and that was the funnest part of the night. I did a lit of tricks on the qp including front feebs, front d and hurricane (which Andrew filmed). Steve got quite a few tricks as well as a couple others. At least I skated ok the end of the session.
