Up early in the morning again. Roxborough is a TF favorite and we thought the Fremonsters would enjoy. Rob and Neil met up and we took off with Ollie too. The drive was a pretty one and the park was almost empty when we showed up. It’s been way too long since the session to remember what to write about. Eric mostly skated the bowl he’s dropping into. Dan came through with the surprise again and fakie tail stalled the stallion. Sick! Joe and Dan were boardsliding the rails easy. Matt was popping up onto the ledge too. Rob, Neil and I were just kinda cruising doing lines. We tried some ollies on a hump at one point. Ollie was carving around good and having fun, but his allergies went nuts and he had to go chill in the car. Doh. It was a fun session, that park is a fun warmup.

Then we drove back to Boulder, dropped off Ollie and picked up Lazer and went to the research center ledge. Matt went off. Long front tail, nollie front 5-0, and filmed a banger line. Joe did a textbook fakie front 50 bigspin out amongst like 100 other tricks. Lots of chilling went down. I was the opposite and got super mad at skatebaording, but once I was done acting like a baby it started to be fun. Just in time to go.

Then we went to Longmont for one of our favorite spots in the area. We ended up staying for quite some time and closed out the trip there. Several others joined us and people would be skating the bank while others were skating the ledge while others were skating flatground. I was so sore that I decided an Ibuprofen was in order. It helped a lot. I was almost going to sit, but ended up skating alright for me. Beat Joe and John in a game of SKATE, got front 5-0 shove on the ledge and had fun. Dan manualled all of the ledges. Joe did front lip to front 50 to front board. Take that Lakai! Matt almost did nollie heel noseslide, almost b/s double flip over a median, so much more. Lazer died on a crooks. John did a bunch of no comply boneless variations on the bank. Eric skated the bank too and filmed for awhile. Near the end we had a game of CHODE which is only dork tricks. Basically the funnest thing ever. Then the night was upon us and we bolted for a fun get together at Fuzz’s. The only bummer is it celebrated Neil’s going away. Which means he moved. Which means he wont be the first person to text me ever Saturday. Gonna miss him! Epic times with the Fremont crew, they are some of the greatest people to skate with. Can’t wait to skate with them again soon (I hope).
