skate journal: fun broomfield with cass and a bunch of annoying kids (april 28, 2023)

Had no motivation to skate, but needed to deliver a board in Broomfield. So I went to Broomfield park and was there for about 15 minutes before Cass arrived. I didn’t do much in that time other than a few stalls on the bank to curb. I would get a back pivot and I think front tail which I hadn’t done before. There was a dude who basically lined out a front 5-0 in the deepend of the bowl with a b/s flip down the doubleset. So yeah, I felt very out of place. But the crowd switched over quick and Cass showed so I didn’t feel so bad. I had started trying a warm up line of ollie onto the black ledge, kickflip out of the bank, front tail the bank to curb when a van full of kids showed up. And they sucked! Cass had front noseslide then front shove out of the bank before we started to have everything interrupted by a bunch of kids that didn’t care about anything other than themselves. Crooks were working for me. I was getting up into 50s but not landing them on the black ledge. Cass had some nice front 50s on the new ledge into the bank. I’m not remembering a whole lot more. We ended with a game of SKATE that was a good one for Cass and I. We landed a lot of tricks. Heelflip, halfcab flips, b/s flip, hardflip, fakie bigflip, varial flip, Cass won with fakie varial flip. During the game one of the kids almost ran into me then told me to get out of the way. I about lost it. Told him to STFU. He didn’t care at all. Those kids really sucked. It was a fun session though.
