Had forgot all about the silver session until Jesse texted me about it so I went. I again didn’t have much energy and it showed quickly. I couldn’t ollie, flip my board, put in any effort. I wanted to at least try some backside sugarcanes but it turns out that back disasters would be hard enough on the tiny qp. Jess would land his first back d’s. Raul did it first try. I came really close to b/s flip the hip, but never got both feet on. Had some good bump to noseslides and crook. Jake and Nick shredded how they do. Nick’s rock ‘n roll powerslides are awesome. Jesse and I ended with a game of SKATE that he won, but it was finally close as I had him to SKAT. But he got a letter on pop shove! Ha ha. I was made to take several tries to get a halfcab flip and lose it on a fakie bigflip that I would get a few tries alter.

Such a nice afternoon, so little motivation but ended up at dog park with Sean and Paul. I thought I’d feed off the good weather and I actually had some motivation once things got going, but I literally landed nothing and completely hated my setup. It was a lose lose situation and the only positive I can take away from the session is that slappy crooks are really fun. Sean was kind of in a blah mood too. Paul shredding as usual.

Nice warm morning, lots of older people at dog park. Crew was Jake, Cass, Rob, Sean then eventually Garrett and Joe. I had changed to 8.25 deck. I really liked it. The key word being “liked”. I don’t remember much about this session prior to a game of SKATE with Cass, Sean, Jake. I got a letter on Sean with a treflip which made me happy. But that was the only letter I got on Sean and he would win. I outlasted the older 30 somethings though. I would also get several front 50s on the black ledge and an ultra rare manual the blue pad. Saw Rob do shove lipslide, nollie lipslide, front 50, nose manual, back 50 back 180 blue ledge. Cass front noseslides, front tails, chilling. Jake had front tails and mostly skated the bowl. Sean did Sean things. The long 5-0 down the new bank to ledge so casual blew me away. Garrett and Cass looked good on their boards too. AFter that we drove all over Lakewood and didn’t skate anything.
