Went to Broomfield on a Sunday around noon after a morning filled with chores. It was quite warm and sunny. Rob and I would get there way before Garrett and way way there before Jack. The scene was a weird mixture of people and mostly annoying. But we skated. Oh yeah David was there, he is rad and was ripping doing switch back 180 nosegrind. I saw Rob manual around, shove lipslide, crooks, steezy front noseslides, halfcab noseslides, front tails the bank to curb. I had a new board that I was super excited about. 8.5 with shorter than normal wheelbase for Null – 14.25. It felt good. I would skate okay. I would get like 5 noseslide 270 shoves, 2 of which were pretty good, the others were garbage. Still felt cool. Couldn’t get a fakie bigflip out of the bank, got pretty sore and didn’t ollie much. Had a fun switch noseslide line of backside on the black ledge then frontside on the bump to ledge. Garrett had some great back tails into the bank, treflips into the bank, back 180 nosegrinds, switch crooks, struggled with nollie heels. Jack showed as I was pretty beat and did his wallie noseslide after some funny brick qp bails then broke his board on the hurricane.

After walking the neighbors dog I went to dog park to meet up with Rob, Cass, Bratcher, Jesse and the rest of the Saturday crew. It took me a while to get into the groove of things as my legs weren’t great and it was pretty crowded with rippers. Kind of avoided the main lane for a while as it was crowded. Didn’t see others do a whole lot either. Jesse beat me to a line of boardslide the narrow bench, front 180 off the kicker, fakie flip. He would go on to get a first try line of front 50 the narrow bench, pop shove tail grab the kicker, b/s flip on flat. I would get crooks then front shove off it and crooks then kickflip and followed one up with a mighty bad treflip. that still make me happy. Cass kickflipped off it and had a really sick back bigspin. I think I saw Rob front board the tall narrow bench, crooks the bench, manuals, back 50s, nose manual, fakie 50 halfcab out and I think fakie nosegrind 180. I was the last one standing and the main lane had mellowed out a little so I did a few crooks and noseslides and forced myself to get up on the bench with one mighty slow accidental 5-0.
