skate journal: sheridan diy with an awesome crew (dec 16, 2023)

On a nice morning I met up with Bratcher and crew and then quite a few Nullers too. And then a lot of others as well. It was pretty awesome actually, except that I wasn’t feeling so hot on my board. Cass went in on front boards quick and did the shove out in a few tries. He would do it to fakie too before slamming his but onto the edge of a parking block later one. Jack and Salty skated the small qp and had some fun. I slammed pretty hard trying to ollie up the curb. It was a depressing slam that took a lot out of me. Hayden and Peyton were killing it. Peyton made the obstacles all seem so small and easy. Fast plant on the top of the weird banked qp? Yep. Hayden had slappy crooks off the qp to curb, ollied into boardslide, manual boardslide fakie manual. Garrett’s kickflips over the bench were so easy and the stylee nose manual bonks the little a-frame. I did have fun with the tiny little grind to layback front rock and some front slashes. The legend Jeff Hulslegend showed, kinda chilled and did a lot of flippers first try. His friend Kyle was shredding as were several others that showed up. It was a fun session even though I didn’t skate very well.
