skate journal: fun triple nipple with a tough ending (may 3, 2025)
Posted in Skate Journal on May 4th, 2025 by corpoAfter a couple days of feeling sick Bratcher picked me up and we rolled to little Arvada aka Triple Nipple to meet several others. Salty, Gordon, Kevin, and some others were there. That park is awesome, but that ledge is taller than I remember. A lot went on. I’ll start with Salty. Got his grind revert on the top qp. Then put together an amazing line of grind revert then halfcab boardslide transfer the spine. Gordon next. Pop shove up the ledge, front tails the ledge, nose manuals, axle stall to rock transfer the spine, classic ripping. Bratcher had some rad no complys on the hump, spine transfers, long backside grinds, lots of tricks. Kevin was shredding. Big backside ollies over the hip. Switch transfer the spine. I filmed him get an amazing line of the Gish (switch nosegrind 180), front 5-0 the qp, front blunt the ledge, Janoski flip on flat, fakie flip. Switch crooks was hot too. I felt better than expected after being sick. Had some crooks, (poorly) got noseslide 270 shove, front 180 the euro, switch noseslides, some other stuff. Could not get a front 50 on the ledge and lost my mind, focused my board. Doh. Fun session other than that though.
