skate journal: denver warehouse diy with cass (june 28, 2025)

Posted in Skate Journal on June 29th, 2025 by corpo

On a very hot day I swooped up Cass and we went to the shady warehouse. There was one other dude skating when we got there, but he left pretty quickly. Cass and I played a warm up game of SKATE that lasted forever and I didn’t land anything decent other than halfcab flip. Cass made the comeback and got a hardflip and I forget what he won it on. Then we skated some. Oh yeah, I had skated an 8.25 with Slappy lows and really didn’t like it so went back to the 8.3 with Aces. We did some noseslides and crooks, but that was about it. Cass’ crook was super good. I took forever to get a front 50 at the end. We didn’t skate too long, but it was good for me to take it easy anyway after being sick.

Heading into the weekend I was starting to feel better and wanted to skate some. I just wanted to skate a nice mellow qp by myself and Superior fit the bill. I had a 8.3 with Aces and it skated good until I tried tricks beyond kickflip. I started really slow and was super out of it. Would get some basic lines on the qp then ledge. I think eventually I did a line of kickflip out of the bank, front d on the qp, crooks the ledge. I couldn’t axle stall the weird tight qp. Then I went in on treflip. Like 50 of them. Never got my feet on one. I somehow didn’t get mad.

Trying to feel better I went over to the school shortly before sunset. I think I did a line of switch 180 the manhole, slappy crook, kickflip on flat. Maybe something else, but it was memorable.

(setup I think it was 8.25 with ace and it was pretty meh)
