Met up with Paul after work at Valmont. There was cloud cover and it was nice out and there weren’t many toddlers learning to stand at the skatepark. Paul had done a couple front 50s on the PJ ledge. I warmed up and then for whatever reason we went in on the hip. Paul did some switch 180s, then got some cabs over it, then some switch bigspins. I had posed some cab flips that weren’t very close before doing a few fakie bigflips and a couple b/s flips. We hucked some more, I felt surprisingly close to treflip a couple times, didn’t quite get halfcab flip.

Went over to the plaza. It was seriously so nice out. Didn’t do a whole lot beyond my basics. Oh I guess a nosegrind 180 on the curb that made Paul laugh because he said I didn’t even ollie into it. Skated okay until the dreaded front 50 on the bench which I could not do this time spiraling me into setup madness.

Hip session was great though.
