Slept in later than expected. But went and met Gordon at dog park. Jesse would show later as would Hayden. It was kind of a weird scene at times with parents sitting on the ledge totally clueless and not even understanding when we asked them to move. Gordon was ripping. I was pretty sore, but would get going and skate alright. I had like 3 kickflips onto the pad and was almost able to try kickflip off. Gordon had kickflips up too and couldn’t get the one off either. I was also 2-2 on front 50s on the cement bench and almost got another with a shove out. On the lurb I had a few tricks like front 50 shove, joe hamilton, front 50 back 180. Some of the Converse dudes came and skated before the 303 Hill contest. Chris Athans was rad to watch, he had some sick moves like first try impossible over the bump to bar, casual front shove over the bump to bar, frontside flip from flat into the metal grate. Townley treflip over the bump to bar and long front blunts were cool. Jesse, Gordon and I played SKATE. I was first out, but it was kind of a bunch of random tricks I wouldn’t really expect to land. It was a fun session. Oh yeah, Hayden came at the end and did his casual manuals and almost noseslide 270 shove.
