skate journal: LES skatepark and tompkins with Max (sept 18, 2025)
Met Max at LES. Was so cool meeting a friend. The park was empty. Max was ripping already. His goofy tricks are so cool. First thing we did together was the double backside flips. Which took me too long but at least max got it too. I bailed multiple axle stalls. It was so frustrating. Then max had me go in on the long line basically doing all my tricks in one line. The Wallride was fun, the crooks were fun, but man I could not do another backside flip to save my life. Max ollied the rail like 15 times.
We went to labor. Visited with Will. Went to Tompkins. Reynolds was there, but I didn’t see him skate. Max played SKATE with a friend. He did some other stuff. I just cruised and did some basics. Aka I skated like normal. Had a fakie bigflip and a sw noseslide bigspin. It was a fun vibe for sure. Great day and great seeing Max.
