Incredibly nice morning. Cass and I went to Boulder park to get some skating in before the Nightmare at Northside jam up in Fort Collins. I was very sore to get started. Wore some old 440 highs that felt better than the TJ’s, but I didn’t really like them much. I would struggle, take several tries to do tricks I had done a few days ago. Although I was happy to do first try front disaster and do a few of that slid a little. I couldn’t get a kickflip on the mellow bank after though and it was driving me nuts. I wanted to do front 50 shove on the bench, but one time I locked into 5-0 and went for the shove and got it. It was the highlight of the session for me. I got remotely close to b/s flip over the hip like Cass, except without as much pop. Cass ripped it, lots of 50s on the ledges. Front shove to fakie over the hip was rad even if he didn’t land it perfect. B/s flip was sick.

Up in FOCO I didn’t skate much. A noseslide and some nollie tails. Garrett and Noè killed it. Clip soon.
