skate journal: broomfield struggles with garrett, will, justin (april 28, 2026)
Posted in Skate Journal on May 1st, 2026 by corpoWent to Broomfield on a nice night that got cooler near the end and completely struggled and my foot pain was bad. Garrett got there around the same time. He also struggled. There was something in the air I guess. Was hyped that filmer Chris showed up, he was fun to skate with. It’s been a few days since the session so I forget a lot. Garrett spent a while trying his normal warm up line of back tail into the bank, back 180 nosegrind, kickflip back tail but never got all 3 in the line. He did get a fakie shove nosegrind before focusing his board on a crooks gone wrong. I somehow had no pop, ability to do flip tricks, anything. I manged a front 50 on the black box. I did some noseslides and crooks. I did a new line of crooks to fakie on the black box, then a little sw nose jib on the bankd to ledge. So it wasn’t a total loss of a session at least. Will was once again quick on the ledges. The Justin demo was extra good.
