skate journal: buena vista high ledges (nov 7, 2026)

Another nice day up in BV. I had no desire to skate the park again, but I had time to skate. So I went to look at the high school I had never seen before. To my surprise there was a decent tall ledge and then a couple drops. The ledge had a couple of forensics on it, but didn’t really look skated. Was able to get into noseslides pretty quickly. Thought that might be my end game, but crooks came in a few tries too. What a great view. Then I had fun messing around with the silly line. Half cab flip, board stall transfer up, ride on back 50. I’m sure it doesn’t look like much, but I really love skating new spots and finding ways to line things out. Then I went to a more visible area that had teachers walking by. They didn’t seem to mind me. I took a while to ride off the first ledge because of a weird expansion crack. Got front 180 off then went for front shove. Front shove took a while and I was about to give up, but I ended up getting one. And it was fun and a great way to end the session.
