Started the day off with a bit of flatground in front of the house. And by that I mean just a few ollies and basic tricks. The treflip was filmed a couple days ago.

Then I went to Southern Hills. It was anti-climatic and solo, but whatevs. I was kind of sucking, but forced myself to do some flatground and that cheered me up a bit. I got a heelflip which felt good. It’s been way too long for that trick. And a few crooks which are always way fun.

Then I met Dave, Nolan and eventually Riley, Carleigh and Garrett on campus. We started at the meet up curb where I did a million slappy crooks and a ‘slappy’ front tail shove. Nolan goofed around with quite a few tricks. I think he said he did his first ever fakie back nosegrind. But since he’s young he called it a switch 5-0. Sorry Dave, but I forget what trick you tried a bunch. I did see him get close to some switch tres of flat. That is going to rule.

We moved into campus about 50 feet. Riley had joined us and was trying a weird ollie to narrow ride to gap 50. He never quite got it. We ended up stacking some clips for a bit. I got a dork line of 4 wheel drive a parking block, kickflip up a curb then front 180 down the 3 stair. Nolan did something like drop to bluntslide the parking block, airwalk on flat, then kickflip the 3. Dave no complied the parking block to sidewalk gap. Riley had a line with a boardslide down the 3 stair rail and also a front 180 to fakie manual off the 3 that was nuts.

We've had some pretty intense sessions lately. Here's @siouxer666 @garrettswheelers @nolancormier and homie @gnarlycarleigh skating some lawn trim. #skateboardingisfun

Then we went to the rock spot. A few basics were done on it. I did front tail to fakie, Dave ollied it, Riley did back tail. Garrett and Carleigh joined us. Then I noticed you could gap to grind on the plastic landscape trim and a super fun session ensued. I mean it took me about 50 tries longer then anyone else to “land” a 50, but I did eventually do it. The tricks Nolan and Riley were doing were crazy. Riley was popping his tricks like two feet high just to stick half the time and flip into the grass. It was hilarious. Nolan did a 50 body varial 50 early on that elevated the session and made so much more seem possible. Riley landed a switch flip to grind, switch heel to 50 first try, so much more. Carleigh had several good 50s and then tried kickflip 50 for awhile and got one. So sick. I kind of got a couple early grab grinds, but better yet were the hang ups when I didn’t make the huge one foot gap. Garrett somehow kept his white shirt clean. The no comply 180 to fakie 50 was rad. This was the end of the day. Then we went and had a fun night out in Boulder. 366 days done! I’m looking forward to giving my mind and body some days off of skating.

Went to Saulside/Chicken Bowl/no official name yet on a nice afternoon after working from home. I felt pretty hyped to be skating for my 365th day in a row, but kind of nervous that I would get hurt with one day before the ultimate goal. I started off ok it seemed, but didn’t really do anything that stood out except a baby step up to back 50 over the hip. I’ve never skated with Mark before. He is really fun to watch skate. He does some gnarly stuff, skates fast, has crazy falls. It’s rad. He even shot his board into the neighbors yard. When Saul does the quick grind runs it’s so sick. They are so fast. He tried some frontside moves and got a good back 50 on the gnarlier flat wall coping. Dave was on fire. As you can see in the clip, he attacked the hip. The back 5-0 over the hip was so good as was everything else.

Went in front of the house on a sunny, but cool day. The bigger board felt pretty huge. Warming up went ok actually. I got kickflips, fakie flip, halfcab flip then started working on 360 flips. Then I basically just did 360 flips. Well, tried 360 flips. I landed two of them. One with a hand down, another clean one. I’m saving the clean one for something special. This one is just funny.

Thought of this trick at some point during the day and figured it would be a good no ollie garage thing to try. I had setup an old 8.5″ deck I had (can’t setup new stuff until 2017!). I basically tried it for about 20 minutes and landed a few of them. “halfcab” nose manual shove. At least I had fun.

Went to campus after dinner on a nice night in the upper 40s. I had some new shoes. Yes, stupid me bought some new vulcs since the Es shoes were so dead. I hated them immediately. NB# Pro Courts. I did a few slappy crooks in the meet up lot, then moved into campus and ended up at the long manual pad. It had some snow in spots, but the middle was good. I got manual in a few tries, nose manual in a few more tries. Was trying some other tricks when some janitor came out and said “I see kids going nuts here all of the time and I see you struggling to get up the curb”. Cool. Thanks dude. As if I wasn’t already burnt out and tired enough already. Tried a line of ollie off the ledge, flatground kickflip, then manual. And I didn’t even get it. I went to the banked ledge. Couldn’t even slappy 50 it. Had some fun mini bank rides though. Then I tried to do a few flippers, but couldn’t commit to fakie flip as I was too scared to commit. My side was hurting which is something happens when I skate vulcs. So I focused my board and left.

I wish I had every Monday off work. Relearned crooks to fakie earlier while skating with @fullertrron Then rolled with @skateboard_chicken and the entertaining @color_my_friends_in. #day361

Feeling decent I went to Red Hawk to meet Dave on a decent winter day. Sunny without wind, but not warm. Dave was in the back which I had never even looked at before. There is a bunch of flatground, some weird rocks to ollie over some rad mini hubba that have a dirt runway, etc. I had decided I needed to wear vulcanized shoes again and rocked some old Es Accents. . So it felt really weird for awhile. Dave and I played a game of SKATE that lasted a long time. Dave landed on two switch flips, but didn’t ride away. That would have been so awesome. I forget what else we did or even who one. Even though I wasn’t skating all that well I was still having fun. It was kind of mind blowing how much better the board feel is with vulcs.

Then we went to the front with the ledges. Oh yeah, Dave was riding an 8″ setup. It was funny seeing him on a smaller board. It seemed like he was having problems locking in to tricks, but he wouldn’t blame his setup at all. He did get a really good front 50 back 180 out, noseslides, and ended with a really good front 50 front shove out. I didn’t have my normal struggles of getting up onto the ledge frontside, but I took awhile to lock into 50s and grind them. I posed some slow front crooks, got a really slow back 50, and a few crooks that were really fun. Dave left and I tried crooks to fakie for awhile until I got a couple. I also did switch crooks going back and never got a good one, but had a couple little jibs.

Then I went to Saul’s and joined Saul and Eric. They were both ripping already. Saul’s lines get faster everytime I see him skate. Eric was landing back d’s and staying on more of his back 50s. I struggled keeping my speed for awhile then just kind of did what I’ve done there before. It’s always so fun though. Pool coping is fun to grind. Eric had some funny falls, all of which I seemed to capture on film.

For day 360 in a row I really wanted to do a 360 flip. But the wind kicked in something fierce and I ended up having no time. So I just went into the garage and did a few no ollie manual tricks on the sheet of wood.

Went in front of the house on a nice morning. Pushed, did a few slides, nollie shoves and ride on grinds at the curb across the street.

Man. I met Dave at dog park. I first few pushes hurt, my first few ollies even more. My knees were absolutely killing me. I probably should not have skated, but it was super nice out and Dave drove all the way in to skate. Dave rode my putter for awhile as he’s determined to land a 360 flip (switch). Dave was in a lot of pain too. For a brief period I was getting into a little groove where I could actually do kickflips, fakie flips, 180s and pose other tricks. I literally did not land anything beyond that. I came somewhat close to switch flip. Tried a bunch of switch front heel. But for the most part again I just thought about how I can take some days off of skating soon. Dave tried a lot of switch tres (he still thinks it would be easier switch), skated my 3 iron and got a solid heelflip. That heelflip would stand as the most tech trick of the day. We both stopped with plenty of sunlight left. That’s when you know we were in a lot of pain.

Went to Louisville after a pretty long work day and some other stuff with Jason and then dinner. The park was empty and I had to turn on the lights. The temp was in the upper 20s with an extra chill to the air. I hadn’t really skated in awhile and I was not looking forward to the warm up process. I also may have finally hit the burn out stage of skating every day. I just think about how in 10 days I can take some time off from skating. Not a good thing to think about when your cold and skating by yourself. I did get a little juice though. Tried a few lines. First was noseslide on the ledge, roll down the bank to frontside ollie the hip then noseslide the bank to ledge. Got that. Then crook, ollie, nose jib to fakie. Terrible back 50, ollie kickflip on the bank. Tried halfcab noseslide, ollie, back 50 on the bank to ledge, but couldn’t get the back 50. Going the other way I struggled incredibly with front 50s. My legs got sore. I posed a few flippers here and there, but I ended up leaving.
