Argh. We posed some noseslides over another ledge over a flat gap.\u00a0 I was sore and hungry so we just sat and I had my smoothie.\u00a0 After a drive to a cool ledge spot where we got the boot immediately we ended up at Cody Elementary.\u00a0 It looks like such an amazing spot, asphalt banks, a hip, some rails and picnic tables.\u00a0 Cass chilled initially, I hucked a bit to get warmed up then got a backside flip over the hip. I hucked nollie tres for awhile, frontside halfcab flips, 360 kickflips, nothing was working.\u00a0 Cass got going, did some 180s, kickflips and a super good hardflip.\u00a0 jack had joined and started a little slow, but did some really amazing tricks.\u00a0 Hardflip, Rick flip, 50 180s over the hip, hippy jump the rail, kickflip fakie nosegrinds on the weird bank to hubba.\u00a0 Actually so many chill tricks just messing around that are quite mind blowing.\u00a0 Dave showed up, but didn&#8217;t wear his sun blocking old man hat.\u00a0 His warm ups were cool, bigspins\u00a0over the hip, grinds up the bank hubba.\u00a0 He did a line of 50 up it to 270 off then front nose to fakie over the hip.\u00a0 \u00a0I went to get my camera to film it, but by the time I got back and setup Jack had filmed it.\u00a0 Sweet.\u00a0 Dave would also 50 the ledge.\u00a0 Simon mostly chilled, but did some casual slaying.\u00a0 He does the basics so well.\u00a0 I had done a couple line attempts.\u00a0 Kickflip to fakie on a bank then fakie big over the hip, but couldn&#8217;t get the fakie big.\u00a0 Got a no comply bigspin then backside flip.\u00a0 Then I went in on nollie tres.\u00a0 Over and over, sometimes I would get close, even put my feet on some, but nope.\u00a0 Denied.\u00a0 Ugh.\u00a0 After that we went to a nearby bank to curb that was really hard to skate.\u00a0 I did some slappy crooks, switch front noseslide and barely worked up to boardslides.\u00a0 Jack took a branch to the ear than chilled.\u00a0 Simon had some steezy blunts.\u00a0 Dave killed it.\u00a0 Front disaster, front rock, front hurricane and then a super crazy windshield wiper.\u00a0 What a cool trick.\u00a0 Fun day.\u00a0 I would like to have landed a\u00a0nollie tre, but oh well.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">(setup 8.25 null archway deck, jessup ultragrip, venture 5.2 custom hollow AWAKE lows, bones hard bushings, 51mm spitfire 101a F4 classic shape, 3 washers inside each axle, new balance numeric 288s grey\/blue size 11.5, no insoles)<br>(pain level 3\/10)\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On a hot morning I met Cass at the 12th &amp; Osage park.\u00a0 We started on the quarterpipes.\u00a0 It took me a bit to get used to the little diamond cut coping, but it ended up being quite fun.\u00a0 We both did a few things, but moved over to the ledge when we got warmed [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[38],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12726","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-skate-journal"],"wppr_data":{"cwp_meta_box_check":"No"},"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p1j9K4-3jg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12726","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12726"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12726\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12727,"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12726\/revisions\/12727"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12726"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12726"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12726"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
