Met John and Nate at the Circuit City garage. \u00a0John and I started things off by slamming our car doors really loud because it makes a cool echo. \u00a0Then we noticed we woke up some bums in the corner. \u00a0Doh. \u00a0We took Ledgey out of the car and skated anyways. \u00a0We were in the warm up stages when they came over to watch us. \u00a0They weren’t bummed (ha). \u00a0Instead they were hyped on us and kept cheering for us and putting cans and bottles in our path for us to ollie over. \u00a0I was hyped they weren’t jerks, but it definitely took away from the session.John was skating for the first time in awhile after hurting his ankle on Thanksgiving Day. \u00a0That didn’t stop him from getting on some quick front 50s, no comply 270 back tail, learning boardslides on the ledge (he’s one of those dudes that can only boardslide 20 stair rails) etc. \u00a0Nate was Nate and did like 10 tricks right away. \u00a0Nosegrinds, smith grinds, 5-0s, etc. \u00a0Piece of cake for him. \u00a0I finally got a front smith on Ledgy. \u00a0I got a few more basics before hucking some new tricks. \u00a0Switch front 180 to 5-0 and halfcab back crooks. \u00a0I got kinda close to both, but slammed really hard on a sw 180 5-0. Kinda drained me and with the bums there and Liz wanting me back early that kinda ended it for me.Of course a game of SKATE had to go down first. \u00a0 Nate was out in four tricks. \u00a0Kickflip, fakie flip, fakie front shove and fakie back shove. \u00a0He double or nothing’d the fakie flip. \u00a0So funny. \u00a0Nate can do nollie tres and nollie back big heels everytime and he was out on four total basic tricks. \u00a0Ha. \u00a0John and I went on for awhile and I ended up winning. \u00a0I got letters on fakie bigspins both ways and a treflip. \u00a0I’m not sure what all John got letters on, but I know the last two were fakie varial flip and heelflip. \u00a0Ha.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
