Jake&#8217;s back was hurting so we mostly just skated the micro halfpipe.  Jake did his front and back blunts, switch blunt, almost sugarcane and more I&#8217;m forgetting.  Cass and I had similar front 50s.  He had some front 5-0s, tail.  I had some disasters and the little revert tricks.  It&#8217;s a really fun area.  Did a couple of noseslides on the ledge.  It&#8217;s funny to me how the switch front nose still gets love from others.  Got a crooks that didn&#8217;t come easy.  Cass may have gotten kickflip up the hip or b\/s flip the hip.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then we went to Merrill school which I hadn&#8217;t been to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/zine\/2020\/08\/18\/skate-journal-denver-streets-in-the-heat-with-cass-dave-jack-and-simon-aug-15-2020\/\">in a few years<\/a>.  The asphalt has taken a beating, but it was still run.  Initially I was really sore and lacking confidence and didn&#8217;t think I would do anything.  Cass got a good kickflip over the hip and I eventually got a really slow kickflip that didn&#8217;t go over the mound.  Cass then did a really good hardflip which we are saving.  I setup the cam for my b\/s flip and tried to add fakie bigflip but didn&#8217;t really get it.  Cass came really close to treflip.  Then I started lining it out and it was really fun.  The line is just a few basic tricks, but after not being able to really try tricks the last couple of months it felt so great to try hard and link a few tricks.  Really fun session.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">(setup 9\/10 generator 8.5\/14.25, jessup ultragrip, thunder team hollow 149 royal bushings, 52mm bones stf v1 103a, vans wayvee white size 12 spenco 3\/4 thinsole orthotic and 272 insoles)<br>(pain level 4\/10 started slow from all the ollies the day before but really it feels amazing to try real tricks again)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After a cold morning doing PT I met up with Cass and Jake at a crowded Cushing skatepark.
