Tired and feeling kind of sick from a very late night breakfast burrito after the Jeremy Fish Art Show<\/a> I met up with Neil, Fuzz, Nate and Carleigh and we drove to Longmont where we met Jason and Dave Fuller. \u00a0We met at the little concrete park<\/a> with the hips. \u00a0I love that park. \u00a0But today was not my day and to top it off I had new shoes, wheels and a board. \u00a0I’ve had 3 pairs of the DC Crews in a row so I knew it would be tough. \u00a0But I didn’t think it would be as tough as it was.\"\"These shoes have nowhere near the support the DCs have so it felt like they were in worse shape then my DC’s except that there isn’t a hole in them and they still have tread on the sole. \u00a0Oh well. \u00a0The new wheels weren’t Null wheels either so that was kinda weird. \u00a0They are some sample wheels from ATM. \u00a0Yes, I might switch nullethane. \u00a0Who knows. \u00a0Anyways, I sucked. \u00a0The only good thing I did was my best tailslide ever over the hip. \u00a0Jason was killing it. \u00a0He back feebled the curved ledge so perfect. \u00a0He also had some nice backside ollies over the hip. \u00a0Neil was killing the one foots over the hip, nose mannies and nose bonks. \u00a0Carleigh landed a rare front 5-o and a pop shove real quick over the hip. \u00a0Fuzz did everything. \u00a0Monster ollies over the hip, back 5-o the top of rail coming up the bank, boardslide to manny, bluntslide, fakie ollie over the hip, a ton more and ended it with a front 360 over the hip. \u00a0Dave had some cool hip bluntslide transfer tricks, front boards to fakie on the bump to longer ledge and style for miles. \u00a0Nate was killing it too. \u00a0Feeble the curved ledge, back nosegrind the regular ledge super easy, nose manny lip slide, front lip around the curve to front 5-0, feeble 180 around the curved ledge, manny to front tailslide, and back lip on the reg ledge. Wowsers.After awhile we split out. \u00a0Neil headed back to Boulder while the rest of us headed to Northside. \u00a0My car load stopped at MRKT<\/a> first to sell some boards though. \u00a0Oh I forgot all about mentioning it was two days after 15″ of snow and it was mostly gone right? \u00a0I guess Ft Collins didn’t get nearly as much snow though. \u00a0Jason and Dave were already at Northside as well as Andy, Grant, and some other rad Ft Collins locals. \u00a0They seriously have the best scene. \u00a0Everyone is so positive. \u00a0There weren’t many people there at all and the weather was great. \u00a0So awesome.Jason was skating the banked ledge. \u00a0Back 5-0, back tail, back board and slamming on back board transfers coming the other way. \u00a0He eventually got one. \u00a0Dave was cruising around doing some casual stuff everywhere. \u00a0Nate was on a mission. \u00a0I think he landed everything except a super long and sick front board transfer on the banked ledge. \u00a0Fuzz was on a killing spree, but couldn’t put down the front noseblunt slide on the tall bank. \u00a0So sick. \u00a0Carleigh was doing some good ollies on the flat bank. \u00a0I was skating that park better than normal. \u00a0Not good by any means, but I did some new stuff for me. \u00a0I was trying a run of backside cali mongo push over the china hump, backside flip on the bank and then no comply pole jam. \u00a0Never got the polejam. \u00a0The other new trick for me was a boardslide on the banked ledge. \u00a0The locals were killing it as usual. \u00a0Such a fun scene.Lastly we were gonna head to Fossil Creek, but got a desperate phone call from Chad Dad asking to meet at the Courthouse instead because he was on diaper duty. \u00a0Ha. \u00a0I was completely dead at that point. \u00a0I managed to get Chad to SKAT in SKATE though. \u00a0Two of the trick were front 180 and sw front 180 though. \u00a0Seriously. \u00a0His last trick was switch heel and I hucked it coming surprisingly close. \u00a0I got closer next try, but then never close again. \u00a0Argh. \u00a0The rest of my session was spent watching and doing dumb cali grinds instead of ollieing a gap. \u00a0Fuzz and Nate were murdering it. \u00a0Ollies over rocks, wallies, manuals, gap ollies, everything. \u00a0Carleigh was trying to learn halfcab flips. \u00a0Pretty fun ending on a good day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
