John, Jason, Carleigh, Neil and Brian met at my house. \u00a0Fuzz and Lazer would meet shortly. \u00a0First spot was the ol’ bird bank in the tech center. \u00a0Things got started in typical fashion. \u00a0Neil pulling something out to ollie over and amazing everyone with how easy it is for him. \u00a0Brian building a wallride. \u00a0Carleigh skating hard and falling a lot. \u00a0Me feeling like I stepped on a skateboard for the first time in months. \u00a0Etc. \u00a0It was a good start though, everyone was skating pretty hard and making due with a mediocre spot. \u00a0John had a line with something like treflip on flat, ollie the Neil thing, back tail on the bank. \u00a0He wanted shove though. \u00a0Carleigh was ollieing a little crack gap then trying kickflip then f\/s ollie on the bank. \u00a0Neil was doing kickflip then ollie his ollie contraption, no complies on the bank. \u00a0Brian was trying some crazy rock fakie wallrides. \u00a0I did a line that felt good for how early in the session it was. \u00a0Kickflip a little crack gap, ollie Neil’s contraption, b\/s flip on the bank. \u00a0The b\/s flip felt good because I didn’t pivot it at all for once. \u00a0I’m sure I made up for the lack of a pivot by not popping it. \u00a0John, Jason and I got into a fakie flat bank session while others were doing some wallrides on wood leaned against a dumpster. \u00a0Fakie ollies were hard then John and I started going for fakie front shove (John) and fakie flip (me) while Jason tried halfcabs and then full cabs. \u00a0Jason got all of his first and I eventually got the fakie flip, but it took forever. \u00a0I sat down to rest for a minute and thought we were leaving, but instead it was time to film Brian. \u00a0For some reason I complained a bunch about this and got in a sour mood over basically nothing. \u00a0It lasted the rest of the day though.\"\"Brian was trying frontside grinds on this and got one. \u00a0It was ridiculous. \u00a0Jason did some super sick powerslides on it too. \u00a0Fuzz and Brian also did boardslides to fakie, John and Fuzz joined Jason on the powerslides as well. \u00a0After this was break time. \u00a0Drinks, food, a visit to the Lafeyette park that’s under construction and a general feeling of crankiness and no motivation.We went to a nearby bump\/hip spot that is really fun. \u00a0Fuzz, Neil, Jason, Lazer had some great ollies quickly. \u00a0Carleigh and I seemed to have lots of problems getting used to the spot. \u00a0Which is a bummer after how much fun and how well I skated it last time<\/a> I was there. \u00a0Fuzz and Neil did some wallrides on a brick wall that looked really good. \u00a0Brian layed down to sleep right away and pretty quickly Lazer, Fuzz and Neil joined him for some beers. \u00a0It was just Carleigh, Jason and I skating. \u00a0Me sucking and Carleigh seeming very frustrated. \u00a0After awhile Jason slammed hard pushing and retired to his car. \u00a0Carleigh and I skated awhile longer. \u00a0I had finally gotten a couple good ollies landing in the downhill and didn’t feel like bailing kickflips so I started trying slow b\/s bigflips which I’ve never done on a hip that I know of, and definitely never done a good one on flat. \u00a0It took awhile, but I eventually landed a really bad one rolling away at slightly over 45 degrees. \u00a0Sweet. \u00a0Carleigh had landed a couple good pop shoves and started trying kickflips. \u00a0They were supposed to be hard since she basically had it first try. \u00a0But .. it was not Carleighs day. \u00a0And after several tries I got out the camera to snap some photos thinking it would come soon\"\"Arsty bailed kickflip shot\"\"So bummed.\"\"Not even a goofy TF squad could cheer Carleigh up. \u00a0Especially when Neil pulled the ulimate dick move and said he’d do it first try to show Carleigh how easy it is. \u00a0It amazes me how clueless Neil can be sometimes. \u00a0I kept messing around with photos and eventually took my new favorite photo with the new camera:\"\"<\/a>After Neil spoke up Carleigh quit for the day. \u00a0Some goofing around happend for awhile before we farted and went to dinner at the TF staple – 3 Margaritas. \u00a0It was a good meal with the highlight being the wait staff singing happy birthday to Carleigh and slamming whipped cream in her face. \u00a0Awesome.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
