Candles had been burned for a memorial for Dylan Janvrin<\/a> a couple days ago and there was wax all over the park. It was my first time skating there since hearing about the tragedy and there was a bit of an eery feeling in the air even though I didn’t know him. It was really cold out and slippery. \u00a0Maybe even more slippery than Denver park in spots. \u00a0I didn’t feel like being cold and layering so I just wore a winter jacket. \u00a0That ended up working out pretty nice.Anyways, Jake and I met up with Nate, Fuzz and several of the Crisis locs. Fuzz and Jake started out at the tight vert qp in the back of the park. I didn’t want in on that to start so went into the main street area and Nate rolled up right away. We started with the ol’ “10 tricks on the blue ledge” to get warmed up. Second try I went for a front board and slammed so hard due to the wax everywhere. Ouch. Nate was ripping. His warm up tricks are my enders. Nosegrinds first try. Nosegrind shoves, back 5-0 front shove, front 5-0 back 180 out, back lip, etc. Ok you got me, those aren’t even my enders, they are fantasies. Ha. I got quite a pretty quick like front 50 back 180 out, halfcab board, hc noseslide, hc crooks, slappy front tail, front 50 to front lip and a few more that I had to look to Nate to see if they counted. \u00a0I also got a fakie pivot to fakie on the quarta potty.Jake and Fuzz joined us as well as the Crisis kids. \u00a0Some neat tricks went down. \u00a0Fuzz got all Brian on me and said “If I land this will you blog about it?” then went on perform the funniest slam of the night. \u00a0Fakie front 50 front cab out attempt to chest dive scorpion slide. \u00a0Sick Fuzz! \u00a0He did go on to rip though. \u00a0Front blunts on the quarta potty, powerslides across the blue box, back 5-0 to back tail and I’m sure a lot more. \u00a0Jake was going for the elusive back blunt on the quarta potty. \u00a0I kinda cruised around the park since the blue ledge was so crowded. \u00a0I don’t think I’ve complained about the non-superthane wheels I have enough. \u00a0They suck! \u00a0Well, they do have good pop and feel like a classic spitfire or something, but they are slow, flat spotted and it’s a bummer how much I can tell the difference between 52mm and 53mm. \u00a0I could lay into one slide I’m sure and finish those wheels off already.Back to skating. \u00a0I tried a line of kickflip, front 50 the pier 7 like ledge, manual the black ledge. \u00a0None of it came easy and I never linked all three. \u00a0Jake and I ollied the six. \u00a0I kept getting wheelbite due to that extra 1 mm of wheel (Yes I’m joking) and posed the double set a few time. \u00a0Fuzz tried to hype me up saying he’d throw down a free Crisis hoodie if I landed it. \u00a0Wow! \u00a0I still bailed though. \u00a0Ugh. \u00a0Oh yeah, I had a new board finally. \u00a0It had mad snap so I had absolutely no excuse other than it was really cold out, my wheels are flat spotted pretty bad and I am still Glen. \u00a0Nate and Jake posed it a couple times too, but none of us put it down. \u00a0Nate and Fuzz split out as did most everyone.Jake and I finished with a quarta potty session where the back blunt continued to elude him, but he got several pivots to fakie. \u00a0I did a front disaster to fakie and Jake told me to try sugarcane. \u00a0I never got a legit sugarcane, but I did do front disaster then turn it over to back smith. \u00a0So stoked! \u00a0Then I did it fakie. \u00a0Fakie rock to back smith and eventually pulled it to fakie as well. \u00a0Fun night of skating. \u00a0We followed it by going to a little art show in Boulder then the Downer for a couple beers. \u00a0Totally a fun night even if I feel like crap now. \u00a0Not from the beers, but from so much time in the cold. \u00a0Is it spring yet?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
