Unheard of for me.  I had a really busy day at work and didn&#8217;t get many chances to stretch, but right after work I drove to Rocky Mtn Elementary to meet Bernie.  The goal was to film him do a 500 trick line, but there was still lots of teachers there so we dorked around down below for awhile.  Warming on on the weird manual pad below is not easy.  Not even for Bernie.  We eventually each got what we were going for though.  Bernie did ollie up the curb, kickflip to fakie on the bank then switch nose manny.  Way harder then it sounds.  I got ollie up the curb, b\/s flip, manual (there may have been a slight scrape, but who cares).Next we went into the hockey rink so I could maybe ollie the little entrance gate that I failed at <a href=\"http:\/\/nullozinejr.com\/zine\/?p=1159\">last time I tried<\/a>. \u00a0Bernie called out flip trick, ollie the gate, flip trick into the long downhill bikepath. \u00a0Naturally after that neither of us could land a flip trick. \u00a0Bernie eventually started getting nollie varial flips then got over the barrier then 360 flip into the downhill. \u00a0I struggled at nollie tres, heelflips and 360 flips before a family showed up to play soccer and I wanted to get out of there so I resorted to halfcab flips. \u00a0A couple in and I somehow managed to land the ollie over the barrier then followed it with a kickflip into the downhill. \u00a0Hyped.We went up to the school since most cars had left and did the marathon run from the two stairs at the top all the way to the downhill bikepath. \u00a0Bernie did some real tricks, but stepped off a couple times. \u00a0I did lame tricks, but managed to stay on the whole way. \u00a0For me it was something like ollie 2 stair, ollie 2 stair, front board pop out (horrible), manual with lots of touches into the dirt downhill, little ollie the bump, front 180 into the downhill. \u00a0So fun. \u00a0We went back up and skated the ledge mostly. \u00a0Bernie was doing kick back tails almost every try and working on tricks over the brick part of the bank to maybe someday do in a line. \u00a0I did a few back crooks and front boards before settling in on front 50 front shove out and trying to land in manual off the curb. \u00a0I was remotely close. \u00a0That would be a good one for me. \u00a0Fun way to start off the weekend.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Had the early shift for work and even managed to get to bed early enough for 8 hours of sleep.
