Carleigh and I were both in kinda down moods. We both had our reasons and weren’t sure how skating would go. We went to the new bikepath ledge on 30th that is a downhill backside ledge for regular footers (me) and frontside for people that skate the wrong way (Carleigh). Before we skated the ledge I posed some ollies over a little gap that Carleigh did first try. Ok, so the gap wasn’t tiny, you had to go over a curb and it was probably the height of a 5 stair from the top. So yeah, after Carleigh dropped that first t we went and posed at the ledge until we got confidence to lock into tricks. We got 50s about the same time. Then Carleigh was going for 50 shove and I was going for a run of back 50, backnoseslide the tall ledge (which is under the gap that Carleigh already ollied) then I would walk up the ledge and go setup to try and ollie the gap. Carleigh got front 50 shove way before I got my line and it was bolts! I committed to the gap quite a few times and would slam pretty hard. Initially it was fun, but then it got old. I eventually gave up on the line, bailed the gap, got mad, then did it. It was way too small of a gap to take that much time on. Oh well. We played around at a gap above in the car dealership and Carleigh ollied the big part of it. 2 flat 1 with about 5 feet of flat. Sickness. Glad we skated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
