I had to fight back the urge to focus my board constantly.Next we went to a bank spot that needed to be swept and waxed up.  It was a frustrating session to say the least.  No one was really feeling it.  It was kinda weird because half the crew didn&#8217;t even skate which surprised me.  It&#8217;s a mellow bank, who doesn&#8217;t want to at least give it a try?  The only thing I did was land a couple back 5-0s to fakie that were horrible.Next we went to the infamous boob spot.  So hard to skate.  Fuzz, Lloyd and Neil were killing it immediately.  Melons, stales, anything they wanted.  I was still fighting the urge to focus my board.  I eventually landed a wallride and a smile finally emerged on my face that I couldn&#8217;t hold back.  Wow, I was having fun!  About time.  I failed at several other tricks then went back to the wallride.  Skelly was working on wallies and bet me a beer for whoever landed it first.  I pulled through somehow.  A few tries later and Sean got taken out with a horribly bad rolled ankle.  Ouch.  Lloyd slayed that spot.  Wallie front 180 into the bank.  So sick.  Felt great to skate a full day again even if the first 3\/4 sucked miserably.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.nullozinejr.com\/images\/lloyd-walliefront180.jpg\" alt=\"sickness\" width=\"490\" height=\"653\" \/>Lloyd trick of the day.\u00a0 Wallie front 180.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fuzz, in Crocs.\u00a0 Wow.\u00a0 And yes, it&#8217;s a joke.\u00a0 Hopefully anyway.After a pretty long wait to get the crew together we met at Brighton park with some decent cloud cover.
