Brian, Neil, Rob, Greg, Jam and I headed up to the Fort to hit Northside and check out the contest. \u00a0It was crowded which it should be. \u00a0I didn’t even skate the park between runs like others did. \u00a0I basically only skated flatground which was fun. \u00a0There was a bunch of games of SKATE with Skelly and John too. \u00a0All were fun. \u00a0I hardly ever land anything. \u00a0Rob and I skated the little slanted ledge near the park. \u00a0It was really dry, but we still had a blast. \u00a0I got into a couple hurricanes, but didn’t commit to a land. \u00a0Tried front smiths and back feebles, but since it didn’t grind I never landed them. \u00a0Tried a bunch of tailslides but only got up on the top good a couple times. \u00a0Next up we went to the new pool which was also crowded. \u00a0It looks really fun, but the numbers were too much for me. \u00a0Rob and I just skated flatground and a plastic parking block which ended up being really fun. \u00a0Rob was doing really sick ‘slappy smith lapovers” and grinding really far. \u00a0I started trying it and managed to land one or two. \u00a0Fun. \u00a0Next up was a game of SKATE with John and Andy from MRKT. \u00a0What a fun game. \u00a0John has 360 flips every try and Andy was close to full cab flips. \u00a0I somehow won. \u00a0I think the tricks I landed were pop shove, kickflip, halfcab flip, fakie flip, 360 flip, fakie varial flip, frontside halfcab flip amd maybe something else. \u00a0I had T. \u00a0Even though I mostly skated flat all day it was a super fun day. \u00a0Ok wait, who am I kidding, skating flat all day is why the day was so fun. \u00a0Ha!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
