It shouldn&#8217;t make a difference, but coupled with the new shoes it became apparent on my first noseslide attempt where I ran into the bench that I would be skating like total shit all night.  Ugh.  I got a crappy front nose to fakie, tiny crooks jib and failed and front 50s.  We moved on by bombing a hill that Nate and I used to do all the time.  With my new wheels I did a foot drag once to slow down a little.  Doh.  It was still fun though.  We got booted from the world trade tower right away.  Booted from First Bank pretty quick.  I was skating so bad I didn&#8217;t even ollie the little marble gap.  <\/p>\n<p>Next we ended up at this weird blue ledge \/ bank spot.  Chad did some cool f\/s pivots and stuff on it.  Matt noseslid and crooked it.  I was unable to jib it like Chad due to lack of any coordination on my board.  Matt got a sick front board to fakie into the bank.  Chad taught us fakie bonelesses although I don&#8217;t think I actually rode away from one.  I finally landed a couple tricks with kickflip fakie, b\/s and f\/s flips on the little bank.  We cruised around and after Matt ollied a long five stair while being beamed by security we ended up at Civic.  I was pretty exhausted and unmotivated by then.  I think we all were.  Chad tried to manual the whole thing (photo above) but didn&#8217;t make it.  That was pretty much it.  Good weather, good crew, but man I couldn&#8217;t ride my skateboard and it was depressing.  Especially because my knees didn&#8217;t even hurt much for the first time in awhile.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After a 303 mission Matt and I skated a couple blocks away from the &#8216;only spot in denver&#8217;.
