I went to Fort Collins to sell boards at MRKT.  On the way I stopped at Fossil Creek.  It was a weird scene.  Normally no one is there.  But this time there were scooter kids, parents, Zumiez kids and a couple dudes that seem down.  I started off horribly.  Not even being able to pop at all.  It was brutal.  But after a few minutes I was able to back 50 the curb then crooks the ledge.  That is one of my favorite ledges to crook ever.  I had some front 50s on the lower part of the ledge, then on the taller part.  Even had a couple back 50s on the tall part and got into a few kick back 50s.  In the end the scene bummed me out too much.   Too many kids with headphones throwing a fit when they didn&#8217;t land their front 50.  <\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-version=\"4\" style=\" background:#FFF; border:0; border-radius:3px; box-shadow:0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width:658px; padding:0; width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);\">\n<div style=\"padding:8px;\">\n<div style=\" background:#F8F8F8; line-height:0; margin-top:40px; padding:50% 0; text-align:center; width:100%;\">\n<div style=\" background:url(data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAACwAAAAsCAMAAAApWqozAAAAGFBMVEUiIiI9PT0eHh4gIB4hIBkcHBwcHBwcHBydr+JQAAAACHRSTlMABA4YHyQsM5jtaMwAAADfSURBVDjL7ZVBEgMhCAQBAf\/\/42xcNbpAqakcM0ftUmFAAIBE81IqBJdS3lS6zs3bIpB9WED3YYXFPmHRfT8sgyrCP1x8uEUxLMzNWElFOYCV6mHWWwMzdPEKHlhLw7NWJqkHc4uIZphavDzA2JPzUDsBZziNae2S6owH8xPmX8G7zzgKEOPUoYHvGz1TBCxMkd3kwNVbU0gKHkx+iZILf77IofhrY1nYFnB\/lQPb79drWOyJVa\/DAvg9B\/rLB4cC+Nqgdz\/TvBbBnr6GBReqn\/nRmDgaQEej7WhonozjF+Y2I\/fZou\/qAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC); display:block; height:44px; margin:0 auto -44px; position:relative; top:-22px; width:44px;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\" color:#c9c8cd; font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; line-height:17px; margin-bottom:0; margin-top:8px; overflow:hidden; padding:8px 0 7px; text-align:center; text-overflow:ellipsis; white-space:nowrap;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/p\/0eXGmbihFq\/\" style=\" color:#c9c8cd; font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; font-style:normal; font-weight:normal; line-height:17px; text-decoration:none;\" target=\"_top\">A video posted by glen gillinghammer (@corpoglenny)<\/a> on <time style=\" font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; line-height:17px;\" datetime=\"2015-03-21T03:18:37+00:00\">Mar 20, 2015 at 8:18pm PDT<\/time><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async defer src=\"\/\/platform.instagram.com\/en_US\/embeds.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>I met up with Mike and his buddy Chris at MRKT.  Then we went to Northside.  It was crazy busy, but ended up mellowing out after awhile.  I hid in the corner and did the kickflip bank ride thing above.  Pretty hyped on that.  Mike and Chris were killing it.  Mike has a very unique style and bag and it&#8217;s rad to watch.  After awhile Mike and I tried no comply tailslides on the China bank and ended up getting them back to back.  His was over the ledge and legit.  Mine had a grab and I kind of pansy footed it.  Oh well I did the dropin to quick ledge ride so that was cool.  <\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-version=\"4\" style=\" background:#FFF; border:0; border-radius:3px; box-shadow:0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width:658px; padding:0; width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);\">\n<div style=\"padding:8px;\">\n<div style=\" background:#F8F8F8; line-height:0; margin-top:40px; padding:50% 0; text-align:center; width:100%;\">\n<div style=\" background:url(data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAACwAAAAsCAMAAAApWqozAAAAGFBMVEUiIiI9PT0eHh4gIB4hIBkcHBwcHBwcHBydr+JQAAAACHRSTlMABA4YHyQsM5jtaMwAAADfSURBVDjL7ZVBEgMhCAQBAf\/\/42xcNbpAqakcM0ftUmFAAIBE81IqBJdS3lS6zs3bIpB9WED3YYXFPmHRfT8sgyrCP1x8uEUxLMzNWElFOYCV6mHWWwMzdPEKHlhLw7NWJqkHc4uIZphavDzA2JPzUDsBZziNae2S6owH8xPmX8G7zzgKEOPUoYHvGz1TBCxMkd3kwNVbU0gKHkx+iZILf77IofhrY1nYFnB\/lQPb79drWOyJVa\/DAvg9B\/rLB4cC+Nqgdz\/TvBbBnr6GBReqn\/nRmDgaQEej7WhonozjF+Y2I\/fZou\/qAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC); display:block; height:44px; margin:0 auto -44px; position:relative; top:-22px; width:44px;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\" color:#c9c8cd; font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; line-height:17px; margin-bottom:0; margin-top:8px; overflow:hidden; padding:8px 0 7px; text-align:center; text-overflow:ellipsis; white-space:nowrap;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/p\/0eLfkrihDb\/\" style=\" color:#c9c8cd; font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; font-style:normal; font-weight:normal; line-height:17px; text-decoration:none;\" target=\"_top\">A photo posted by glen gillinghammer (@corpoglenny)<\/a> on <time style=\" font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; line-height:17px;\" datetime=\"2015-03-21T01:37:10+00:00\">Mar 20, 2015 at 6:37pm PDT<\/time><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async defer src=\"\/\/platform.instagram.com\/en_US\/embeds.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Then we skated over to this new red curb and wow is it good.  Mike was slaying the slappies.  He had some really long ones.  Chris was going fast and doing front and back 50s.  He can&#8217;t slappy, which is kinda funny considering how good he is.  He had some sick front 360s on flat and f\/s flip and f\/s hc flip.  Mike had f\/s and b\/s slappies so good.  Then in the end he pulled the switch one.  WTF!  I had some great feeling slappy crooks and tried to back them with nollie tres.  Slappy crooks to fakie followed by fakie bigflip.  Got a couple regular slappies, but they didn&#8217;t come easy or grind far.  Did a bunch of front tails to fakie since I needed to do one for <a href=\"http:\/\/iconosquare.com\/tag\/theglenandjosholdfartlongdistanceinstagramtricksuperchallenge\/\">the game<\/a>.
