Boards, Wood, Bridges

I met up with Mason to pick up another board.  It was very nice of him to contribute this board, but even funnier that it's Kahlil's board that has been sitting around since Mason and I lived together.  At least it will get used now.

Then Kenyatta gave me a complete and a bunch of product. Thanks buddy!

After that I went to Vitamin Cottage and got a delicious vegan pasta and a Hansen's soda.

Denver Park!

When I got out of my car, I dropped my water bottle that I've been using for months.  It exploded all over my feet and broke. Bummer wave.

Onto The Shop.

We loaded up Cory's car with wood for DU ditch.  Scott sat on top of the wood during the ride over.

J Greer's board went into the water before the bridge was even built.

Wood!

Like a bridge over troubled water...

After skating, I met up with Tyler Haberkorn and Keith to get more skate stuff.  Tyler complained they aren't any photos of me on the blog, so he took one.

Then I got dinner with the illusive Jason Clark.  Quite a treat.

Whiteney

Ty and I skated Greenwood Village park, the home turf of Derek Milton and Greg Knight.  After about 15 minutes I was over it.

Then we went to the inferior version of Chipotle to meet up with Cory.  They did have this crazy Coke machine though.

Raspberry, Vanilla, Lime, Orange, and/or Cherry flavored Coke. Amazing.

The future is here.

Ty's face of confusion as he realizes that we aren't at Chipotle.

After that we cruised to The Shop to see Tony.

Ty decided to do some hood rat stuff.

Changed Whitney's name.  Very clever Ty.

Paul Gardner was at The Shop too. Always a pleasure.

This spot.

Buncha dorks.

Kehoe nailed it.

Tony Mellick Still Skates

Ty and I got up at 8:30 to go meet Shad and Tyler at the new Northglenn park.  Coffee was a must before.

Shad is a smiles and psyched to skate.

Shredding commenced.

Then I took my parents to the airport for their vacation.  Later you two, hopefully I don't burn the house down!

After that I cruised to The Shop.

Then a street spot.

Mike did this gap to 50-50 for Lil Wayne.  He's a big fan now.

And then we cruised out to Parker for a night session.  I mostly went because Tony said he would be there skating.  I'm just glad Cory let us skate his home turf.

Here he is!  He requested the ender in the web clip so he got it.

Tranny session!

Fights with Girls

I went to the new Northglenn park.  Very fun!

Chad, Shardy, and Jamie ripped.

Then Shardy, Chad, and I went to Chipotle for lunch.

Then we skated Zuni park.

The three of us had a good time.

The parks were fun, but we needed some street action.

The homies got some warm ups...

Then the cops showed up because it was reported that we were, "fighting girls with our skateboards". The cops were super cool once they realized we were definitely just having a good time and not fighting anyone.  They sweated J Greer a little about his socks though.

Horchata!

Then we skated downtown for a bit.

Cory ready for action.

Greg Knight showed up super randomly on his bicycle.

Whitney tried to get down here but it started raining.

Then Shardy and I got some pizza and watched the Hot Wax video.

El Pueblo

I got up at 7:30 a.m. to go on a day trip to Pueblo to skate with the crew.

Had to pick Joey up on the way.

We met up in Castle Rock with these dorks.  Jump rope and stretching to get ready.

First spot!

The session was short lived due to the fact that Garrett broke his pinkie.

"Uhhh, I think it's broke"

Garrett took it like a G and decided to keep skating the rest of the day.  We made a popsicle splint and he proceeded to get buck on this obstacle.

Greg got his too.

Lunch to celebrate the tricks already gotten.

Then we went on a Fulfill the Dream type journey to the Pueblo quarter pipe.  If that metaphor doesn't make sense to you, watch this.  And if it does, watch that anyways.

We've arrived!

The spot doubles as Pueblo's water world!

Shredding commences.

Peanut gallery.

Winners circle.

Then on to a nice gap.

Victory!

Greg got weird on some train gaps.

Last spot of the day. Thanks to the Pueblo crew for showing us around.

When we got back to Denver I went and got a nice meal by myself.  BBQ tofo sandwich!

Then I went to a party for a couple minutes.

Good work everyone!  Can't wait for the video...
