Day 2 – Saturday morning.
I woke up on the floor next to Fuzz. Glen was sleeping on a couch that was half the length of his body, cuddling with a dog. Jack was the only one who looked remotely comfortable. Time to wake up!
We got ourselves together and went out for an amazing breakfast (bloody mary and all), then hit Market so I could set up a new board and buy some new shoes. Actually… the sweetest shoes ever. Es Bobby Worrests. Then we hit the road with Chris and Daryl in a separate car, heading to Wyoming. One more stop at a store called Jax, where I grabbed a car charger for my camera and a new toy… a telephoto lens!! Woohoo! My first lens besides the stock lens that came with the camera.
Once we hit Wyoming, we headed straight to the Cheyenne park to meet back up with Chris and Daryl, and also Brian and Neil. And we were back in it to win it.
We hung around the park for a bit to take care of a few other challenges. The guys did their civil war reenactment (100 points) and grinded over some racial graffiti in the bowl (20 points). Fuzz talked to a broad about dogs, sex, and burning one at her house (10 points), while a few of us stuck to skating the ledge, where each trick was 20 points a piece. I know everyone else was landing crazy tricks that I don’t even remember, but I was hyped just to get my 3 go to tricks… noseslide, noseslide shuv out, and 180 nosegrind to fakie. I also did the “borrow a local’s board and see how long you can keep it” challenge for 50 points. The trucks were so tight I wiped out just skating flat around the bowl area.
il about 5am. We played a name skaters type game for hours and beer cans were chucked all over the place. I attempted to clean them all up before going to bed, which just turned into something like a snowball fight between me and people on the deck. I was trying to hit Jack and instead Glen every time until I finally clocked Jack in the back of the head. Oops. Sooooo much fun. Then we piled in to the living for a big slumber party. I found a spot on the floor, Daryl hooked me up with a pillow and I used my hoodie and flannel as a blanket and my beanie to cover my feet. Gotta love crashing on road trips!
