Saturday..

With a grim weather forecast and a late start
Jeremy, Rob, Sivan, Jake, and I piled into my
Pathfinder and headed north, destination, Albany..

After a seemingly short trip we arrived at our state
capital to find impressive architecture and that the rain had held off..



Warmed up at the Vietnam Vet Memorial..


Skate stopped..


A short skate down the road led to a 3 stair over a rail..

Jeremy..kickflip


Switch front 180


Rob snuck in a back 180 before i could focus..


Do work...


Privileged, we decided to leave this spot rather than being booted..
The sky was looking ominous and had a feeling of rain as we headed downtown to eat..




Random spot across from the over priced pizza place..
Apparently Albany wants to stop people from skating shitty ledges..

..Progression of getting a trick..

Rob found a pretty gnarly ollie on to gap..
He makes it happen and here is how..



Scoping


Riding up


Jumping


Encouraging


Landing


Watching


Snapped the tail on a retake...

The rain finally let loose shortly after Rob landed the first ollie..
It was off to the Shelter for a minute..
Then a long ride home in torrential rain...

Good Saturday...
