Love Rye Airfield..

So Wednesday night Rollin' Randy Richard, Jaw Dropping Jared Brooks and myself went to Rye Airfield for Old Guys night. $10 for a 2:45 session is quite good. Especially at this place. Rye is amazing. I can't wait to go again. If you have never been I suggest it strongly. It has something for every level of skater. My personal favorite is the micro area. That little spot is enough to make me want to go back. If that is all it had I would still go back. But that is just a small portion of this amazing skate park. There are 3 bowls, a nice street area, a nice ramp area where most of the bikers are and a HUGE vert ramp. Thing is intimidating to look at. Maybe one day I will drop in on that, but probably not. I don't think I could ever get up the nerve for that. That thing is crazy. But what a great park. I will definitely be going over there as much as possible.

I really loved that micro area. I actually dropped in on the quarter pipes and used the half pipe in there. I almost was able to do a rock and roll fakie. Took a few hard spills trying it, but it was fun. Again, my knee took the worst of it. I gotta let that thing heal. I could feel blood dripping down my leg half way through the night. Anyway, almost got the fakie down. I am excited about that. I am going back sometime this week to work on that. Hopefully I can figure it out and be able to do it regularly. I also was grinding the rail on the little box in the micro area. I actually made it all the way across a few times and stayed on my board. I am happy about that too. It was such a great night. Skating with some of my best buds, not much better than that. I really look forward to skating there again. It is such and awesome place. Join us every other Wedenesday night. Next time we will be there is January 5th. Let's skate! http://www.ryeairfield.com/
