Shutting it down
So DANE says, “really… If I land this in five more tries I get wheels and we’re never coming back here… Never coming back?! Oh it’s going down….”
This was after a handful of tries and a bit of tape. The “Raintree Ledges” as we call them, will cause what most call frustration… Lol
Sorry, I only laugh because I only skate for fun… I know my limits, I know when I can skate, lurk and film…. Or when to sit down.. I dont do battles well. I don’t like to be filmed, so I don’t have to worry about all that stuff. Anyways, back to the story…
This spot is a hard spot to get use too, but it’s quite attractive to many skaters. It’s even been in the best skate video out of Colorado to date. Oh… the title… wait you don’t know…. Well check it out! “The Stakes is High” presented by The Denver Shop or you could be lame and look up some of the parts on there YouTube! But anyway, I have been going back to this spot over and over and over, throughout the last 10 or so years, filming battles of every kind from: BACK SMITHS to HURRICANES to this present battle your reading about.
This battle began at Ka*Mitt SkateShop
at 9am… The previous week or so, I had given an order to all the P’web-Lokos to get to the shop early (9am) so we can go filming, because…. well how the Chocolate Skateboard Company says about there newest video… “We are working on it…” but of course nobody showed up… Except for Dane.
So of course, we went to the spots he wanted to partake in stunt stick maneuvers…
First we went to the brick yard!! It’s a little place in Pueblo that is full of creative things, that could be cool spots… but most skate the corner. It’s over a big curb into brick bank. Makes for good tricks and way fun to film. Dane got his first trick of the day here….
I am not going to tell you what he did, but you might be able guess what it is from the pic.
Anyways, we allowed RickD to proceed in a battle called a little tre-flip… And he couldn’t win. Therefore, allowing the spot to kick his ass! HA!
After this… For some reason I won’t say *clear throat while saying* Ricky… So we had went to the shop and charged the batteries for a little and sold some product…. Then we decided to go to another spot for Ricky.
The Raintree Ledges
This was where three tricks went down.. Nic Abeyta, Ricky DeHerrera, and Dane Scott came through putting some clips down… Dane had a little bit more of a fight with his actually trying for quite a while… But in the end, after all the shit talking, falls, missed attempts, bitching and bets… All it took was to tell him…
“If you land it in five try’s… Ricky will get you those wheels… And I will make sure we never come back to this spot!!
Sure enough two try’s in…. BAM! Clip captured… Nice one Dane!
P’WEB-LOKOS for life
