It was a cool yet sunny day and classes were over, so what else was Ollie to do but go skating? It's not like he was going to stay in and do homework on a day like this after all. That was just crazy talk. He headed to his room to drop off his stuff then left with his board. He was instantly on the board once he was back outside, letting the cool wind brush his face as he rolled out. He met the park about the same time as most of the other skaters from around town got there, so they had already begun taking over a section just for skating. As usual, Ollie had to come in with something pretty badass just to get everyone's attention. He wouldn't really call himself an attention whore or anything. Others would, but he wouldn't. His choice for today was grinding off a bench nearby and then leaping off it with an Alpha flip. He had only tried it a few times, so there was definitely a chance of him screwing it up; on the other hand, pulling it off would look outstanding.
He landed his deck on the bench back then, just as he left the bench, he kicked the board in such a way that it spun around horizontally while flipping the deck. He landed a little on the wobbly side, but his natural (or possibly unnatural) balance helped him not to show. A few of the other skaters called out how awesome that was, to which Oliver couldn't help but grin about. He then looked around for any faces he knew. Showing off is great, but skating with someone is always more fun than just being on your own. Boarding alone was for competitions and practice, today he was wanting to just have some fun.
