Today's session started off fun, but there are like there are about 6 dudes who frequent the park who are complete fucking ass-hats. I'd guess they're anywhere from twenty-two to mid-30s. They are too old to skate the park in such a shitty manner.
They skate like 8 years olds who haven't learned the rules of the park. But instead of it being from not knowing better, they seem to think the rules don't apply to them. This seems really common among dudes who were slightly better than I was at my peak.
One dude tonight was trying a few runs, but he'd missed a trick and instead of being like, "Welp, that sucks my turn is over," he'd snake everyone and started again immediately.
The same dude would miss his manual trick, hit the ramp behind the manual pad (knowing there were people queuing up to skate the manual pad from direction he had first tried to skate it), and then just try again going against traffic not giving a fuck if he ran into someone else.
One dude, seems to think the park being crowded gives him an excuse to never wait for his turn. Just snake everyone and skate the entire park even though everyone else skates as if it was divided into fourths when it is packed. There are a few people who can skate the whole park but they go out of their way to find breaks in the traffic rather than just plowing over people.
The same dude as a above sees a little kid being a little kid and one of the dudes who is nice and is fucking amazing, supporting the kid being a kid, so he decides to power slide at the kid to scare him and make sure everyone knows, even though it wasn't even his turn, he was upset he wasn't able to skate where the kid was standing.
These people make the session miserable as there is no escaping them. They completely change the vibe. It goes from fun to cool-guy miserable as soon as they show up.
