Gone Skateboarding?

I wonder why they cut those triangular holes in the trannies

Waiting on @Snurp and @niallc

On holiday visiting family in Cornwall and went to the new St. Ives Park with an old friend. Best skate I’ve had in ages, all finished off with fish and chips by the sea (and even tamed that mini ‘loop the loop’ thing they’ve got).
Skateboarding is bloody brill.

I saw that but by the time I though of fetching it there were a few too many cars around. Looked fun though. Those curbs were just dandy for our creaky bones. Low impact.

sunderland civic, some better ones around the back of the ones pictured but its all pretty gash to be honest. maybe with some soft 60mms you’d have a cracking time. got a quick pop up gap over fs lip on it which im happy about.

Skated a park on my own this morning, had lunch at home, realized it was about to rain, rushed to the local park as I wanted to learn a trick. It started drizzling 10 minutes after I got there but I got my trick. Sketchily but I got it. I’ll go back and will do it better. Knackered but happy now.

Better have been a fs Slappy :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

I’ll pay 20 pints to whoever can frontside slappy the thing I skated!

Had a sick weekend of skating. Set off early Saturday and skated this rad ‘secret’ DIY spot some of the Newport skaters have made. You can see two of the obstacles in these clips but there’s loads of funny stuff to skate there.

Then headed to Monmouth skatepark which was ok but pretty busy and slightly weird layout which makes it hard to hit a lot of stuff. Couldn’t even land this trick because it took so long between attempts due to having to jump off for this one dickhead scooter kid who was constantly in the way.

Then we went on to Camp Hillcrest where we got on the beers and skated the park. Slept in my van under a towel because I forgot a sleeping bag and pillow. Loved every second. Camp Hillcrest is absolutely sick and it should be a must visit for every UK skater.

My daughter also won the cookery prize at the Eisteddfod (Welsh national schools competition) and got herself on TV on Friday which should probably go in the stoked thread :smiley:

yeah not a bad place if you’re photographically inclined, rest of it’s falling apart though and slated for demolition.
