Newsflash April 24th

London skaters will be happy to hear that Bay Sixty6 Skatepark has started to rebuild the street course that was severely fire damaged last year leaving the back of the park a smouldering wreck.

The new street course will take about 6-7 weeks to finish and work started this weekend. Plans for the park will be revealed hopefully this week so you can see what is going to be built. The designs came from various open sessions with input from locals, the UKSA and key input from John at Freestyle.

Let's hope the park can be ready in time for the opening party scheduled for Saturday June 9th, expect a large celebration at the park as they will celebrate 10 years of being up and running!

For England & St George

Seein' as it's St Georges day I thought I ought to do something patriotic. Couldn't find anything with the St George's Cross though so had to make do with these offerings from Code & Enuff using the Union Flag. Still I don't think Ol' Winston'd complain; I mean at least I tried!

Add to My Profile More Videos
Matix have just announced that Yorkshire based skater Tom Harrison has joined their UK team. Joining the likes of Joey Crack, Snowy, Chewy, and Danny Brady his addition to the team can only increase the potential of this

already strong roster.

DVS have joined forces with the SPoTlight Productions Team (from Skatepark of Tampa) to bring you the first of an annual competition to be held in Copenhagen Skatepark, the CPH Pro 2007. Events & Demos will be running from June 29th to July 4th with some serious partying in the evening/early morning.

This will be a non-profit event, any money made goes right back into the skate industry for making comps like this bigger and better. It will also help put focus on the current decline in pro board sales in another attempt to sway people away from the blank decks that do nothing for the scene.
