Gromfest Pics

Monday, September 29th, 2008

My dawg DJ Praiz snapped some pics of the Gromfest groms when they came to town. Holy Shit can they rip. I seen young kids slay it, but these guys were some of the most talented little groms I seen skate. Check the video out on Push.ca that Ryan Sliziak edited and I filmed.

R.I.P. Creekside Underground Skatepark

Thursday, September 25th, 2008
On Sept. 24th and 25th with the help of Whistler/Blackcomb a solid crew of volunteers, Brian Hockenstein and myself started removing the Skatepark from the Creekside underground parking lot. With the help of the community, WB foundation, WB and the WSA we have had a sweet little skatepark in the Creek for just about 4 years. But unfortunately with the value of parking stalls and some neagtive actions around the park we unfortunately needed to shut her down. It’s on its way into storage for now until we can find a logical facility which doesn’t look like it will happen that shortly. It is likely we may turn the main bowl into a modular smaller style bowl that we will hopefully bring out for fundraisers for the next WSA project, but only time and costs involved will tell. Thanks goes out to anyone who has been helping remove the ramps.

We worked the mini firstAnd then it was time for the skatelite on the bowl
