Skatepark Vote

It’s now time to vote for your chosen skate park based on the presentations and finalised designs provided by the following companies:
Bendcrete
Fearless
Gravity (Haven’t received any plans)
Maverick
Wheelscape

From Monday 21st December you are asked to speak to Steve at the Kcafe where you can register your vote against your chosen skate park company. Drawings will be available for a final look at inside kcafe, or you can look here at the links above

RULES ARE:
1. ONE MAN – ONE VOTE
You will not be able to get past Steve.
2. YOUR NAME IS WRITTEN AGAINST YOUR CHOSEN SKATE COMPANY
3. YOU CANNOT VOTE AGAIN, OR CHANGE YOUR VOTE
so take time to think.
4. YOU CAN TALK DIRECTLY TO THE COMPANIES INVOLVED IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.
5. REGULAR OR SEMI-REGULAR SKATE PARK USERS ONLY. OTHER VISITORS WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO VOTE.
This keeps the integrity of the voting.
You will not be able to get past Steve.
6. YOU WILL BE DISQUALIFIED FROM VOTING IF YOUR BEHAVIOUR DURING THE VOTING PROCESS IS UNACCEPTABLE TO KCAFE.

Voting can take place on any of the days in between 21st december and 17th January. The park (with Steve present) is open 7 days a week from 10am to 4pm – except Christmas Day.
While your visiting Steve, why not support Kcafe and the young people in Richmond by grabbing a coffee and some grub!!

The winning company will be announced officially by Kcafe on the evening of Sunday 17th January 2010.

Please note that we cannot promise that the winning company will then be the CHOSEN company. We will make our recommendations to the council and various committees involved in the decision processes based on what you say through the voting as … THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN.

Helmet Cam

Billy over at Dirt mag very kindly leant me a pretty rad helmet cam. This was taken a while ago but its taken me a while to figure out how to convert the file formats since I suck balls at computering. Anyway now I’ve sussed it expect more! Me following Seb going mainline into Jam, you’re knackered by the time you get to the bottom…

Bendcrete Submitted Park Designs

Here we go, Bendcretes submitted park designs. Doesn’t seem to have a jump box which a lot of people will hate, I quite like the wallrides, what do you guys think?. I don’t normally bother putting the spec in the post, but as a special Christmas treat here it is. Apparently this was a quick turn around and they are happy to modify if needs be.
