Kingston comp/demo day

We got lucky with the weather in the end, proper nice sunny day.  There was a fairly good turnout of both Riders and Skaters and I think a good time was had by all.  Sam took the win in the comp with lots of whips and barspins.  More importantly though the meeting with the council types went well and it looks like Kingston will be getting a sweet park around this time next year, as long as we can secure enough funding.  A few provisional plans are in the K Cafe at the mo, so go have a look if you’re interested, but remember none of them are anywhere near being a final design.  Here’s the photos.

    I think Bell deserves props for saving that meeting from Davros.

        He started saying stupid shit like how skateboardings popularity was decreasing and that not many girls do the sport. So Bell the brain stepped in and made the save.

              Steve was reluctant to be photo’d, I have one but its not really right for that idea you had, i’ll try and get another.
