Flatspot x Skateslate Bowl Opening Party

The exceptionally hard work of Charlie Tidd, Adam Winston and Jeremy Metro culminated a beautiful arrangement of concrete and wood. Passion and material melded to create a bowl of epic proportions and small stature. This beast of a mini-bowl is Flatspots’ pride and joy. And once the word was done, we had a party. Thanks to skateslate for filming and documenting the adventure.

If you want to skate this bowl, drop by flatspot with some small change, a bucket and a board, and you are good to go. Unfortunately the bowl shares a wall with the offices for a travel agency next door. Sitting at a desk and selling plane tickets can become a miserable thing when you can hear the wonderous fun of skateboarding 10 ft. away. So we respect their quality of life and ONLY SKATE THE BOWL PAST 6PM.

Slippery When Wet

 SLIPPERY WHEN WET

 

Spencer Smith and Mischa Chandler skate down one of Vancouver’s iconic gems. This spot really is slippery, the fact that its steep and filled with corners is great. The video is just about as long as it takes to take your time down it. Don’t rail it to hard though, I’ve showed up to that hill when a girl was getting her broken leg set after going off the road. So, take caution, slippery when wet!

But thats just one axis. ONE! Someone wise once said “one is the lonliest number.” Well its also a lame number. So there. // read more
