MOMENTUM WHEELS IN JAPAN

Skate

The Momentum team got back from Japan a few weeks ago, and probably hit tons of my favourite spots. Jealous! I can't wait to go back. At any rate, check out their tour blog here.

VANS BACKYARD PARTY 08

Skate

Presented by Empire and Vans, along with a slew of others such as Coors Light, Vans Backyard 08 could quite possibly the mini ramp contest of the year. What's more, this doozy event takes place in my own favourite playground, Montreal, Quebec---no doubt becoming the stuff of legends for years to come. Speaking of legends, this year, John Cardiel is also set to show up and might even throw down some epic Cardiel carves if he ends up feelin' it. In any event, THIS event is not to be missed. There's even free food! Hit up all the info right here. Then, check this footage of last year's:

4th STT PRO/FILM TEAM ANNOUNCEMENT

Film / Skate

Only 1 week to go until the contest starts! Representing the east-est of the teams are the guys from Halifax. Filmer Jason Auger, skaters Andrew McGraw, Justin Allain, Josh Clark and photog Geoff Clifford.

Still waiting for the first team from Alberta to sign up in the Digi category. Even though Dave Ko tells me otherwise, i'm beginning to doubt anyone there skates anymore. Sign up at redbullshoottothrill.com

ROB PIONTEK MEMORIAL SKATEPARK

Skate

I just recently had the pleasure of skating this park for the first time, and I gotta say, it was truly fun---a new kind of skatepark experience for around these parts. If you haven't gone yet, then ... go. Just stay away from the blood-soaked, electrical tape bandage I found in the cloverleaf. I thought it was glass or something! Also, don't mind the non-skating layabouts. I think they will begin to fade away as the park gets older. Rob Piontek RIP. Here's a rad video of the opening day:

We're still getting teams registering for the Digi category, but none from Saskatchewan or Alberta. Edmonton native Dave Ko says he "truly believes there are more and better skaters in Edmonton then Calgary". Sign up at redbullshoottothrill.com and let's find out.
