Globe Record Leaks - Ambleside

Skate

In the lobby of the Best Western on April 5th, we were all a little nervous as to how the weather would play out. The day before had been perfect and we were kicking ourselves for moving the event back a day to give the guys a chance to do some shop signings. The sky was pretty cloudy as we crossed the Lions Gate Bridge into North Van but things were looking good when we got to our first park of the day, Ambleside, and the clouds started to break. We had planned to start at the Horseshoe Bay park all along, but with some last minute adjustments, we opted to begin a bit more eastward where the parks were clumped together better. This would help set the tone for the day's momentum. Haslam warms up and checks out some less-than-perfect obstacles then gets to work on some doubles with DeCenzo. Meanwhile, Appleyard goofs around with some driftwood.

Check back everyday for more extras and see the entire adventure unfold, including the best photos and stories plus the epic conclusion of The Globe Record, in the new issue Color 10.2 (Now Shipping!). Also, stay tuned for the short feature film debuting on Go Skate Day (June 21, 2012)
