Freestyle Now

Round 17 of the Freestyle Now Western Australian Skatepark Series was recently held at the Kalgoorlie skatepark with thanks to the City of Kalgoorlie Boulder. The skatepark in Kalgoorlie is one of the biggest in Western Australia and if you have not been there yet you need to make the trip. The City of Kalgoorlie Boulder really turned it up a notch for this competition with a heap of other activities and programs going on during the twilight competition. The locals of the area were super stoked with the competition and the next competition in Kalgoorlie is already being planned for April 2015. A big thank you to our supporters Stowaway distribution, Sacrifice scooters and 4 skateboard Co and to the City of Kalgoorlie Boulder.

Round 16 of the Freestyle Now Western Australian Skatepark Series was recently held at the Willetton skatepark with thanks to the City of Canning. Willetton skatepark is now about 13 years old and it’s strange to think that half of the competitors at the competition were only just being born at the time the skatepark was under construction. The day was awesome with a really good turnout of spectators and competitors with some really good riding being thrown down. It is always good to see riders progressing from beginners to advanced and on this day there was quite a few doing just that. Thank you to our supporters Stowaway distribution, Sacrifice scooters and 4 skateboard Co and big thanks to the City of Canning.

Round 14 of the Freestyle Now Western Australian Skatepark Series went down at the new Collie skatepark, about 200kms south of Perth. The weather did not look promising the day before and even the morning on the drive down it was not looking good. But the sun came out, just for a little while before it decided to rain. Not much rain but enough to stop the competition for a while so the park could dry up. With the help from brooms and towels the park got dry and the competition went on. This was the first competition to be held at the new Collie skatepark and some of the locals were not sure to enter or not as they did not know what to expect. This all changed once the competition started and at the prize give out most were bummed that they did not enter. There are plans for another competition scheduled for January 2015 so keep checking our coming events page for that information one we have it finalized. The day finished up well with some fairly stoked locals and a few out of towners who made the trek. Big thanks to the Shire of Collie for their support and to our supporters Stowaway distribution, Sacrifice scooters and 4 skateboard Co.
