Gold Cup Skateboards and Lance Mountain collaborate to present the Banana Board!!
America in the 1970’s saw skateboarding sky rocket to amazing popularity, with newcomers drifting down their road to skateboard madness on a brightly colored “plastic” polypropylene skateboard. The old style plastic skateboard designs were pretty crude, and the deck tops were literally as slippery as a banana skin! Fast forward to 2012 and Gold Cup proudly presents to you the all new revolutionary Banana Board, made with custom branded and designed components using the best quality materials on the planet.
This sunday saw the last Jam at Newport outdoor skatepark ( South Wales ) the park is earmarked for Demolishing as the local Football grounds are expanding . but its not all bad news, the park was in serious need of repair and they are getting a Brand new one Built by Scotish gnarler Youngo and the A-Crete crew .
So sunday seen seem a host of locals and some shiner staff getting involved. check some of the Photos form Sunday
The Jam was created by local shop Freestyle, so Sam of was on the Megaphone, shouting against a loud Joe Habgood( Bones and Krux rider)
Newport local and Krooked flow rider Tom Bailey has one of the most stylish Hurricane’s around, always a pleasure to see him skate .
Shiner warehouse staff and OJ wheels flow rider Joxa was there as well smashing himself to bits while smiling at all times. This mean feeble fakie was one of the many things that went down on the whippy vert wall.
Joe Habgood is officially louder than a megaphone, as he was often heard shouting over Sams efforts. As most of the skating went down on the whippy Joe was constantly beasting the rest of the guys to land it while killing himself at the same time.
Fellow shiner warehouse staff and Real flow rider Tom Steele was at the brunt end of Joe’s screams of encouragment and took some serious slams to get this ollie blunt, earning a cup of Joxa’s tea.
It was good to see a host of skaters out enjoyings the sun. Some serious stuff went down and will definitely put an end to that era of the Park
