Chai Wan Skateboard Park, Hong Kong Winter Session 

Now that the weather is cooling off here in southern China, a group of us teachers and students decided on a skate trip to Chai Wan in central Hong Kong near the public swimming pool side garden. This wasn't the first time we've been there, and this time was just as fun as the first visit. The park consists of a micro ramp, and a street section with a shallow mini pyramid, ledge, and mini spin. All the surfaces are covered in Masonite, and they are all in excellent condition even though the park is a few years old.

Our group consisted of people who new nothing about skating, to people who had competed in competitions. The weather was absolutely perfect and everyone had a great time. This is fun park to try new tricks and just kick-back. On the way out of the park, are some brick bankers on a downhill street. This is always a fun way to end a session. Afterwards we all headed to the Flying Pan for an old fashioned American breakfast. Shawn and Adrian had a contest to see who could finish their meal. I'd have to say Shawn was the winner pounding his kitchen sink meal.

Stoked Video

The movie "Stoked the Rise and Fall of Gator" has just been released on DVD/VHS. It shows the life and career of Gator and what led to his downfall. The video had a great message which Mountain and Cab talked about in the end where we all have to remember not to forget why we all started to skate in the forst place, and always enjoy it as some people get all caught up in the "fame" of it. I definatly recommend watch this video (if your old enough).
