Cork Skatepark 7th week

The park is looking better.

Pour more concrete please!

The quarters and the flatbanks are smaller than they looked on the plan though.



Hopefully the adjustments proposed will be considered.

Yow (spanish connection) Mast and Shimy left their mark at the skatepark concluding a crazy and tiring tour.

They are now safe.

Good morning session

No way Jose Tour 3

Next Monday the Ripall crew and friends will flight to Alicante for 1 week.
The weather is supposed to be cold but dry.

Alicante has 3 good skateparks around and some good street spots.
We will skate Valencia and probably Madrid.

Less driving and more chilling is the main idea.

Check Volcom footage from Alicante.
Roberto alemañ who skates for Consolidated brought the team some time ago.
