The fine people at ALC, CIRCA and CHEAPSKATES Wellington put on this fine event at the Civic Square on the weekend. Apart from interuptions from the Astrology Society’s rocking band and Wiggles supporters (yes, through that door to the right of frame hundreds, if not thousands, of Wiggles supporters lay waiting to be a pain in the butt) I’d say the event went off without a hitch. Although it was cut a little short, due to the aforementioned reasons some excellent skateboarding maneuvers got “thrown down”. Guy Coney is busy wipping together a video of the event, which we will have to you shortly. And I will load up the rest of the sequences once I find which folder I saved them in. Enjoy these pics in the meantime.
Francisco took a beating to get this smooth nosegrind.
Auckland transplant Edwin Massold popped a huge switch heel.
Dom got some money for a backside nollie 180 heelflip.
Blinded by the awesomeness of product toss.
“Jeez I wish I was watching The Wiggles right now”.
In true Wellington form the wind was there, and so was Blair and Sean.
Judging is thirsty work.
