They will take place on Saturday 12th December at Pioneer Skatepark in St Albans from 5pm.  The entry will be £10, so whether you are a new rider or an old had, come down and skate, have fun and kill it.  The skatepark is open during the day so feel free to come down and practice as I’m sure it will be packed with riders.  This event is all about the UK riders getting together and having fun, skating and giving each other tips.

Check it out; a new Streetboard Wheel company is soon to be launched;

Thomas Kienle (pictured below), Dimension Streetboards Pro rider and owner of Ositos, is set to open his own skate shop in Stuttgart, Germany!  The shop will be called “Kiste Skateshop”

We didn’t have a current photo of the man himself, so our resident artist, Sketchin’ Jim, knocked up a portrait.

Not wanting to make it too easy to find his new shop, we have some cryptic clues from Kienle, and we quote:

“ It’s located in the little skyscraper you can see between the trees on the 5th picture at http://www.sk8mag.de/Spots/Stuttgart_Bowl/.  A  few minutes walk to the main stadtion close to all the spots and clubs…”

Good luck friends, and the best of luck to Thomas and his crew!
