This Friday is Go Skateboarding Day, so I hope you are all gonna try to get out for a skate! I’m lucky enough to have the day off so will be skating all day.
Pretty sure I’ll be starting off at St Kilda skate space, then working way into the city.

Here are some “events” I know are happening:

So who else is getting out there today? I’m going to head to Berwick after work. Maybe even The Shed, they have a few things on for GSD by the looks of it.

which is kinda strange considering the amount of skate parks/areas.

Knowing my luck (and skill) on a skateboard I’m going to just cruise about my street and try not to damage anything or myself..  rocker
