Ash Bowl Bash 2019
Speedlab Wheels and Blood Wizard skateboards sponsored the 2019 Ash Bowl Bash.
This is the second year of the contest. An event that was created to stoke out skaters on the amazing bowl at the Ashbridges Skatepark in Toronto. It brings together people from all over the city and province to push each other and progress themselves.
The team behind Ash Bowl Bash is focussed on sharing the joy of bowl skating. Encouraging young and old to ride the tile, grind concrete, and take to the sky.
The contest went off with a bang.
Watch and see.
The poster was a piece of art.

Kai Hoecke made another recap video. Great choice of music. Especially letting the music of The Exploited come through from the on site DJ at the end of the video.

Skate In A Waterpark? With Permission?
Chris Gregson leads the charge to skate every skateboarders dream spot; a waterpark.
After barging the spot off season, a few years ago, cops were called, friends were made, and now it has happened.
With full permission, the crew hits up a water park in Florida to skate what we have all dreamed of riding. Anyone who has slid down a slide had dreamed of rolling down it dry.
Bear witness as Tony Hawk, Jon Dickson, Collin Provost, Chris Gregson, Kevin Kowalski, Tristan Rennie, Torey Pudwill, Daewon Song, Tom Remillard, Omar Hassan, Karl Berlund, Aaron ‘Jaws’ Homoki, Pedro Delfino, Lizzie Armonio, Riley Hawk, and Clay Kriener.
Dreams do come true. Read Thrasher.
Keys to a drained water park and free rein to skate everything in sight?! Yes please! There are a lot of Epic Spots out there but this is truly Insane Terrain. And apparently upside-down ollies are a thing now...
