bcskateboarding.org

bcskateboarding.org aims to bring positive attention to the sport of skateboarding in the communities throughout British Columbia and beyond.

This blog provides updated and informative localized commentary on skateboarders activities in BC. We do not profit from this service. We feel strongly that a resource such as ours is important for skateboarders and non-skateboarders.

Check out this new FB group out of Abbotsford, BC. “Goals and Philosophy of this site.
To hopefully educate skaters who don’t understand and to re-ignite that old flame the lost Brotherhood. The Brotherhood we shared and have lost, the Brotherhood that needs to be ignited again and forever brought back. I am working on a Skateboard day prior to ‘Go Skateboarding Day’ a day for the older skaters to unite and bring the new generation a understanding of what Skateboard community truly is about.”
