TweetBig night for the Gnargore crew last night. Premiere went off with the cinema bursting at the seams with hyped crews ready for the first showing of Kickflip And Friends. The show didn't disappoint with solid sections from Ryan Price, Luke Kindon, James Jones, James Denning, Rasheed Osman and Nick Binnington as well as the original Gnargore S'Bridge Multi old guard getting business done too...There was drinking, swimming in the fountain, a little scrap and a lengthy product raffle at the end. Almost everyone went home happy. Thanks for sharing.
Bordesley Bowl.

TweetThis Saturday there is a re-opening event at the Bordesley Green skatepark and you are invited. It starts at 1pm so head up there and show the locals what skateboarding is about. The park has been cleaned up and painted and there will be a youth worker on site during daylight hours so at last this place can get some use. And the bonus is you won't need to spend an hour sweeping the place out before you can get a skate.
Find it just off Whitacre road, Bordesley Green. B9 5HQ

If you have yet to visit then take a look and see what we have done with the place and then get down here. In other news, due to a clash in dates, we are short handed and thus are going to be closed this Sunday [10/6/2012], the first Sunday closure in a very long time. Back in as usual on Monday. See you then, then.
