skateboarding in singapura.

"skateboarding in singapore has been undergoing a revival in the recent years. with newly opened skate parks and the establishment of many new and locally based skate shops, the sport has been experiencing a surge in popularity, spawning further growth for the local skateboarding community."

above is an extract from an article on cnngo.com written by ethan lou, a local skateboarding enthusiast, about all things skate in singapura.

trampoline skateboarding.

jason harvey, in the video above, might be the world's first professional trampoline skateboarder. he is also the inventor of the "tramp trucks", which can be fixed on any regular skateboard deck, which enables you to "skate" on a trampoline.

personally, i think this is an ingenious idea/invention that can improve ones aerial and varial skills on a normal skateboard. but the only down side about tramp skating, is the adrenaline rush when one pushes a skateboard (with regular trucks and wheels) and cruise. 'nuff said, watch the video above and enjoy!

oh yeah, in case y'all are wondering, jason harvey also rides a real skateboard.

so, we’ve been waiting for someone to lead us into this new dimension and who better to have as a virtual tour guide than upcoming creator sebastian denz. for three years, denz shot photos of carhartt’s skateboarding team using an 8 × 10 inch large-format-stereo-apparatus that his friend and custom camera specialist, dr. kurt gilde made for him. denz claims his images capture “the real hyper-reality” of the world of professional skateboarding and that he is hoping “to bring up for discussion a hybrid space that is between the virtual and the real.”
