For Go Skateboard Day we really wanted to give back to the People that support us the most, Skateboarders! We had Team Rider Joe Mott Drive upto Westside to Pick up the Kelowna Kids in his 15 Passenger Van and Shuttle kids to the Penticton park so they could Get in on The Bowl Jam BBQ. We Rolled the BBQ in, Hooked up the DJ Gear, Brought a Shit ton of Prizes and Set it Off! To Start it we Called out everyone’s Name and Made them Drop the Bowl and show us what they got. After each run you would get hooked up with a Dope Krew Tee, Hat or Prize of your Choice. It didn’t Matter if You could Handplant the Extension or Just pump around the Bowl, You got Hooked up! While you were waiting, as you can see above, Rob A.K.A. Bobby Dig got his Chef Hat on and Fried up come Delicious Chilli Doggs. Mmmmmmm Sooo Good. After the Bowl Jam Died off and the Chilli Doggs Ran out we had a Best Trick on the Step up. Chris Killed it and Won some Dope Circa Shoes. After that We Got everyone Back in the Bowl, This Time only to Toss A Bunch of Rad Prizes from Krew, Supra, Circa, Sk8 Mafia, Huf, The Hundreds, Elm, O’Neill, Nixon, Nomis, Volcom, Creature, Voleurz, Adidas and of course Ogos Ice Cream also Hooked it up with Free Ice Cream Cones and a Draw for an 8″ Inch Cake. Which As you can See Riley Above was Super Stoked on…. Once the Majority of the Prizes were Gone we All Skated over to the Band Shell for One Big Game of S.K.A.T.E. Freeride’s own Eric Lees took it for AM and Dean Wuensche for Pro. Eric With the Circa Shoes above and Deaner walked away with the Creature Beer Cruiser . From Mid Afternoon Till Night Fall Everyone Skated As hard as the Could For Go Skateboard Day. Thanks to All the Sponsors for Hooking it Up and Kids Rollin down to Skate For the Day. It Definitely was one of the Funnest Go Skateboard Day’s In The Okanagan Yet!

Go Skateboarding Day!
What It’s All About: On June 21 skateboarders around the globe will celebrate the pure exhilaration, creativity, and spirit of one of the most infuential activities in the world by blowing off all other obligations to go skateboarding. OK, most skateboarders do this every day of their lives, but this is just one more reason to blow off your television/computer/video games and go skateboarding!
Skateboarders everywhere will show their love and support for skateboarding by holding fundraisers, contests, protests and demos. They’ll skate across cities, gather in skateparks, stream into their local skate shop and some will even revel in the solitary act of skateboarding alone at their favorite spot, all bringing together the skateboarding community in the grind heard around the world.
The History: Go Skateboarding Day, held on June 21 every year, is the official holiday of skateboarding. The holiday began June 21, 2003 as an excuse for skateboarders to make skateboarding their top priority. Go Skateboarding Day began with a few simple skate sessions and bar-b-ques held in skateboarding’s unofficial capital, southern California.
Founded by the International Association of Skateboard Companies (IASC), Go Skateboarding Day gives passionate skateboarders as well as those who are simply inspired by skateboarding, the opportunity to drop everything and get on a skateboard.Go Skateboarding Day is a cooperative of decentralized events that take place around the globe. Skateboard retailers, manufacturers, skateparks, distributors, organizations and individuals of all colors, creeds, and attitudes hold skateboarding events to celebrate the holiday. Skateboarders around the world create their own events and traditions to celebrate skateboarding.
Go Skateboarding Day originated as the day for skateboarders to have fun, to raise awareness about the issues we face; to show the world what skateboarding is really all about; to reclaim our culture; and to define skateboarding as the rebellious, creative celebration of independence it continues to be. In the years since that first celebration, the holiday continues to grow, but the mission remains the same: Have fun, go skateboarding!
