As we all know, yesterday June 21st was fathers day, but in our world, more importantly it was Go Skateboarding Day!! The Vancouver turn out was huge, with thousands of skateboarders starting their day at the Plaza. Everyone was happy watching the Emerica team do their thing even if alot of people were a little beat up from watching Andrew Reynolds band the evening before. From the plaza the streets were packed cruising to some of the spots around downtown Vancouver to chuck tricks for cash. As everyone cruised from spot to spot, eventually we caught the attention of the police, but instead of dumping beer, handing out tickets and plain well ruining our event, they just ended up being an escort through the city streets! The day went great ending with the now traditional skate over the Georgia viaduct bridge ending at the Stratchona skatepark for a bbq and more skating to finish the day off. All in all this years day was a success, cant wait to do it again next year!
