Newport Skatepark & Video of the day! 'Life Splicing No. 004: Nick Boserio'

This guy's style is reeeeeeeal nice and makes this little section stand out from all the other squeaky clean web edits out there. The accompanying track is pretty cool too.



PS If you live anywhere in South Wales/Newport area and skateboard/BMX/inline or use skateparks for whatever reason, you should sign this petition to help the users of Newport skate park. It's being demolished to make way for a football training academy at some point in the near future. The Council have kept it rather quiet too not telling the community of users until recently. There's been problems with this park from day one and personally I'm not sad to hear it's going. I am sad at the thought of going back to being the only town/city anywhere without a good, free to access outdoor skate park. Hopefully the Council will listen to the users of the park and get a new one built before this park is destroyed. Apparently around £200,000 was spent on this only a few years ago (mostly grant money I think), as a Council tax payer I'm not happy with that amount of money being wasted to make way for a 'proper' sports facility and I hope we get a decent concrete park built somewhere else. Perhaps it can even right some of the wrongs of the existing skate park if it's done well by a reputable company (with Newport Council in charge? bollocks).

Here's the link so get signing http://www.PetitionOnline.com/SNSPN/petition.html

You stay classy! and thanks for dropping by!
