Back again for another update on the Pro Course construction. Things are moving right along and this thing should be finished any day now. That's Allen and Gene putting the beard power into full effect.
I don't think that hole Sterling is in will be part of the new course, but you never know...
Schaefer and Big Russ always thinking, making changes, talking it out...or deciding what to have for lunch.
Wait...what's going on in the Kid Course? We'll get back to that in a minute.
Looks like the stairs are getting an upgrade after all.
Skating is limited right now, but it's also FREE until we finish up all the work. These dudes taking advantage of the new benches around the park.
SPoT Lifer Cole Jordan getting down on our concrete course, which is about the only thing NOT under construction right now. Thanks to homie on the left repping our shirt.
Free skating, free skating, free skating.
In a matter of weeks, these hallways will be filled with people from all over the world during our 22nd Annual Tampa Am contest. Andy Johnson bills and ships your online orders and still has time for kickflips in between.
Another overview of the progress.
DMFP in the house... have you seen the griptape art he does? We sell it.
Ok, back to the Kid Course... looks like after a solid year, we are bringing back a proper mini-ramp to the mix. I can't wait to skate this thing!
Eric McKenney takes a time out to get loose out in the courtyard. Skate Every Damn Thing.
Back to the Pro Course...you can see how fast these dudes are getting it done.
This just went up this morning... a nice little speed bump between QPs. There's one on the other side too.
That hubba!
That's it for now. Next time we check in, it'll be a little less of a mess and more of a course. Stay tuned...
