If your not already in Victoria and are feeling randy, get in the old Westfalia and hit the 7am over to Swartz Bay this Saturday. Before you cruz down to the drum circle at the whale wall, kick it over to The Victoria West Skatepark and check out the 7th annual Vee Dub Skateboard contest. Should be a ton of fun! For more info contact HTO or Coastline.
Head on up to The Boardroom at the top of Lonsdale in North Vancouver for all your skateboarding needs, and while your there grab yourself a fresh pair of Lakai shoes!
Recently SBC held a contest to discover who was Canada’s top shop. The rules were simple, set up a skateboard deck from start to finish as fast as you can, film it, post it on youtube. When all is said and done, the fastest time belonged to Fluid Sports in Maple Ridge. Congrats guys! You can check out the winning video below and the rest of the entries here.
This Sunday while you all were snowboarding, watching football or frantically hitting refresh, the 13 annual Welcome to Winter contest went down in beautiful Regina.

Thanks goes out again to Tiki Room crew and Noel for putting on such a killer event. Oh yea, and for those of you wondering what happened to white Akon, he can be seen on this video over at SBC.
