Volcom Wild in the Park Switzerland
Filmed by: Marcel Brünisholz Edit: SB
This year, the famous Skateshop KSG (Kitchener) placed their fabulous old school skatepark at our disposal. This technical and roots style outdoor skatepark with a basic setup, was perfect to run a Wild in the Park tourstop. If you pass next time near Bern…check it out.
The park setup got divided in 3 areas, 2-3 Obstacles per area and yeah!…so much possibilities, so much fun. The setup permitted sick and creative runs on a very high level.
50 kids and legends from all over Switzerland attacked our inscription table at 11 am. They almost killed us to get started their practice runs, so we felt like real animal trainers in a cage…and it was hot, very hot. 35 degrees on asphalt, in a city is heavy!
Then at noon it was on…the little kids opened the contest like a hurricane, the big kids finished it like a firework…check all the pics and especially the video in this report…my words would be worthless.
Our speaker Timmy brought a damn good mood in our skate circus arena…thanks Timmy! Pushed by him and the crowd the finalists brought the contest to boil! In and around the aspahlt ghetto, it suddenly became very loud.
The spontaneuous best trick session at the end of the contest killed everybody. Happy but tired was the general feedback…we`re happy about a good day of wild skateboarding. For the prizegiving the „competitors“ amoke again.
Thanks to everybody for coming, we we have appreciated your show!
