Title: Flat and street
Post by: paulbrown692000 on November 14, 2010, 01:48:06 AM
Someone needs to hold a contest where you mix both flatland and street, and or ramp.

Yes, that's really cool. Reminds me of Dorkin' movies, where Kevin Jones and Mark Eaton did exactly that.

No flips just Flat, I know that street has become more flat, and ron wilkerson put flat to ramp, so why not a contest with both.

I once entered a park contest and did some grinds and some flatland. I came last.

I also did a grind in a flatland contest once. I knocked down a sign, and might have gotten disqualified.

I could make this happen. I am the operator of the Anderson, Indiana Skate Park. My shop, Unknown sports is located right next door. We have a "real" street type of park with large flat areas at both ends. Let me know if there are any possible sponsors for such an event, anyone? I would definitely like to talk with someone in greater detail about this. Lets get this ball rollin!

I do like the idea of an all-around riding contest, tho I wonder how many riders could/would enter. maybe have flat and park in separate runs and take an overall score for placing? something like that. rad.
