Go Skate Day Montreal

Yesterday, June 21st, we celebrated the Go Skateboarding Day at the Project 45 in Montreal. This skate jam presented by RVCA, Exposé Mag and Vans gathered the skateboard scene of the Montreal area to shred the new concrete DIY obstacles built by the good people of the Project 45.

For those of you who are unfamiliar with the Project, it consist of a team of hard working volunteers, dedicated to build the best DIY Skatepark Project for Montreal’s Skateboarders. Frustrated by the lack of good skate-parks in Quebec and inspired by the Burnsides and Leesides of this world, these guys took things in charge last year, bought materials and started to build new obstacles on the outdoor skate section at the TAZ. The Project continues to grow with any financial support they can get, so every donations count. Here’s a link to their blog if you want to contribute: http://projet45mtl.blogspot.com/

Just yesterday, Emerica and Agence Royal donated 835$ raised at the Wild in The Streets event on Sunday. In addition to the money raised at the Go Skate Day yesterday, it’s a total of a 1000$ that will be used to buy more materials for another building session within the next few weeks, so expect more stuff to shred at Project 45 in a very near future!
