This is one of the best
The picture doesn't do Gavs 50 50 on the overhang justice
Street course is 100% fun too
its the near the pavilion on the map, at the end of Poplar Road(to the east) , and West park is close by too and totally original, Maccs powerful skateboard places rule the day.

Here we have a new and redesigned Projekts skatepark.
Eddie Belvedere smashed it caveman style as usual, front feebs down the new round rail, expect this rail to be a center point, its a bigger and better park now.
Ben Rowles backside kickflip lipslide on the flat part of the round rail, this time all the rails are a little higher.
Eddie was game for S.B.T's new invention, the helmet cam, he did it proud, look at the results below.
If you watch this enough times it's almost like being in the film "being John Malkovich," only your stuck in Eddies head..
Lloyd McLeggon hard flips over the box, he's got hella pop
It's nice to see the happy vibe still prevails at Projekts, I guess Manchester's known for its 'friendly' skate scene
Eddie bags up the first gap to quarter clearance, now its your turn, go to Projekts and bag up some hammers yourself.

One day last week I was shopping for groceries, a strange urge told me to bob into the local charity shop, there, stacked in the corner was a pile of old Thrasher magazines. Dated between 1989 an 1994,a rather good find, for real.
Scanning the Thrasher mags an clocking the adverts and old school tricks, it would be wise to show some of the good stuff on Stupid Bloody Tuesday, you know its all about skateboarding, right? So every now and then im going to scan the sick bits an upload them to S.B.T, consider it a history lesson, this of course, is just a blog right? First up is October 1989, above is NYC cover shot wallride (Jeremy Henderson still wearing the knee brace in the link, photgraph-Bill Thomas),and on the right Jim Thiebaud grinding an old school Santa Cruz advert.
When I found this picture on the left of Harold Hunter I thought you better know, it suprised me too, I rate this picture shot by Charlie Samuals 89. We have to the right Tom Knox indy grab's for an Indy advert. When I was a kid this was what skateboarding dreams were made of, indys in pools, an fishtail boards, an Thrasher. Thanks Thrasher October issue 1989, thanks charity shop in Stockport, thanks twenty years ago.
shit I found a different Tom Knox, its rad though.Thanks pictures that are not copyrighted, peace.
I thought about rewriting this, then I thought no! im stupid.
