I heard LivinLos and Dodger were looking for somewhere to get their boards out and go gleaming the cube and get on some sick moves in the half pipe while downing a pint of guinness...check out their insane invert beer belly 520...

I would give it until about 3am on the first morning before a couple of pissed up BM's thought they would begin their own version of the Patong Extreme Games with their Waves/Nouvo's...

Yes, used to be hosted in Patong but not for the last 4-5 years I think. It was a good quality event.

Can't think of anywhere you could skate here, not a flat pavement in the country.
