We made a trip out to see the progress on the new skatepark in spring or actually Greenspoint. Things seem to be coming along well. Not too much to see but I thought it would be nice to share a few photos I took. I look forward to riding the concrete waves.

Magnolia skatepark
Well an afternoon trip to magnolia is always relaxing. That Houston traffic dies off and the countryside shows off it beauty. There’s lots of shade here along with a small water park. The reason I’m here today is to scope out the power for our upcoming skateboard contest. I’ve only been here a couple of times before the park was still under construction. Here are a few photos I promised come join us June 10th at 12:30. Bring a few buck to donate to the Magnolia community foundation for entry into the contest. Thanks to Shannon’s street waves for sponsoring the contest along side of the Truthriders.
