Earlier this week, a few of us went up to Vancouver to help remove tags from their new skatepark. Around 100 different tags had to be removed before the soft opening on Friday. MC, Doug, Shawn, Rich and the local contract crew spent the better part of two days working on tag removal alone. Here are a few pics from the clean-up effort along with our reward session for helping out.

That ladder is cool. Does the parks truck drive around with it in the trunk? I saw two holes on the deck on Friday, I thought they were for drainage at first, but then it didn’t make sense. Now I know. Thanks guys.
Nice work you guys! Taggers bite!
Look! I’m skating without safety equipment! Am I not a pad goon now? I still am? That hurts.
You guys rule! Thanks for helping us out. The park has been open a week today and so far no new tags! Here’s hoping it stays that way for a while…
