skate extreme in newport , wales burns down.

[welsh denny]

after more than a decade of existence , skate extreme is no more. seems a fire started in the early hours and its now completly gone. end of era for south wales and leaves a big gap next winter when the harsh weather moves in.

Bollocks - shame to hear that - was hoping to try the place out this spring / summer

Maybe it'll get rebuilt bigger and better

real shame rode there quite a bit a few years ago a bit dingy in places but a good place to ride and a good vibe most of the time.


RIP Newport
