Another Miniramp in Beijing(北京的新miniramp)


之前有给大家介绍那个展览馆里的临时miniramp,现在展览结束,那个miniramp也和我们说拜拜了。不过旧的不去新的不来,我的朋友Eli在北京国展附近又新修了一个miniramp,在一个废旧的厂房里,室内!!而且无论从设计到制作还是材料都是我在国内见过的最好的一个!千真万确!今天玩了一个下午,真舍不得走啊。不过现在这个miniramp存放的地方因为空间很小,所以还没有对外开放。(阅读全文查看更多照片)
My friend Eli build a perfect miniramp in Beijing(near by World Trade Center), That's the best one I have ever seen in China, I promise! perfect design, perfect surface and perfect indoor!(Please continue reading for more photos)
下午有六七个朋友在一起玩
I am skating with some friend this afternoon. I love the miniramp so much!


Nathen,还记得上次Switch碗池比赛的冠军么?他miniramp也很了得,照片上左一就是miniramp得主人啦

换个角度看看


再看看这半边


是不是有冲动要滑一下啦?


今天还见到了老朋友Jocko(美国滑板的超级oldschool,作家,写过《the answer is never》一书,写的是美国滑板的历史),上次见他是05年Danny Way飞长城的时候了。现在他也搬来北京定居了,牛逼。
I am also meet Jocko Weyland there.


最后感慨一下,今天经过方庄了... ...明白了吧

    man major faggotry... anywhere else to sesh mini? woodward looks sweet but how does a premier facility like that open for the weekends only?

  • jamie

    MATE that mini is long gone your best bet for mini in beijing is woodward but be prepared for a long bus ride or taxi

  • Roy

    Just arrived in beijing from sydney today, the mini looks buttery. Is this thing open to the public? id love to skate it.

  • jamie

    hi Thomas,

    I know that one, that's a very old park in Beijing. the design is not that good.

    Hey man,
    Don't know if you guys are aware of this but there is a small skatepark near the Airport Expressway next to a compound called 'Beijing Riviera' (villas and apartment area). It has a vert (~12 foot?) halfpipe, a small bowl, a funbox and a grinding pipe. You guys interested in knowing this place? Reply

    i just started skating back in florida and i moved to BeiJing about a week ago. I really want to continue this amazing sport but i'm guessing there really aren't any skateparks in Beijing that teach? if anyone want to teach me, email me please.

    Hey,

    I've been living in China (Henan) about 8 months now and I am itching to find people to skate with. I come to Beijing a lot, but I don't know any spots. Can you help me out? I'd love to skate that mini--looks sick! I will be in Beijing next week please hit me up!

    Hey Ya'll. The ramp is a semi private ramp owned and operated by Kagen and Independent. We can't keep it open all the time, as the space itself is private and we have to respect the guy's property who allows us to keep our very sick indoor location. That being said, there will be some events popping up this spring that will allow people to ride and hopefully win some free Independent stuff- keep posted and keep skating

  • Dan

    Hey again...
    I'm from Austin, Texas; and I'll be here until may. But still looking for a ramp to cruise on to beat the cold. Thanks for your help man, and keep in touch.

  • Alex

    deaaaam!!!!!.....it'll be cool if owner'd hide keys to ramp somewhere near and only homies could get there).....i've skated it on last saturday.....and now still dreamin about it....

  • admin

    be cool, Alex
    that's a private place for sure. but they are planning some events there for public in the future.

  • Alex

    why ramp doesn't open always?! i mean somebody gotta keys and only he could skate it whenever he wants........it's like becomming not free and not public ramp.....so why the fuck is it still posted at here?! or just tell the hours it's open.....whatever.

  • admin

    hi,Dan
    where r you from? the guy wear a black hat above is also named Dan 🙂
    the mini is not open everyday and everybody now, but I think you can find some skaters in "WangFuJing" church or "Anzhen Hualian", there are many skaters in Beijing, but Beijing is tooo biiig! hope you find them soon.
    by the way, how long will you stay in Beijing?

  • Dan
