Part 5 of our look at why we hope you support us.
Celebration.!
Our intention from day 1 was to celebrate as many aspects of Aberdeen that we could whilst also encouraging people to get on a skateboard.
And we’re still going.
From the people:
Annie Lennox, Michael Sheard.
The Places:
Northfield Tower, Co Op building.
The culture:
Scotland the What?
The food and drink:
Bon Accord, butteries.
And so much more.
It’s easy to bash yer city and it’s easy to be cynical about stuff. Everyone does it because nowhere is perfect. But there’s plenty to celebrate in our city. And plenty to be excited about riding a skateboard too!
It’s quite an amazing thing. A kids toy reclaimed and almost repurposed to become something th can be uniquely different to each others person who uses it whilst interacting with the environment around us. What will historians make of it in 1000 years time and will it still be a thing?!
Who knows. But for now we’re still excited to share our designs inspired by Aberdeen and the humble skateboard.
