March 29, 2014 – Yup, I’m including this in my blog post series. I think there’s a growing community of skateboarders in Baguio. I saw these skaters for the 2nd time here at Wright Park, they do skateboarding and grinding on custom made rail. They brought their own rail and placed it here at the smooth pavement of Wright Park.
There are security guards inside the park, and I guess they are playing the xtreme sport legally.. I just wish that we can have this same treatment here in Manila, where parks are open to the public and you can do skate boarding or inline skating without any guards chasing you and saying that is “bawal yan dito”
I showed this sport to my son, because he wants to do skateboarding when he grows up. During my teens, I tried skateboarding for a shortwhile by borrowing skateboard from a friend, but then I shifted my sport to aggressive inline skating, because there are lots of access in buying inline skates aka rollerblades during the late 90’s.
