The inaugural Revolve Skate Series event has set the bar for competitive skating in the regions…
Following months of close planning, Infinity Skate and the City of Greater Geraldton put on an event to cater to all in the community. Our goal has always been inclusivity in the sport, as a result, we saw over 40 entrants spanning 3 decades skating side by side throughout the day, all wholeheartedly fist-bumping and sharing in the culture of the sport..... Revolve however is more than just a skate competition, local artist Shah Jackey was on hand to bring the very essence of skate culture to the youth of today spraying and etching boards to transform the skate canvas into true works of art.
In the afternoon we had 65Thirty set the stage for the local rock band ‘Double Pluggers’ who were quickly followed by ‘The Decline!’, a Perth based punk band who stole the show, shredding concrete transition and punk music go hand in hand, I’m sure skating alongside a live band has been the secret dreams of many!
A big shout out to all who were involved words never do justice to the ongoing support of the Geraldton community, remember to keep an eye out for the Revolve Skate Series as we revolve, evolve, and grow.
Below are the results from the competition, thanks to everybody who entered and participated, the level of skating was beyond what we expected and made it really hard to judge. The result below are just that, they do not reflect the countless hours, slams, blood and sweat that makes skateboarding what it is.
Thanks to Lotterywest and RioTinto for sponsoring the <14, <18 and 18+, and to Willocks Surf for supporting the Juniors <10 categories with us. Willocks Surf also sponsored the Women’s Open Bowl which was taken home by Sienna Jones for those who didn’t catch it.
