National Go Skateboarding Day takes place on June 21st every year and it’s the day for Skateboarders across the globe to celebrate what they’re passionate about most. It all started in 2004 and has been an ongoing holiday where skaters across the world drop everything and just focus on what they love skateboarding.
Team Pain Skate Parks just recently completed a restoration of the 12 year old Orlando Skate Park. Adding a few new obstacles, fresh paint, and a compete revamp of the big bowl in the back end of the park. Complete with brand new tedder stone pool coping and tile, not to mention the strenuous task of demoing the previous hip and reconstructing a brand new hip that opens up the bowl and allows for more flow and lines. Check out the recap above to see some of Orlando’s best tearing up their newly renovated skate park.

Ashton Dohany literally shreds anything you put in front of him. That is why he spends time in the summers at Camp Woodward in Pennsylvania teaching future shredders.
Undercover Skateshop in Ft. Pierce, FL held their 5th bi-monthly mini-ramp contest on June 14th. A bunch of central Florida’s usual suspects, including No Complyriders Ashton Dohany and Nick Murphy made the trip and put on a clinic.
Nick Murphy was one of the first people that I met when I started doing No Comply Skateboard Mag 2 1/2 years ago. Nick is a really rad dude…he is motivated, he has a great attitude, and he shreds. He has talked about wanting to make the move to California for quite a while now, and he is finally doing it. All of your Florida Friends and Family are super stoked for you man. We will miss you, but we support you 100%. Don’t even think about looking back. Cheers! – Nicks.
