“Go Skateboarding Day” fell on a Friday this year, so we decided to celebrate with a street barge through the night. A large chunk of the Ottawa skate community assembled at Birling HQ before taking to the streets for a traditional group cruise. There wasn’t a frown in sight! Our final destination was “The King Eddy” – a restaurant/bar in Ottawa’s lively ByWard Market. Several chaotic sessions went down at a few of the city’s staple skate spots before we arrived… where chicken wings and beer acted as our gold medals. The energy of the night, gave a heightened sense of community to an already tight knit family of skateboarders. Long live Skateboarding! Filmed and edited by the talented Jordan Wiens.
