 ABOUT US
|
White Rock is one of the Lower Mainland's best locations for flatland skimboarding with eight kilometres of sandy beach and warm shallow waters. The progression of the sport in the area has been drastic from simple crusier runs to today's skateboard/snowboard influenced tricks such as Ollies and butters. The Breakneck Crew is proud to have been part of this revolution in White Rock from the beginning. Since 1997, Kyle Lynch has been doing his thing at East Beach experiencing the change from constructing driftwood rails to complex PVC rails, from wood bases with resin to all types of stronger more slick materials.
" Over the past ten years, It has been amazing watching how far the sport has come. I never imagined that the sport would become so popular. I remember when I first began skimming, I was one of the only a few skimboarders on the beach and now I have a full crew of guys just as stoked as I am. "

FEBRUARY 24TH, 2008 "A LITTLE ATTENTION"
|
Scott and Kyle try to take advantage of the warm temps by hitting our home beach, White Rock. Since both are fairly tired from the day before they opt for a pure flatland sesh and get noticed by the sunday afternoon crowd. The crew is looking in fine form with little to no rust showing from the long winter ... this season should be killer.
