Yo Snapper!

Shanghai is rad, I was over there for a month! Smp isn't worth the mosh at all! All the coping is rusted with weeds growing the cracks in the ground! Plus it is so far from shanghai itself!

Love park ledges are rad, grinds and slides for days, there is also the double set Koston wall rides in pretty sweet. Go to any compounds/apartments and you will find all the marble ledges!

There is the triple kink hubba that nuggets Nollie crooks and bachinsky crooks at the love park ledges!

But in all seriously just eat dumplings! Oh and Carl's Jnr!

Tbags and Evans cheers for the advice. What about shanghai ? I know about the smp park and but overall you reckon it's worth the mish ?

RHW, haven't been to Shanghai, but heading there in April.

There's a spot they call Love Park which looks sick, plus I've seen a bunch of other amazing spots there as well (well they're everywhere in China anyway). Love park in the clip.

Would depend how long you're going for I guess. You can find plenty to skate and do in Guanzhou and Shenzhen, plus they're close. Went to both last year and now we're going back to check out Shanghai and Beijing as well as going back to GZ and SZ.

Like Evanz said Hong Kong is pretty meh for skating and is just more westernised.

Loving the blog t-bags. Looks like you guys are having an amazing time. Keep it coming.

Haha. Snapper, were they playing Beat it on loop for the whole time? Old mate was hating on us when we were there. Think everyone was more interested in us skating than his kid, so he was bummed.

That frontside boneless photo is epic! Gee I miss living in Shanghai. So many amazing spots. Really don't miss the car horns or the 24-7 noise from construction sites. No noise pollution laws in China!

Hope you guys are gonna be in Shanghai for the week long fireworks frenzy during Chinese New Year. You think Sydney fireworks for New Year is rad? Shanghai is nuts!
