Space for Everyone: Quell + NYCSP Spend the Day at 2nd Nature

Over the year, the spaces created by NYCSP have become invaluable to the NYC skateboarding community. They have become places for people to meet their new best friends, to try things that scare them, to feel comfortable being themselves, to feel confident in a skate park and most importantly, to have fun.

2nd Nature Skatepark is about 1 1/2 hours north of Williamsburg, Brooklyn and kind of hard to get to without a car. It’s been our dream to bring as many folks as possible up there, for free, for a while now. Thanks to Nike SB, we were able to rent a bus from OvRride, and make that happen!

After skating we watched Carving Space, a short documentary about Queer Skateboarding by Annie Dean-Ganek. You can watch the trailer here.

Check out our photos from the event below

So stoked watching so many folks learning how to skate!

Never underestimate the power of holding your friends hand.

While the clinic was going, everyone else was free to skate and have fun!

Housewife Skateboards had a strong showing at the bowl!

After the emotional documentary screening… we raffled!
