Towards the end of last year Damd and Africa Skate hosted the first Jam session at Strand Rink.

No prizes, no glory, just a bunch of friends hanging out, skating, chilling and filming

Braai, beers and tricks went down, not to mention the rad street mission after.

(Irvine, Calif. – February 3, 2011) – Today, Maloof Skateboarding announces that Vans – the original action sports footwear company grounded in youth, authenticity and individual style – extends their partnership, returning as the presenting sponsor for the 2011 Maloof Money Cup, the world’s greatest skateboarding event.

"Vans is such an enthusiastic partner in the Maloof Money Cup because it's the one contest that shows skateboarding in its most progressive state with the visibility that top-shelf skateboarding deserves," said Vans' Vice President of Marketing Doug Palladini. "That we leave a new park behind for local skaters to enjoy after the contest is perhaps even more meaningful."

Canarvon is a small dessert town on the diamond route between Kimberley and Cape Town. Just like most dessert towns, it is vulnerable to flooding and with potential water damage comes good drainage ditches. With all this concrete comes a lot of potential skate spots so we thought it best to stop over and handout 200 skateboards to the towns youths so they may set out to explore their ditches and hopefully call us one day to tell us where to come back and play.
