The city of Okayama, Japan has just announced that they will be closing down ASPO skatepark, home to talented skaters such as Soichiro Kanashima, Yuto Goto, Chihiro Azuma, and many others.
I’m sure you’ve seen the park in many of the edits featuring these skaters.
This skatepark has been the training ground for many Japanese skaters dreaming to go international, and without this skatepark, the future of the Japanese rolling scene will be badly influenced.
Many skaters, bmxers and boarders have come together in Japan to think of ways to save the skatepark, including Soichiro.
They are prepareing a petition to be signed. I will post them up as soon as they are ready. Please take just a minute of your time to sign the petition.
