I have been to Stellenbosch… they got some of the world’s best wine there… didn’t know they also skated.

Nice little edit Chris! It’s good to see positive people, doin’ what they love and supporting our sport…It’s cool that your church was so supportive of the skate park/shop. It would be so dope to come down to South Africa sometime and visit! Take care.
