Grinding Beyond The Streets

from Bar None · host BFM Media

Despite its "extreme" and athletic nature, skateboarding is seen more as a subculture, especially with the kind of symbiotic influence it has on various urban lifestyle elements. But because it's still a sport, there are skaters out there who pursue the sport for what it is. In this episode of Bar None, we look at how far skateboarding as a sporting endeavour has grown here in the country and the kind of work that's being done to formalise the sport as we look to compete on a regional and global level.
