This BOWLZILLA 2024 update from Chad Ford just in…
“It was hot in the city at BOWLZILLA Gold Coast. Once you add the humidity from the weather on top of the blazing skating, the whole place was boiling. For the ninth year in a row, BOWLZILLA Gold Coast delivered the Australian Skateboarding Federation’s National Park Skating Championships to a raging audience and a raucous field of competitors. There were big differences this year in both and, as a result, everyone in attendance said it was the best one for years.
Energy levels were high and everyone there was up for the best day’s skating on the Gold Coast all year. So a bit of rain and a lot of humidity did not deter anyone. The crowd stayed through the showers and pitched in to dry the bowl during the breaks in rain and screamed louder for everyone each time the skating took off again. There’s no crowd like a Gold Coast skate crowd.”
Events like BOWLZILLA are only possible because of the goodwill and belief of others. Support from agencies like Experience Gold Coast and the Queensland Government through Tourism and Events Queensland do a lot to bring skaters and fans from far and wide and when that is combined with integral support from skate brands like 187 Killer Pads, Girl’s Skate Gold Coast, Triple 8 Pads, Concrete Lines Skate Shop, Shadow Skateboards and Rattlesnake Motel, the whole community benefits. Even the smallest levels of support do massive things for the community.
“The best skater at any competition is the one having the most fun. Trying to decide who that was, was most definitely the hardest job this year. When you take away stress and attitude and replace it with fun and encouragement you get the best skating. The new levels that were attained by most skaters in every division this year was testament to this. Every single sponsor, supporter, fan and skater that contributed helped to show the best of what BOWLZILLA Gold Coast has been about since we started it way back in 2016. Nine Years? Thank you, every single one of you – judges, MCs, admin, fans, supporters, the community and most importantly the skaters.” Chad Ford; BOWLZILLA – Director.
