No More Peaking?

by shawnymac | 22 comments

I don’t know if you’ve noticed but there wasn’t a Sneak Peak last week nor will there be one this week. And, I’m not too sure there’ll be more in the future. Some people feel Peak isn’t worth the waste of tape. I say “fuck you!”

Rumor going around, it might be true, I don’t know officially but Peak may be closing it’s gates for good. Thanks to some local wanna-be taggers and dumb ass gangsters. Please, tell me this isn’t true.

liberty-bbqYesterday, I went with Ian and Sammy to the Liberty Boardshop BBQ at Brea skate park and won some wheels and a shirt. Word is Austyn Gillette from Liberty wants to have BBQs at the park at least once a month.

I’m down with that…

Dude wtfff

Shawnymac ~ November 22, 2009 @11:54AM

someone told me that. i’m not naming names. i’m asking you.

All cause of dema people tagging inside of peak….when you go to the park its called tagged with dema….please dema why do you guys have to tag..im nota hater im a big fan but please try to understand that the only reason why its closing down is cause only dema tags in the skatepark..

nate ~ November 22, 2009 @13:07PM

The whole skatepark is tagged with dema,dema,dema,dema,dema,dema

you should really wait for the update nate. sometimes it’s best to hear the facts, not rumors, before you make yourself sound ignorant. it’s cool to call it like it is…but don’t assume it was any particular group of people if you don’t know anything. it could have been kids(not from Dema) helping to promote Dema in the wrong ways…

am i being condescending? yeah, maybe a little. did i help stir this dumb controversy? i guess so…but it’s your fault for not separating fact from fiction even though i clearly stated it was rumor and not anything official.

what you could and should have done was ask more questions.

i agree with shawny.

izzy ~ November 23, 2009 @1:18AM

stop the violence!

dre ~ November 23, 2009 @11:15AM

i really agree with you shawnymac. the people that dont wanna film at peak, certain spots, or wanna give me tickets at peak, i say fuck you too!!!

dre ~ November 23, 2009 @11:20AM

and no sneak peak nor tuesday’s trash is coming this week due to justin’s wrecked car and fucked up attitdes.

Shawnymac ~ November 24, 2009 @18:58PM

@dre man, justin lives relatively far compared to the rest of the dema heads. besides…i think it’s time for YOU to get a car too.

@izzy the violence will never end. yeah, my attitude won’t make it better but i’m a realist. all we can do is prevent it or become bad asses ourselves and fight fire with fire.

but hey…i’m no dr. phil…what do i know?

bryan ~ November 24, 2009 @19:26PM

dam peaks closeing down that fuckn sucks even if i dont live close to peak i still love the park its like the frist park i ever went to n i go there like once a week it holds alot of memories man

Shawnymac ~ November 24, 2009 @19:34PM

@bryan – again…it’s not official meaning it might NOT be closing.

dennis ~ November 25, 2009 @19:21PM

lets get an education.

dennis ~ November 25, 2009 @19:49PM

lots of interesting philosophies and theories here which reflect your personas(in ways you’d never imagine) and personal approaches to life. by the way, one thing we will never encounter, is a superior being. anyways, it may close, sooner or later. at some point, the city will look over salaries(city workers that maintain the joint), damage costs, damage control, the vortex of violence and crime propelled by peak-weed smokers, drinkers, vandals, whatever….and may find it more cost efficient to shut it down. money IS a factor here money money money. all these illegal activities may attract the attention of concerned parents and some of which have complaints that may make it to the city counsil. even littering could shut it down. not everyone follows the rules at peak. everyone’s guilty, but the only crime is getting caught. bummer if it does in fact get shut down. and dema kids do tag and sticker the place, hence the vandalism. they{dema} ARE NOT completely at fault….or it could be rumors to keep visitors of peak in fear/check, and as a result there may be a clean and safe environment at peak for once. as far as im concerned, it’s all a rumor no matter the source. i’ll just contact the city council if i must know……peace, and positive attitudes, amen?

izzy ~ November 29, 2009 @21:41PM

parks closed forever dont go there ;)

dennis ~ November 30, 2009 @1:18AM

it is not

tjizzle2da ~ November 30, 2009 @15:13PM

stop falling for the hype. plus even if it nuked to a fuckin brown bubble heads would still be up there regardless. theres allot shittier tags up there then dema, which is positive.
just go skate foos.

bobmarley ~ December 3, 2009 @18:41PM

i dont think they’re taking down peak. i mean, why would they take it down so soon after they added new stuff to it

Shawnymac ~ December 3, 2009 @22:43PM

YEP! they’re not closing it. hmm…nice conversation. nothing like a small controversy to get people talking.

dennis ~ December 7, 2009 @0:09AM
