For 17 years Bay Sixty6 has stood as a landmark for London skating, with numerous epic demos, team trips and comps going down under the Westway flyover at the edge of Notting Hill. Now after almost 2 months of refurbishment that has seen the whole park stripped out, cleaned up and rebuilt courtesy of Nike, Bay Sixty6 is almost ready to open it’s doors once again. Complete with a multi level street course, hydraulic ledge, planter, non technical section and a hipped wooden bowl, it will soon be back as the number 1 undercover spot in London.

Nike have put up a number of ‘skate preview passes’ that will entitle a hand full of people the opportunity to session this brand new park before the doors officially open. For a chance to be the first to experience this new piece of London skate lore with your crew simply share your photos, videos and stories of this legendary park. Visit www.facebook.com/BaySixty6 for details. You must be 18+ to enter.
