well if you're gonna do a proper event you've gotta be willing to put effort in to sort it properly. BUT, lots of people will help you. We haven't had a UK event in sooo fucking long, really, we need one. An event is gonna get more of a turnout also ^_^

event. meetups are..pfft compared to events
get some companys sponsoring it too
if we could get one fully organised and ready, within 20 days, that would be epic. i think we should all go in chat tonight and discuss it?
jack is willing to hold it so if he finds a venue ect.
we organise this event together and it will be epic

ill try my hardest to get there
ill have to ask my dad

yeah im gonna have a look into places to have it when its confirmed ill ask companies to sponsor it and stuff

EDIT: where do you think would be a good place ?

a church

well theres a church near me with like this room its pretty big i was thinking there when do all of you go back to school i got back on the 2nd of september i only got 5 weeks and 4 days whats the date of the saturday your all thinking of

i dont know but i don have ANYTHING planned from except the 20th to the 30th

this all sounds very good and interesting but tbh i don't think its gonna happen with jack at the helm.....(no offense jack) ....your gonna need cash to hire the hall, their not gonna hire it out to somebody under the age of 18 and im guessing everyone's gonna have to chip in to pay for the hall?....nobody here drives in the UK i know of on fbhq...and i dont have a car anymore..........ok we can all get their by train etc, but i just dont think its gonna happen and its gonna be 'all talk'...its too late to sort stuff out now imo. ok...if something could be sorted for the end of the month it could happen, but my experience tells me its not happening......i want to go to a uk meetup and meet all you guys but i think its too late.......we were all standing around scratching our balls waiting for ukr3 which isn't happening......prove me wrong jack.....

look heres where im thinking of its a church hall thing theyd probably let me have it for free if my mum sorted it out itd be cheap plus it has tables and stuff im thinking its too late but it could happen id want at least 10 people i want like 20 but ten would be ok..... And yeah im really thinking its too late im thinking around november time

its got to be august imo...novembers far too late...

yeah but itll be really tight id really like to have one soon lets find a date thats good for all of us

what about a weekend in early-mid september if not august?
Find out prices ASAP jack, and then we can work this out. UKR3 wont happen, so, if we can do this, lets list a bunch of companies, get on them for sponsoring and such, and sort out advertising here, fbc, ffi, fbweekly, fbtv, unitefingerboarding, youtube.. that should get the word out ^_^

If its a few quid to get in, then, that should be all good for everyone

ill probably be able to get it for free if not itll be cheap, When we have a date well ask companies

i go back on the 1st september, turns out i get back home on the sunday :O
im thinking mid september, like, a saturday or sunday of one weekend

exactly what im thinking

That would be fucking awesome jack if this all happened If you are actually gonna do the event get some company sponsors for ramps ect

Would be awesome :L

if i get driven there,ill bring a shit load of ramps

well depends how many people i get confiremed coming whod be able to come mid agust and yeah everyone would have to bring ramps and louis and yeah ill ask brr ill have a game of skate there and who wins gets a pize and put names in the hat etc

how about we just get little sponsors,dont pre-long it, have a cheap venue,fingerboard for fun,give a lil prize to the contest winners?

might as well ask companies for some sponsor prizes, can't hurt to try

get me or blosom to do it, as, no offence, but, they're more likely to give prizes to an older person, as they got scammed a lot with sponsoring events that didn't actually happen, so, yea..

Have a game of skate and a contest with 1 minute runs or something, that'd be sooo fun (Y)

nah imma ask brr and other good compnaies like decks companies and stuff and yeah about the rest lol

ill get it delivered to my dad or one of you two

im thinking, games of skate, not 1 on 1 because they go on forever
groups of 5
say 15 people are there, 3 groups of 5, winner from each group goes into a 3 person final

and 1 minute runs,

and best trick



also if we get alot of prizes we could do a styleathon or something, like, a kickflip or something

sick,we can do what they do in shit hassens and fast fingers : a game of skate on the park

some companies to ask:

blackriver
fbs
creekwood
ex tape
redemption
lowpro? (rafi's going over there so if they say yes he could pick up the prizes while he's there, or are you going after the holidays rafi?)
mitt
close up
any other companys

Askk no comply, winkler wheels and wheel companies

I would say flatface but they wouldnt give it free unless the event was huge
and is this an fbhq only thing as that would be cool, you dont want loads of random people that dont even fb turn up :L
