Shenzhen, Hong Kong & Foshan
October 16th to 26th, 2009
Quiksilver Europe came over to Shenzhen and Macau for an annual China trip. Brian Smith from Shanghai came
over aswell and skated the kicker in Bo'an!
Shenzhen Police Officers were issued more handsome looking police bikes!
Tommy, Quiksilver team manager is multitasking, besides managing the team, he is getting second angles!
Gotta somehow bump into Javi every year! It's always good to see him!
From the west of China!
Early morning Hong Kong... Kungfu Basketball?
Hong Kong is around 400 square miles and holds 7 million people! Pretty dense...
Bamboo is safe here!
Electreecity!
Wo yao shui! Ni ke'yi bu ke'yi gai ni?
Kite...
...the man behind the string!
No western tourists, only locals know about this place, or people who look for skateboarding spots and go to a huge
statue pretty much by accident!
After checking out Foshan and finding a good spot, I ran into a Public Bus which went to immortal Guan Yin! Guan
Yin is a huge Statue represnting the Goddess of Mercy on top of a Mountain in Nanhai! I took a bus there, had to
take a motortaxi up the hill and then skated down. If you are bored, check the Video Clip filmed with my Snap and
Shot Digicam. The Audio is horrible, but since I don't bring my video camera on small trips like these, its nice to
have a little device that can record motion instead of always just shoots single frames!
I was glad to see that Anton was the photographer that came on the Quiksilver trip, always good to see him.
But he just kept beating me in the chinese dice game, right after I taught him how to play... fast learner.
I had a Sunday free for photography and searching spots, so I pointed at the map, checked it out on Google, and
Foshan was my destination of my short day trip... too bad it took 4 hours to get there, which meant I only had like 6
hours to check out this city!
