The guys over at TLC Bikes dropped us a link to their newest video from a trip to Scotland where they rode Unit 23 and Zone 74 skateparks during their visit! This has a good vibe and some real solid riding. Take a peek!

“A few of us from the TLC team took a trip up to Scotland (from Essex) to meet up with our team rider Paul Friel and ride Unit 23 and Zone 74 skatepark for a long weekend. We did some filming along the way and put this little video together, enjoy!

Zone 74 Skatepark, East Kilbride

March 8, 2015

After the EK Park closed, the scene in East Kilbride in Scotland was in need of a park. Luckily, new owners took over and re-opened as Zone 74 and made some big changes to make it even better than before. Here’s a rad video giving you some insight into how the park got its kick start and its importance to the community. This is how it’s done right!

“As part of my Television course at City Of Glasgow College, I was required to produce a short documentary on something that interested me.

Zone 74 is a brand-new indoor skate park in East Kilbride, Glasgow, Scotland. This documentary follows the closure of the previous ‘EKPark’ and the rebirth of Zone 74.

This is my first serious production at HNC level and have been planning and preparing since December 2014. This documentary was shot over 2 days and edited over 2 days.”

Substance at Zone74

November 29, 2014

Check out this edit the Substance crew put together from a little private session they pulled off at the recently revamped Zone74! Looks like a good time!

“EK Park closed down a few months ago but luckily two lovely ladies bought it. The new owners where nice enough to let us get a couple sessions in before it opened. With a new paint job, fixed ramps and added stunt obstacles its better than ever.
Riders: Craig Sime, Sam Colville, Josh Findlay and Jonny Moffat.”
