Saturday, October 23, 2010 @ SkateFest is Over
Yeah, skatefest this year was'nt that great, mainly because
1. There were no casterboarders there besides us & a few others
2. Another team was supposed to come, came a little late, so we couldn't film much, well but it's all cool! :)
We do have some footage, but was deleted due to some camera issues, so only 1 clip was salvaged... So no footy... but the event wasn't all that great anyways, so it's cool
So maybe next time, & we are probably going to do a collab video with RipStikSIN
Yeah those guys are rad! Go check em' out

Remember Alvin said that he would want to restart TeamParkEast, well so much for that, well he has filmed his own video (Links at the end) So he may consider bringing back TeamParkEast with some new members & some of the same members, so it might be coming really soon... who knows?

Saturday, January 16, 2010 @ Updates, REALLY UPDATES
Firstly, Happy New Year! I know it's a little late to be saying this, but what the heck, so we have'nt been updating for a really long time, alot of things have happened, firstly was the skatefest got postponed! :( Yup, we were sad when we heard the news as well, really really sad... Suppose to meet SwaveClaws & everything but could not...
And as for Video #7, well alot has happened, Alvin & Mike are now skating, Christopher not fully recovered from his accident, Joshua & Jonathan have not been practicing, we have not been meeting up & practicing new tricks & stuff yet, but Alvin says he will try to get the video done ASAP, so much for reaching Video #15 by the end of 2009...
Well that's pretty much so far, just be patient for awhile, Video #7 will be up before the end of 2010... I know long way, we probably may not even do it, casterboarding is no longer an interest here, it's really hard to explain everything... just slowly wait... sorry guys... :(
Thursday, December 10, 2009 @ UPDATES
OMG, so sorry for the lack of updates for a few weeks, we have been really neglecting TeamParkEast, many things have happened, TeamParkEast may have to be disbanded, it's a in the thought thing, anyways we will be heading to skatefest tonight, can't wait! We have been waiting for this for awhile already, so hope to get some pictures & videos tonight!
Sunday, November 15, 2009 @ More Updates
Hey guys, it's been awhile, sorry for the lack of updates, just here to say that video #7 will not be done anytime soon, we are still rather busy and have not been practicing or anything, our next event will be the Skatefest, which is coming up real soon, so sorry guys! Just be patient, our new video will be out real soon!
Friday, October 16, 2009 @ Updates
Hey everyone! Sorry for not updating, so anyways nothing happened really, most of our exams are finished, so video #7 should be on it's way, but Christopher got hit by a car, and is in a cast for 2 months, so he may or may not be featured, but Joshua, Jonathan, Mike and Alvin should most probably be in video #7, so just wait for it, it should be out maybe at the end of the month, heading to a skatepark (to film) in about 2 weeks time (we have always been going to skateparks, just that we go seperately, like with our friends and stuff, and really never bring our own cameras, so this time we will go together to flim :D) so video #7 should be on its way, wait for it! :D
P.S. GO TO OUR WEBSITE!!!

Monday, September 21, 2009 @ Video #6
What's up guys! Video #6 is up! Let's just say it ain't so good, as Jonathan just came back so we could'nt let him do much stuff yet, and the rest of us have'nt really learned any new tricks yet, so it's bad, and plus our exams are coming so we can't really practice, but once it is over, we will be heading to skateparks and stuff to do video #7 and the upcoming videos, so for now, just enjoy video #6!

Thursday, September 17, 2009 @ FOUND! Where to buy a RipStik G!
OK guys, if you notice, streetwave only sells RipStik Classic and RipStik DLX, but that day Alvin was at a skateshop and next to the shop, was a bike shop and they sell RipStik 'G' and the limited edition RipStik Classic, which is with the designs on it, so it is pretty cool, as they have RipStik Gs! They are probably the only shop in Singapore that sells it (we think) so you can check them out, they have 2 outlets, the one where Alvin saw the RipStik 'G' is at Bukit Timah Road, it's just maybe a 10 min drive after Cathay Cineleisure, so ain't that far, the Shop is called 'BikeHaus' shop website is below
Additional Info:
Shop Name: BikeHaus
Location: 2 locations, the one with RipStik G is at 785 Bukit Timah Road

Hi guys! Sorry for not updating for a long time, anyways just wanted to let you guys know that we will start video #6 on friday and video #7 after our exams, but after we do video #6, we will also do tutorials and other videos as well so it should be up soon!
Thursday, September 10, 2009 @ New Videos
Hi guys! Sorry for not updating, anyways we will probably not do any videos for the time being (by videos we mean like the swaveboard video series) but we maybe doing tutorials and other videos, we have one which we may do called "TeamParkEast: Showing you around ParkEast", the title will be subjected to changes, but basically one of our riders will be showing you guys around ParkEast, so yeah, and once we have more tricks, we will do video #6, we also went to the East Coast Skatepark and got a some footy there, but we will use that in video #7, we will also be doing tutorials, like how to ride, how to caveman, and other tricks!
Friday, September 4, 2009 @ Skatefest #2

Saturday, August 22, 2009 @ Upcoming Videos
Ok just wanted to let everyone know that video #6 will be up pretty soon, and most probably for most of the videos after video #7, we will be doing it skateparks or any new locations, but only maybe IF we ever reach video #15 and more, which should be around the December holidays, those are the videos that will be more in skateparks or other locations, cause December holidays is the time we are free (DUH!) so if we ever reach that far we will do it in new locations, Park East is getting kinda boring... :) But some videos will still be at Park East, it all depends on our time, so yeah! And not to worry, we will also be uploading other videos like tutorials and any other video, as long as it's related to TeamParkEast, but those videos will most probably be after video #10, so yeah, we have tons of tutorials to teach you guys! So wait for all of these upcoming videos!

Saturday, August 15, 2009 @ MAssive Productions Logo
Ok guys! We have designed a new logo for MAssive Productions, but it is very simple as it is designed with Windows Paint so it still does not look very fanciful or decorative yet, but this is it... for now, check it out! But we kind of like the way the logo is styled, so if you want to edit it, use this as the median but just do it more decoratively, give us some feedback on how you think it is!
Friday, August 7, 2009 @ MAssive Productions
OK everyone, we have just realised that the production team at the start of our videos needs a... LOGO!!! So if possible, try and design a new logo and show it to us and if it's good enough we will use it as our new MAssive Productions logo, so please support and design a new awesome logo!
@ Our Official Website!
Hi guys! Ok just wanted to let everyone know that we have a new WEBSITE!!! This blog was not actually our official website, as if it was the tagboard would had been full of spams so we did not tell it to anyone, but we finally created our official website, so check it out! This blog will only be known to ParkEast members, it's like more for updates then a website, but anyways our website will be updated often and we won't neglect the blog either, feel free to check back both often for the latest news and updates!

@ Can't see the older posts
Ok everyone, we just realised that apparently you can't see the old posts, so we are trying to fix the problem now, once it's done we will post it and let you guys know how to view it
Monday, August 3, 2009 @ Update
Hi guys! Sorry for not updating our blogsite for quite awhile, anyways, video #5 will not be ready anytime soon, we have not really learned any new tricks yet so it may take awhile, but in the meantime to kill your boredom, you can check out Alvin's Youtube account, he has been uploading other random swaveboard videos, so you can check those out, there are 2 videos so far, links at the end, so check it out and wait for video #5, sorry for the wait, but if we really can't learn any new tricks, we will maybe repeat some tricks and also maybe find new locations to try out new tricks!

@ Timber Wolf Xtreem Casterboard
So hi guys! I see quite a number have taken a liking to the new Timber Wolf Xtreem Casterboard, it is a really awesome board, but for those non-skaters but casterboarders, do take into consideration that the Timber Wolf Xtreem Casterboard is built with a skateboard deck, so here are some things to take note:
If you do not skate, try riding a curb with that, it will feel alot different as it is a skateboard, where the normal casterboards are not, so it may feel different and you may not be used to it
So but for those who want to try it out even if you are'nt a skater, by all means go ahead! It's a cool new board, different from the normal casterboard, so go check it out, and we have found a video for these new boards, links at the end of the post!

@ Timber Wolf Xtreem Casterboard Information
Ok, hi everyone! So we have been browsing through the internet and guess what we found? It was on Caster Addicts and we watched the new featured video with this new board in it, we went to the website provided in the description and found a whole new kind of casterboard, for skaters and casterboarders out there, this could be it...
It's called the "Timber Wolf Xtreem Casterboard" and "Xtreem" is not misspelled, it's spelled that way, so anyway in the bottom post you can see how it looks like, here are some specs:
Patent Pending Rock & Roll Caster DesignMost Caster Boards have a front and a back and a caster axis mounted at an acute angle in respect to them. This means you can only propel the board in one direction
Not so with the XtreeM, it has no front and no back and the caster axis is FREE to ROCK so you are FREE to Roll in either direction.
This means that you can do reverts, shuvits, fakies etc... without having to fight the inclination of the casters and then you can speed off in the new orientation.
This whole new design is called "The Rock and Roll"
There is a video but only on the site, apparently what it means that normal casterboards can only go 1 side as the front has this thing that is mounted at an 45 degree angle, where this board can go in both directions and works exactly liek a casterboard, so we figured it was pretty cool, you can buy it, links will be given at the end of the post, so go check out this awesome new board, we will update as soon as we get the latest info

Hi guys! It has been awhile, sry for not updating, video#5 may take awhile, as Jonathan is sick, Joshua is on holiday, and the rest of us have not learned any new tricks yet, so it may take awhile, sorry... :(
@ Pocket Pros Ripstik FingerBoards & Ripstik AIR
Hey everyone! Just wanted to tell everybody that the Ripstik AIR and the Ripstik FingerBoards are out, but unfortunately they only ship within the USA, so unless you know anybody who lives in the USA, you can ask them to buy it for you before shipping it over to you in Singapore, or any other country that you live in, so here is the link to buy it

Hey everyone! Just wanted to tell everybody that the new Elite swaveboards are out, and there a load of new designs, but they cost like $149! And the main difference is that the wheels are now Abec 7, and they increased the price by like $50, so kind of not worth it, if you buy a waveboard or ripstik online, it costs even cheaper then that, so maybe buying a new swaveboard now is kind of a bad idea...

Hi guys! We are sadly to inform everyone that the making of video #4 may take some time, we suppose to film it today, edit and upload it 2moro, however the weather has not been to our favour, so it may take awhile, as we must find a suitable day when it is not raining and we go make the video, so hopefully we can get it done ASAP :)
Wednesday, June 24, 2009 @ No Spamming the Tagboard
Hey everyone, it has come to our attention that some of you TeamParkEast members are like typing in random things on the Tagboard, pls note that this is our blog, and not just your blog, so do not start posting things like your name is "hi" and you type a message "hi", or anything like that, but if you put your name and say things like "Hello" then it is fine. And we just want to know who was the one that out his/her name as "zac and nigel" and posted a comment on the tagboard? So just pls stop spamming our tagboard

And the Waveboard LX only costs about S$116 so once those new "carbon fibre" Swaveboards come out, which cost S$149, it's time to get Ripstiks or Waveboards, Ripstik AIR and Waveboard LX are 2 boards you can consider, swaveboards are way too costly already, but if you want to buy a Ripstik Classic, NEVER EVER buy it in Singapore, they cost S$240, where if you buy it online it is about S$119, SO DO NOT BE STUPID AS TOO BUY IT IN SINGAPORE, so go check out these new boards to consider when swaveboards become too overpriced
Here are some links
http://www.ripstikusa.com/http://www.streetsurfing.com/index.php?cookies_detected=1http://www.streetsurfing.com/cart/ (Here you can buy all the different Waveboards, including the LX!)
And here are our videos

Also forget to mention that
LX stands for "
Light
Xtreme"
@ Waveboard LX Updates
Hey everyone! New updates on the waveboard LX (wow, why are we so hyped up about the waveboard LX?) Here is the official Waveboard LX website
http://www.streetsurfing.com/us/products/wavelx.htmlThe Wave LX
Wider platform for better stability
New light Xtreme design
Enhanced performance
Easier carving
Abec 5 bearings
After you go to the site, there will be a button that says "BUY NOW" at the bottom, click it, and you will get linked to this
http://www.streetsurfing.com/cart/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=2Which is the link given in the other post regarding the Waveboard LX
@ Theft Part 2
Ok update, Alvin just got his board, and guess what? The manager says that the cleaner took it, but this morning, they said that, a
cleaner found it, contradicting much? So now, they are 2 possibilities, 1. The cleaner really took it, and then did not want it, hid it somewhere, told the guard manager, that he/she found it
2. Manager pushing the blame to the cleaner
So, now we still do not know the culprit, just to all fellow TeamParkEast team members and all other residents of Park East,
DO NOT LEAVE YOUR BELONGINGS UNATTENDED and always take your stuff wherever you go.
@ Theft
Ok, even though it was just a day, alot of things happened, ok, so in about late afternoon, we were making video #3, Alvin left his swaveboard somewhere and we went somewhere, which was pretty near, and made the video #3, but later about 3 - 4pm, the swaveboard went missing, I'm guna skip the details, about the search who we suspected, but this morning, the guard manager went to his house, and told his father that, yesterday at 6.30pm, a cleaner found his board at lobby 2, he only said
LOBBY 2, no details, and then after that it was given to the manager, and he can claim it at 8.45am, however, at 6.30pm we were all still down and we saw no cleaners around, unless is carpark, but however at 4pm when we searching, we asked the manager, he was like saying "no, no I never see anything", when Mike tried to go in, the manager told him, "Hey! Don't come in" So we begin suspecting him, and so actually the guard manager made up a story saying they found the swaveboard, when actually it was with the manager all along, unless they hid it like how they hid Colin's bike before, but higher chance it was with the
manager all along...
Sunday, June 14, 2009 @ Buy the Waveboard LX
Ok guys I found it! I do not know where it ships too or all that other stuff, but here is the link to where you can buy it, and it is trustworthy, it's the street surfing website
http://www.streetsurfing.com/cart/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=2Go purchase it if you want to!
@ Waveboard LX
Waveboard LX Black (It's the same as the other post)
Waveboard LX Grey (The one that Jason Johnston has)
Waveboard LX Blue (Some other colour)
Ok here are some more pics of the waveboard LX, different colours
I think you all can purchase it already, I'm trying to find a online store, then you guys can go purchase it
Here are some facts about the Waveboard LX:
a) It's called the Waveboard LX
b) It's weight is 2,1KG like the Ripstik AIR
c) It's casters spin 360°, but Ripstik AIR is spring loaded, easier to land tricks
d) You already can buy it in Germany for 129€ (Which I think it's about S$134)
@
Ok hi everybody! Today we start work for video #3!!! Ok but other then that here are some other news, the board that Jason Johnston used at the skatefest is called the "Waveboard LX"
Above is the picture of the Waveboard LX found on Google Image pretty cool right? And here is a video link to see it in action, unfortunately, at the Skatefest, we didnt take any videos of Jason, otherwise we would have uploaded on youtube too, but all well, here is the video link, this is a short post sadly :( but nvm, just go watch the video, it's really cool!!!
Enjoy!

Hi there again people!!! Alot has happened the past week, well first things first... Ok so on friday, guess what,
WE FINALLY GOT OUR SHIRTS!!! And they are pretty cool, very comfortable too :D, and the next big thing, is that Benjamin invited us to some SkateFest, held by SkateSports at the Tampines Millenium Rink! Super fun, TeamParkEast was like pwning in every event, at least every event, we were in Top 3!!! And the best of all is that Jonathan won the grand prize... A WAVEBOARD!!! SUPER COOL!!! It's white in colour and its really awesome!!! And we also got to meet some streetsurfing pro, and we got to talk to him, and he was really cool, he did all the cool tricks, for everyone, and the Skaters were pretty cool too, but the Street Surfer was really cool! His name is "Jason Johnston", go google search him, and click the first one, it said that he is from some GROM Team, and he was going to SkateFest, and the next day, conducting some workshop at Big Splash, so anyways thats about it, so now we are finally ready to start video #3, we are filming on Monday at 10am, just for anybody who does not know, so yeah thats that, I will try to upload pics and vids of our shirts and the SkateFest Event, in the next post, cya!
Tuesday, June 2, 2009 @ Shirt Designs

Vote at the tag board, by just putting yr name and material u prefer, so go vote now! And video #3 is still in the making, taking quite awhile, but thats coz we are trying to make it the best one yet, so wait for it, for now JUST GO VOTE!!!

Sorry for not updating the blog for awhile, first of all video #2 is finally up! Here is the link:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IjORR_CLVXw watch it and post comments! It does look kinda boring, the tricks are pretty simple, well its not easy to think of a new trick every week, so pls deal with it for awhile, we are really trying hard, that's about it, and btw we are going to make T-Shirts for our team, templates have already been made, but we are still deciding to have it in grey or black, Singapore has recently been very hot, so wearing black would be really tiring if we were to ride under the sun or in skateparks, so we are thinking grey, but u can post yr opinions on the tagboard, pls vote for the colour of yr choice! Thx!!!
Saturday, May 23, 2009 @
Ok just to let everyone know, we will be putting a tagboard and a new skin pretty soon, so just stay calm ok? So video #2 will have to get started pretty soon, but we are thinking of making a tutorial video first to show people how to ride the swaveboard, so we are still thinking but most probably we will make the tutorial video first, that's about it for today pretty boring post :)
Friday, May 22, 2009 @
Well, so far our new video series on youtube has been proved quite a success but we won't start slacking or anything, but we will be making a lot of new videos and other tutorial and other videos, so pls visit our channel

And he is guna get one during the weekend, and can start practicing new tricks for the 2nd video! And everyone is also practicing really hard for the second video! So it will be quite a smash! (Hopefully) So that is about it!
