White Ledge Shut Down

September 1st, 2008 Tom Kirkby

That’s it, another awesome Newcastle shut down by ‘the man’. On discovery of this today Pete and I started talking about now it’s shut down, who shut it down. Pete’s vote was with Mitza dropping the ice up and ice down. Think different? Put it in the comments.

  1. That’s a shame, I really liked that ledge the time I rode it. Doesn’t really look shut down from what I can see. I’m sure you could figure out a way of unbolting the bench/rack. Good luck guys.

  2. been shut down for a few weeks now, was devestated when we rolled up to see the bench moved and extra bike racks

  3. Damn i’m gutted, used to love that ledge even though it was a lefty, always wanted to grind up it guess i’ll never have the chance eh!
    RIP

  4. I recon someone could still do it backwards on the right half cab out….

  5. Guess thats part of the £200m improvements the Uni is making, futile, if you ask me. Drills & drill bits at the ready and then, maybe, permantently fix them else where. See if they like the hassle of having to drill them out ;-)

  6. all respect to the Mitz as Ice up and Down is dope, but these three are also super sick (most of the guys in ton wont remember these…)

    1. Bobrocker pedal up and down it
    2. Cookie, gap the down ledge to X-Smith on the flat bit
    3. Baz feeble grind to inwards opposite footplant 180 off
    4. Barratt rocket feeble down it

  7. sorry, four, and i meant toon

  8. “2. Cookie, gap the down ledge to X-Smith on the flat bit” was that in nsf3? it was super sick for sure!!
