It seems there are plans to now transform part of it into a skatepark. $750,000 doesn’t go too far in terms of a skatepark but it should be interesting to see what happens.

Does this mean the stadium is no longer considered a street spot? What are you thoughts?

The-Rise is holding a BMX/MTB street Jam in Montreal Saturday June 9. If your in the area hit this up, meet up spot is the Wallride spot at the Big-O around noon. Spring is in the air, hopefully we’ll be posting up a bunch more of these type of events over the next few months!

Mike Fiz hooked up this dope article and this one of the infamous Montreal Big-O being relocated. It’s pretty amazing that $63,000 is being spent to relocate the legendary Canadian fullpipe/mini. A ton of respect goes to the Saputo family for respecting this spot and it’s history enough to keep it alive.
