DC
SOUTH EAST ASIA TOUR 2013
07
August 2013, Jakarta – DC
Shoes announced today the highly anticipated 2013 South East Asia
Tour. The tour spanning across three different countries, will bring
DC’s world-renowned skate team to Philippines, Singapore, and
Indonesia. On the tour, South East Asia skate fans will have the
chance to get an up close and personal DC skateboarding experience
through instore signings and skateboarding demonstrations. One
highlight of this year’s tour is the inclusion of DC’s Nyjah
Huston, who recently won ESPN’s Action Sports Athlete Of The Year
award. Also joining Nyjah will be Wes Kremer, Matt Miller, Cyril
Jackson, Tommy Fynn and Jake Hayes.
This
tour will have a unique element in each city for the DC team. In
Manila, Philippines, a custom made park has been built inside South
East Asia’s largest shopping mall, the SM Mall of Asia. In
Singapore, the DC team will be doing a demo at Somerset Skatepark
which is situated only a short stroll from the world famous shopping
strip of Orchard Road. In Jakarta the demo will take place at Green
Skatepark, an expansive recreational park in Jakarta’s east.
Each
stop will also include a meet and greet session with the DC team at
one of DC’s flagship stores where fans will get an opportunity to
have photos with the pros, receive autographed memorabilia and have a
chance to win some great prizes.
Anticipating
the DC SEA TOUR 2013, Sammy Gosling, DC South East Asia Marketing
Executive stated, “Skateboarding in South East Asia is taking off
and the skate community is becoming increasingly global due to social
media. The local skate communities follow the global athletes such
as Nyjah Huston online so it is great for them to get an opportunity
to mingle with them in the flesh. By continuing to invest in
the development of skateboarding in the region we hope to see a
skater from South East Asia rise to the top of the world’s
skateboard rankings in the future.
