Southbank Skatepark

For many years, it was only humans that were allowed on the famous Skate Park on London’s Southbank.

Things changed in 1998 when the first visitors came down and began

almost immediately joining in with what we would consider exclusively Homosapien related activities, such as graffiti, break-dancing and as we see here skateboarding.

It turned out that their larger hands we’re very good at creating a steady

balance which they would also use aerodynamically when using Earth-

made skateboards.

Things soon escalated when in 1992 the first alien entered the British

and Japanese skateboarding competition, winning both within two

weeks of each other.

Controversy soon reared its ugly head however, when it was found out

that the board that the alien used comprised of components not of this

planet.

The skateboarding charter and governing body had to rewrite all

skateboarding legislation following on from this to even out the playing

field for future participants.

This photograph from just a few years ago personifies the extent of just

how strongly the younger aliens have become integrated in human

culture.
