The Shedavent

Strange Cargo collaborated with young people at ‘The Shed’, a recreation area on Folkestone seafront, to design and create an iconic sculpture that incorporates skate ramps.

The skate park is a vital, free venue for local youth in Folkestone, who have worked tirelessly to fund its development. "It's the only place I can go whenever I need to, without planning or asking permission."

To celebrate the completion of the sculpture and the installation of a new jump box, a skateboard and BMX jam was held as the grand finale of the Pulse project. Strange Cargo partnered with the renowned Fearless Ramps for the installation.

The event drew over 200 competitors and featured live music, a DJ, and well-known skaters serving as judges for the competition.
