CAT IS OUT OF THE SKATER' S BACK PACK ;

BIG DAY OUT 2012 is proud to announce the return of the infamous vert ramp skate show;

An all new 40' wide x 14' high Big Day Out vert skate ramp is being built and will showcase...

"The Tony Hawk BDO Vert Jam" lineup has now been confirmed and we are stoked to announce that joining Tony Hawk will be vertical visionaries: Kevin Staab, Sandro Diaz, Jesse Fritsch and Neal Hendrix.

Also shredding up the Big Day Out ramp are the WC ranked international dream team "The Kings of Vert" featuring Elliot Sloan, Alex Perelson, Renton Millar, Juergen Horwarth and Sam Beckett.

But hold on there's more.. "The Legends of Vert" skate show will feature a unique Australian flavour of champs with Trevor Ward, Adam Luxford, RJ Barbaro, Nathan “Jimmy” Beck and Mick Mullhall (who skated at the very first 1992 Big Day Out twenty years ago ).

The Big Day Out Vert Skate tour is back

The only way to see this skate talent line-up this summer in Australia will be at The Big Day Out in a city near you

It'd be pretty sweet to go but I don't know if I'll be able to go.

The BIG DAY OUT skate show is back! The tour begins in NZ and continues around Australia in Jan/Feb 2012.

It’s 20 years since the first BIG DAY OUT concert was held. Skate rock band the “Village Idiots” was the 1st band on the Skate Stage. Right alongside the stage stood the brand new Coca-Cola Vert ramp, and as the band hit the stage, the skaters dropped in. The legendary Big Day Out Skate show had begun.

20 years later and so begins a new chapter in the long history of amazing BDO skaters, ramps, bands and tours.

The Skate legend himself, Tony Hawk is back for his 3rd BDO tour after 14 years away, and this time he is bringing some of his skate mates along for the ride.

THE TONY HAWK BIG DAY OUT VERT JAM
Definitely not to be missed. Tony Hawk is on the ramp with Kevin Staab, Sandro Dias, Heal Hendrix and Jesse Fritsch in a unique skate show spectacular late in the afternoon at every Big Day Out in NZ and Australia.

THE KINGS OF VERT
Some of the best vert skaters from the current World Cup Skateboard circuit are put together to showcase skateboarding today: Elliot Sloan, Alex Perelson, Sam Beckett, Juergen Howwarth and Renton Millar. Three amazing demos a day at every Big Day Out means they’ll be easy to catch amongst all the other acts.

THE LEGENDS OF VERT
We have included some of our Australian talent with previous BDO Skate Show stars of the past, Nathan Beck, Trevor Ward, Rj Barbaro, Adam Luxford and Micheal Mulhall.
Come down rampside and give the local crew some vocal support - Two BIG demos in each city at all Australian BDO shows.

THE BIG DAY OUT SKATE RAMP
A vert skate ramp, purpose built, for the BIG DAY OUT 2012 tour… a 14ft high x 40ft wide beauty. Nothing like building a brand new perfect ramp to inspire the BDO skaters to go over the top. This ramp promises to be the best BDO Vert ramp ever

THE BIG AIR SHOOTOUT 2012
We held the Australian High Air Championships amongst all the skate show action on the Big Day Out 2001 tour. Jason Ellis won that one in Perth, with Adam Luxford coming in a very close 2nd.

So let’s do it again. This time we will be holding some unique high air comps for the BDO skaters to go for ; most 540’s, Highest ollie, etc. A nice ‘go for it’ ending to the skate show day.
