| Skateboard power on Plaza Bolívar. |
Today skateboarders celebrated their annual World Skateboarders Day with a show of power in numbers. They gathered on Plaza Bolívar and skated north to the the Parque Nacional, filling Ave. Septima with an estimated 5,000 'boarders, stopping other traffic. A skateboarders' Critical Mass - something bicyclists have never accomplished here.

| Super cool skateboarders. |
| Only a small minority of boarders are female, but this girl was going for it on the downhill in the Parque Nacional in Bogotá. |
| Go Skate Day. |
| Skateboard love. |
