Hamburg has always been an epicentre of the german skate scene, but as far as concrete skateparks go we’ve been like 20 years behind the rest of the world for ages. But those days are long gone now and during the last year alone we’ve had some kind of concrete explosion with six decent new parks having been built mostly courtesy of Minus-Ramps
Ever since I saw Pontus Alv’s “Strongest of the Strange” I wanted to build some skate stuff myself. The film blew my mind // great skating, artwork and DIY, but especially the short moaning scene. It sounded all so familiar to me: no time, no spots to skate, no motivation.
The BIG OPENING of this new epic skateboarding and subculture paradise is on August 30th 2014. There will be a sick skate jam / best trick session, a photo exhibition (25 years of skateboarding in Kassel), a few bands, an after show party and of course lots of friendly, crazy, hard partying people from (hopefully) everywhere in the world.
