DIY skate spots

D.I.Y. Skateboarding

Greififornia Pool – Opening Party – Berlin

The skate scene in Berlin and around was pretty ready and impatient for this event on September 1st. People visited the pool weeks before it was finished. But after five months of work, we were ready to open it to the public on this Friday afternoon.

Freakend 2023 – Port Land DIY – Basel, Switzerland

Port Land DIY family put together a new edition of the Freakend party. Three days of rad skating, music playing, silkscreen printing, snake venom drinking and chicken plucking in one of Switzerland’s most famous DIYs.

Manserama 2023 – Tampere, Finland

Finland’s locals never give up on celebrating our favorite pastime on four wheels. Over the last years, one town took up a really a massive collective effort and created what to me is one of the most lovely “skate towns” in Northern Europe – and that town is Tampere! Their work led to the creation of the infamous Kenneli DIY Bowl, the Pirkanmaan Kaarikoirat ry association, the outdoor bowl of Iso Villunen, and plenty of cool skate spots all around town.

Truken Troef VII – Vorselaar, Belgium

After the previous edition was completely rained out, we could count on beautiful weather this year. (We’re still grateful for the last-minute tent that allowed us to skate a bit last year.)
