Project 45 (DIY Montreal) – art show benefit

Every year, the Projet45 guys try to find fun ideas to raise money for their DIY project and it’s not really easy to keep people interested. Most of the skateboarders out there are often multi-talented; when they are not on wheels, they are playing music, drawing, painting etc. Then came the idea to use the talent of our great concrete soldiers’ by doing an Art Show in Montreal, which could be an excuse to raise money, and have fun with the bros in the meantime.

Baum’s Ramp – Aachen, Germany

“For more Concrete”, that was the slogan for the party last year. The plan was to build a mini with Pudi’s pool coping and have a party for more concrete.
After the party we kept the door open and had the ramp in the bunker and had a place to skate for the winter and we organized some parties and concerts. A skateboard cafe was open one day in the week. Over the winter, after some sessions, we switched some things at the mini for more really high speed lines and more fun!

New concrete: Rattingen Bowl – Germany

A new mini-bowl has just been completed in Rattingen, Germany, about 15 minutes north of Düsseldorf. According to Baum who built this in cooperation with Camp Ramps, the city wanted a “u-miniramp”, but luckily they were talked into something a little more creative that will stand the test of time…

Flowershop DIY – San Francisco

Sorry for the lack of updates lately, the entire Confusion staff was over on the west coast of North America. While searching for a photo, I stumbled upon this Flower Shop session back in 2008.

September Wheels Eastern Europe DIY Tour

Summer had come, which meant for us the oppurtinity for another great Bowl & Pool riding tour! After Basque Country 2009 (West) and Czech Republic in 2010 (East), the decision was easy to go south!

Wayne Webster Q & A

A couple of years ago while on a boat trip in Panama, one of my friends kept raving about his new magic board, a tiny 5’6 quad fish that was his small wave destroyer, shaped by his friend back in Lennox Head. A few years later, I finally got the chance to visit Lennox and enjoy some of the local specialties, such as “The Point”, “Boulders”, “South Wall”, and “Speeds”.

The Beauty – DIY Zürich, Switzerland

After finishing THE BEAST this fall, for all of us it was as clear as a backside air that we needed a winter residence to pass this cold, ugly swiss winter. So please say hello to THE BEAUTY!

As we had finished the first building step, THE BEAUTY was ready for her first action filled night. A “MOTÖRHEAD ONLY” playlist, a bucket full of cheap, heated red wine and a good crew of friends was all we needed for an epic session.
