Suvilahti DIY skatepark – Helsinki, Finland

We had this small skatepark in the early 90s where we built skateable obstacles. Some neighbors complained about the noise and the city people tore it down. We didn’t have a permit to build anything but that didn’t stop us because there was no other skatepark anywhere near. We ended up building several different parks but every one of those were destroyed by the city of Helsinki….

FRIED IN FRANCE

It’s about time we let you fellow Confuziners know about two new big bowls in the north of France which Belgian company Concrete Flow finished last year during the second half of the season. We spent quite some blood, sweat and tears building them, so spread the word and put these on your list for the next roadtrip.

La Mar Bella skatepark – Barcelona, Spain

We’re almost finished with a new skatepark by the beach in Barcelona, Spain designed with other two more projects in 2009 by a couple architect experts on landscaping and myself as a skateboarder.
