D.I.Y. Skateboarding

Last October 11th, the Tournament took place, organized by Cruzade skateboards and the guys from Ramputene DIY, the venue where it was held. For those of you who know the Tournament, it’s not easy to explain… Pure skating, a lot of hype, tricks and more tricks, laughter and more laughter… The Tournament is held to raise money to buy cement for the DIY shop itself, and above all, to get together and have a great skating session….
Fresh eyes soaked in views from a top painted DIY ramps, molded perfectly by anti-idol hands. There, sprawled out before us, was FDR’s fifteenth annual “Sober vs. Wasted” event.
Cinghial means boar in Piedmont local dialect and I picked that name because they are the real locals of the woods around the bowl…
The Vladimir Film Festival is a fascinating event that attracts people from all around the globe to a small village in Croatia without a lot of advertising…
ESC is different. And even if it might look super pro and organized from the outside, it’s actually pretty DIY believe me! So I decided to ask a few questions to some of the guys “behind the scene” to maybe motivate you to come and check it out next time !
The annual Wildbowl party went down as the official end-of-summer jam, and it was straight-up atomic… skaters showed up not only from all over Italy but also from across Europe.
We first approached the city council with a skate-urbanism approach – we asked for permission to improve a spot we had been riding since the late 1980s: a schoolyard with a nice sidewalk with a perfectly flat surface and behind the school, a thirty-meter-long covered passageway with a concrete floor. This is where we requested permission to build a skatepark.
When I chatted to Tim Hazelton about how he managed to get a slice of paradise with a vert ramp on it, he said that he’d discovered the ramp at Greys online. He purchased it and got a crane driver mate to pick it up and drop it off onto this plot of land he had in Airlie Beach…
The goal was to organize something simple and within our means. So we planned a day full of skating at the spot, stuff for tricks, a flea market, tattoos, drinks, and food — as the foundation for a get-together to celebrate this silly little culture of ours.
I made it to the Bernside Fest this time. My girlfriend and I came a day early, and had a blast enjoying a full Bern experience all week-end long (merci Mischler). Rosengarten promenade, followed by a cocktail at Bellevue five stars hotel for breakfast.
Haters will say another last Beast Feast has been ruined by rain. We say, no one can handle water as well as us. Bold statement you reckon? Well, you should ask the 12,000 person rave to us. They drowned while we were dancing in the mud to Suicide Catdoors…
