Coming this Saturday and Sunday, in Düsseldorf, Germany is the 4th year of BEST OF BOTH. Two different bowls, the mellower, but recently amped up FACTORY BOWL(with a new cradle, loveseat, and extra bowl), and the upstairs backyard style OMSA POOL!
Confusion Magazine surf videographer Sean Wood was down in Mexico this summer surfing and filming both paddle in and tow-in surfing. This edit is all machine assisted tow-ins. Not the most soulful way to surf, but hey, it gets the job done when it’s too big to paddle in. Here’s the edit of the Motorhead’s pulling in to some of Mexico’s best beach breaks.
Pudi made some new Pool Coping for a DIY Project in Köln, Germany

Marginal Way started as a one ghetto little quarter pipe against the wall under Highway 99. It was one of the only covered spots to skate in Seattle. Bums and garbage was pretty much all there was before the creation of Marginal Way, as the people came together the freeway under pass diy spot started to grow.
The session at the brand new D.I.Y spot at the Mellowpark in Berlin was amazing. Lot’s of riders from all ages and all over Europe came together to skate this epic place. Not even a heavy dump could stop the session. Free drinks and BBQ made the day perfect! Thanks to Lenni, Jan and all the other locals that put so much effort, love and time into this outstanding project! – Asti
A year ago, we started with a small concrete quarter pipe. We didn’t know how long it would stay there, so we were really happy with our little spot. After a while, we built up a wobble and a china bank and still, no one teared it down. So we went big and built a corner, complete with Pudi’s Pool Coping.

The best way not get your DIY project busted by the government is not to do it in the middle of the city under a bridge, but to do it in the middle of the woods near a small town, and don’t tell anyone where it is…
I was writing for months with Arne (Boardstein) and he told me that they were working on rebuilding the old “under the bridge” park in Heidelberg, Germany. I was thinking to go there to make a few photos, because it’s so close to Heilbronn where I live, and Heidelberg is a sweet green quiet town.
