This is Gideon Lyimo, Tanzania's best skateboarder. He didn't compete in the contest because there was no any one to stand against him. At the end I gave him 10000 Tanzania shillings (5 euros) to motivate him to keep skating. I believe he will be countries first pro skater. Shown here with a boneless to the bank. He is also my assistant.

Confusion Day – Don Bosco skate park – Tanzania, Africa

Malinas Machinas 3 – Mechelen, Belgium

This is the third year that we (G’nassis) organized the Malinas Machinas event in Mechelen.

Unheard invitational – Portland, Oregon

Sergej Vutuc was in P-Town to set up a photo exhibition and check out Unheard Distribution’s invitational contest. He took some more “behind the scenes” photos, and he had this to say: “Rad contest…. almost like session… definitely gives special soul to event and great start for future events. The rest you can see and hear in video… one band on loud speakers (slayer) and rad skating. that’s it.”
