East Perth DIY – Western Australia
Delve into the oddities of this little DIY, situated next to a dead power plant on the banks of a shark infested river, in the worlds most isolated city.
LA HAZA DIY – Tenerife, Canary Islands
I was thinking about it since I first saw that ruined place, almost twelve years ago… but the principal reason was to quit going to skateparks where there is plenty of stupidity and fake people – small places big hells – I started right after the pandemic…

THE TOURNAMENT 2025
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….

This is where we requested permission to build a skatepark.
Gottenheimer DIY – southern Germany – opening session

Getting wet in Garden Eden of Hell – Beast Feast 2025
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…
