872 DIY bowl project – France

DIY spot in France (Thouars in Deux-Sevres). This is the 872 DIY bowl project, just near a bridge which was built by Gustave Eiffel company in 1872.

DIY Szaber Bowl – Poland

It was January 2014, together with my friend after a few beers we decided to build a concrete pool in the heart of Warsaw under the bridge where I was previously involved with POWISLE DIY project. We were pissed off because of many things like the fact diy culture is still not that big in Poland, all the bowls at the parks are really bad and mellow and don’t even have good coping

Plymouth DIY – England

The spot is called Plymouth DIY. We decided to build something really steep and whippy because every skatepark around here is really small and mellow.

Ottone Bowl DIY – Lodi, Italy

Two years ago I started digging a pool in my town Lodi. The city authorized the skate association to do that but after a while I found asbestos in the dirt.. it’s not toxic but really harmful if you inhale it. I don’t know if you have that shit where you live, but it’s pretty big in Italy though. Somebody hid the asbestos back in the day. I quit with that. I wasted six hundred euros…

Ratz Secret DIY spot – Slovakia

The place is located in Senica in western Slovakia. The situation with skateboarding in Senica is completely fucked up and skateboarding there is only a fucking business.

DIY in Flémalle – Bowl des Trixhes – Belgium

5 years ago, with the help of the Brusk crew, my friends David, Yan and I had the opportunity to participate in the construction of our own dreampark, consisting primarily of a clover-shaped, 7 feet deep pool.

An afternoon at Creekside DIY – Australia

The light was gone, the mozzies were totally taking over and the skaters were no longer in charge! And that’s an afternoon at Creekside. Fun had by all.

Joensuu DIY – Finland

This place is situated in Joensuu which is a small city in eastern Finland. This DIY spot is actually a street takeover.
