With an unbelievably old, ripped up, Motörhead shirt on, the sickest pair of leather boots you’ve ever seen, a cig in one hand and an archaic piece of technology in the other, comes Olivia Jaffe. Like a spider carefully waiting for the moment to strike, often not disrupting the scene, just hanging in there tight till the time comes, she shoots to kill… dig into her photos and dive head-first into a rock and roll universe you only ever dreamed of before.
A night before the tour I had a dream: Christian Hosoi was sitting on my balcony and eating bananas with peanut butter. I bought that peanut butter for that upcoming tour. I awoke in shock. I was scared. I checked and the huge jar of peanut butter was still waiting for me. What a relief!

Many of the clips I filmed have unfortunately been lost… and this d.i.y. project is called “Broken Part” also for this reason… but still, I decided to finish it, respecting that period that was magical as it was in every day, night, trick, trip without adding other clips outside of that time when I was to move back to Italy.
Long story short: this is something more than just a contest, it’s a family thing, with incredible dedication. Skateboarding as skateboarding should be.
The skate scene in Berlin and around was pretty ready and impatient for this event on September 1st. People visited the pool weeks before it was finished. But after five months of work, we were ready to open it to the public on this Friday afternoon.
Port Land DIY family put together a new edition of the Freakend party. Three days of rad skating, music playing, silkscreen printing, snake venom drinking and chicken plucking in one of Switzerland’s most famous DIYs.
This is my last part since after more than a year fighting back pain without success (two operations as well as a thousand more treatments), it is time to say goodbye to skateboarding and many other things.
Finland’s locals never give up on celebrating our favorite pastime on four wheels. Over the last years, one town took up a really a massive collective effort and created what to me is one of the most lovely “skate towns” in Northern Europe – and that town is Tampere! Their work led to the creation of the infamous Kenneli DIY Bowl, the Pirkanmaan Kaarikoirat ry association, the outdoor bowl of Iso Villunen, and plenty of cool skate spots all around town.
