In just one week, with the help of around 30 dedicated maniacs who were willing to spend their free time working in the scorching heat of Münster, we made it happen. Teams from Cologne, Aachen, Sauerland, Hamburg, and Stuttgart joined us and gave us a huge hand – once again: much love to everyone involved – DIY family showed off big time!

With Denmark pretty nearby we usually go North when doing road trips, but this time we went the other way to the Ruhrpott area, about 350 km south west starting from Hamburg…and fuck, we were not disappointed.
On September 18, 2020 – World Wide PARK(ing) Day – activists block city streets in an effort to take back the space all those cars occupy all the time. Few things are more annoying and useless than cars in a city. We, as skateboarders, are pretty much used to “repurposing city space”, so we decided to build a little ramp with the help of our local “BTC” D.I.Y. Crew. We added some beers to the equation and it all went down as a memorable afternoon.

“Every trip has it’s ups and downs. Whether it be not finding places to stay, long drives, weather, etc… After Sweden and Denmark we were sure that we were on an “up”. We get picked up in Malmö after having to get ahold of Brad through his girlfriend’s instagram. The drive was easy with a spacious van and we even ended up taking a ferry somewhere in there as well. My goal was to only speak German for as long we were in Germany. So I was less than talkative for the first four or so hours driving. I ended up breaking language when we ran into some of our friends from the States at a completely random rest stop off the German highway. A few English words with the homies and we’re off to Munster to skate for a couple of days….” – Steven Reeves
The concrete bowl at Berg Fidel in Münster, Germany was built in 1989 and marks the early development of concrete bowl skateboarding in Europe. It was the same year Titus held the world championships in Germany, and pros from America like John Cardiel, Matt Hensley, Chris Miller, Christian Hossoi and Danny Way all have skated the Monster Bowl in it’s early beginnings. 22 years later…
