On May 3rd, 2014 the Bowl des Trixhes was in party mode. People from everywhere came together and spent all day riding a firing session under constant snaking, Zèbre’s erotico-ironic lyrics and Petula Clarck’s guitar grinding the coping.
This is the third year that we (G’nassis) organized the Malinas Machinas event in Mechelen. The first year we didn’t really knew what we were doing, but we knew that we wanted skateboarding, bands playing and the bowl filled up with water for a pool party. And that all ended up super good, so we decided to do it again the next year in pirate style.
The Best of Both is a wooden bowl contest that takes place every year for the last four or five years. The first day the skating is in the downstairs Factory Bowl, and the second day upstairs in the OMSA Pool which is a wooden replica of a real backyard pool.
