Embark on our first team project as we dive into the magic streets of Barcelona right after visiting and smashing the biggest skate event in the world. Follow Nils Jansons, Tomek Przybylik and two young Eastern European riders (Valters Grasmanis & Michal Pietrzak) taking over some of the most iconic spots and showing their unique approach to street skating.

Take a look on some of the best tricks that went down at the Pro/ Open finals during this year’s GGFest. Big congrats to all the winners! Camera: Mārtiņš Jansons.
