Cool Runnings is coming home
Join us as we relive the spirit of the original gathering point for all kinds of blade and roller skating.
27 years ago, a new type of event was created in Denmark with the purpose of bringing people together to enjoy the best skating, good friends, music, and incredible tricks. The most important aspect was not the competition, but rather the atmosphere and the “hygge”.
This year, we’re bringing back the same purpose and atmosphere to Urban Street Zone in Brande.
From Friday, September 1st to Sunday, September 3rd, come and experience the thrill of watching the best skaters perform incredible tricks and enjoy good friends, music, food, and drinks. We have big ambitions for the future of this event and we need your help to make it happen.
The weekend will be filled with small events. Experience world-class skating at the bowl competition, best trick competition, trick for cash, and the real street event. And finish off a good night in the company of live music, BBQs and good beer and friends.
The NL Contest by Caisse d’Epargne is an international festival celebrating the urban culture. It is coming back in 2023 for its 17th edition, from the 26th to the 28nd of May, at the Rotonde Skatepark in Strasbourg – same spot, same fun !
More than a competition, this event born in 2005 is unique in Europe. Each year it puts the spotlight on old and new urban sports and groundbreaking trends which redefine our usage and appropriation of urban space based on three values : sharing, dedication and performance.
Strasbourg will bathe in urban culture from March to May, to the rhythm of the OFF events such as exhibitions, performances and a variety of other projects. An eventful period culminating with the gathering of 37,000 aficionados, neophytes or initiates, for three days and three nights of festival.
The NL festival offers a rich schedule, filled with urban sport contests (rollerskate, BMX, skateboard and freestyle scooter), topped with performances (streetball, breakdance, dj’s, graffiti, tricking) and bathing in music. More than sixty booths will surround the festival, where you will find a trade show and additional entertainment.
Each year, the contest welcomes some of the best athletes in the world and both local and international artists.
Nouvelle Ligne - The Association
Nouvelle Ligne (french for New Line) is an association operating to promote the urban culture, with the goal to spread and push the values and lifestyles associated to it. Created in 2004 by professional riders including two world champions, its reputation and expertise in urban sports are well established.
The association’s main activity is the organization of competitions and events : several shows in prestigious places such as the European Parliament, as well as rallies at the Rotonde Skatepark in Strasbourg are held each year. While some events have a local to regional reach, such as Jam Sessions and the Teenage Battle, the NL Contest definitely shines internationally.

Mesmer presents “XXX”, our most recent trip down the rabbit hole. This was a 3 day trip in Holland with some of the team after Winterclash. We were surprised with sunny weather during what is normally a cold and rainy time of the year, so we took advantage. Enjoy!
