The idea was simple: five dams in five days, skate them, film them, and see what happens. What began as a concept for a skate promo turned into a journey that pushed both skating and storytelling into new spaces. Each dam carried its own atmosphere, shaping the way tricks and visuals came to life. This was never just a trip. It became a moving residency on the road, where the heat, the architecture, and the exhaustion became part of the process. Five days of travel, five massive structures, and the challenge to create something unique at every stop.
