Skate in Afganistan

Posted by admin on Sat, 26 Jun 2010

Well if someone asked which place in the world is less likely to have a skate scene, afghanistan would be very high in that list.It's more than suprising how this culture ended up in one far corner of the world but it's also encouraging.

In addition in the afternoon of monday the 21st there were over 140 kids riding for Internation Skate Day(ISD).A contest was held for the best 16 male and female riders there, and prizes were awarded to all the competitors no matter how high they ranked.This is a solid proof that rolling knows no boundaries, no matter the place.
