Gnarmads in Cuba with Amigo Skate Cuba

Within the first few days we already had the chance to meet or skate with over 30 local skaters of all ages. Our conversational Spanish wasn’t the best, but the language of skateboarding truly prevailed. The locals showed us skate spots, took us out, and told us some epic stories of growing up & overall life in Havana. Amigo Skate Cuba organized a contest at the local skatepark, where over 150 kids showed up just by word of mouth.
