Damn, did we have a good year! Never before did we visit that much skateboarding madness in such a time. From Holland to Spain, from Italy to United States of America, we hardly missed anything. Guys like Nyjah Huston, Yuto Horigome, Aurelien Giraud, Jagger Eaton, Danny Way to just name a few, no one escaped Woody’s interrogation. 2019 BRING IT ON!
On some occasions you have places that never seem to get dull, one of those places is Lissabon. Although we have put out multiple video’s surrounding Lissabon, each time it surprises you with new spots. This time tourguide Pedro Raimundo (Surge Magazine) took some of the Vans riders from Belgium around town for one week in his Skatetank. Take a look at what Jonathan Tijs, Timothy Deconynck, Yeelen Moens, and Jonathan Vlerick did on some of the more hidden spots in and around Lisbon.
