European team tours, Quiksilver Bowlriders and Protec Pool Party

So, let’s continue with what is currently going on around Europe:

- several teams from the US are flying over to do demos and film for upcoming videos. DVS Shoes (from May 24th till June 3rd) and Ezekiel (Ezekiel is already travelling around Europe right now till May 21st) are shredding through Europe yet again. Plan B as mentioned in one of our updates will be in Hamburg, Germany on May 26th…I still haven’t found out where else they are going to be, sorry! Maybe someone can help me out on this one…

Can’t help to sometimes go a bit international when it comes to big contests. The third annual Pro-tec Pool Party went down last Sunday and it must have been a blast when pro skaters like Bucky Lasek say “That was the best contest I was in and couldn’t skate in…it was the best contest I ever watched.“. Here are the results:
