Uganda? That's what it said in the message from skate-aid. I was asked if I wanted to accompany the guys and girls of skate-aid, including Titus, to Uganda to document the whole trip (including the grand opening of the “Skull Bowl” at the Kampala Skatepark) photographically. Taking pictures…traveling…skate-aid project? I didn’t hade to think twice...

This week was under the motto: skate-aid@school powered by Westfaelische Provinzial. This year, together with Provinzial, we’re visiting four additional schools as part of our skate-aid@school project.
We were together with the office Provinzial Aegidiimarkt and our transportable miniramp...

Yesterday we finally restarted with our skateboard workshops in Bethlehem/Palestine. After a break of more than 12 months we’re finally back on the board! The skate park is located near the historic site of Shepherd's Field in the West Bank. Apart from the political instability and the prevailing violence, the area suffers from a high unemployment rate and a high level of poverty. During the construction of the skate park...

We’re back on track! Last week we were able to offer, even though only for two days, our pedagogical skateboard workshop ‘skate-aid@school’ with our mobile mini ramp as a trial offer at the Pleisterschule in Münster. The kids had a lot of fun skateboarding together in a small group and taking on the "challenge" of skateboarding. Skateboarding is a non-contact "sport", but you could tell how much the kids...

For the RUHR GAMES 2021 we’ll fit out two containers in cooperation with the Kliemannsland. The upcycled containers will be the center of the "Skateland-Area” at the RUHR GAMES for 4 days and equipped with boards, helmets and safety gear. Together with the Kliemannsland team and our skate-aid coaches you can try out skateboarding, learn how to assemble boards or expand your trick repertoire...

Hi there, this is Arne Fiehl from BOARDSTEIN!

This year I celebrated Easter at a very exceptional place. Well, I didn`t really celebrate, for me there`s nothing to celebrate rather than having another day off after that Sunday. Anyway, together with me mates Gabu and Kiki and our Rasta-bro Wasswa I travelled to his homeplace, a small village near Kisoro which is a tiny town in the most south west corner of Uganda next to Ruanda and Kongo....

Right now, we’re running daily pedagogical skateboarding workshops with up to 30 kids and on weekends with up to 60 kids in our skate park in Kampala/Uganda.
After the expansion, which is currently under construction, we’ll be able to empower even more children. In addition, we’re planning to send international volunteers to Uganda for the first time to support the workshops...

In September 2020, we launched our GIRLS SKATE! campaign, which - thanks to your great support - became a permanent skate-aid initiative. With GIRLS SKATE! we want to actively change role stereotypes and encourage girls to pursue their interests and develop their skills. We want to show them that they can do anything, including skateboarding and create awareness of how valuable skateboarding can be for the personal development....

Finally, the construction of the Skull Bowl in Uganda can start! After the project had to be cancelled shortly before its start in spring 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic, we can now bring you the good news that our project coordinator Gabu arrived in Uganda last week to start with the construction preparations of the new bowl. Depending on the weather conditions, this great extension of the skate park in Kampala will be built in 8-12 weeks....
