Double Fried in Belgium

Words: John Sanders; Photos: Riccardo Romano

A popped shoulder, a pool full of glass and garbage, a sliced palm and a board lost in the canal. John Sanders hosts his friends in Belgium for a trip where almost everything went wrong, except the fries.

Eyeson Fam: Dirty Ranch

Words and photos: Valerio Barbarossa

Born from the surf culture of Florianópolis, grown in Portugal. One Saturday phone call, the wood of a closing indoor park and nine people were enough to build a place to skate, make music and cook together. No owners, no labels. Just friends and fun.

Dime: One Way or Another

Words: Fred Laintegne; Photos: Riccardo Romano

Dime lands in Rome after a rainy London, with no guide and cops at the very first spot. A birthday at Manny Pads and a steak by the Colosseum at an hour nobody eats: when Gab wants something, it happens one way or another.

El Puto D.I.Y

Words: Fabrizio Martinena, Martin Gutierrez; Photos: Lorenzo Peroni

Who decides where skateboarding is allowed to happen? Between streets that refuse to be contained, skateparks won through active citizenship and D.I.Y. spots, building a place to skate becomes an act of collective autonomy. A city that could always become something else.

Efrem & Massi: Centro Direzionale

Words: Efrem Sapienza; Photos: Riccardo Romano

A cathedral in the desert that sinks 1 to 2 centimeters a year. Designed by Kenzo Tange to regenerate Naples, the Centro Direzionale turns into a ghost town after office hours, yet it remains a cornerstone of the local skate scene.
