One or two steps from the end

After a week resting our bodies and souls, we finally got to Moura, in Alentejo. We're now staying in Serpa's Camping, and we found some cool kids here. This weekend, a mediaevel market will take the village and we expect to taken 500 years back. For now, here are some images of Alqueva's Alentejo. See you soon!

Mogadouro

After a great weekend in Bragança, off we went to Mogadouro. Downhill miles. In Mogadouro we visited the old Castle, and amzed ourselves with the Trás-os-Montes landscapes. All the roads here are a challenge. You'll need a strong heart to ride these roads. And now what? Pay us a visit tomorrow and you'll find out.

For 2009 Portugal By Skate

Hey 

For 2009, Portugal by skate is making a complete and new event. This year, and for the first time, we are inviting people to come with us in this journey, more than a 1000 km in 63 days on the road, a summer full of adventures.

Since 2007 we've been starting in Caminha, in the north of Portugal, and we've been taking all way down by the sea line to reach the goal in Vila Real de Santo Antonio in Algarve. This ye

ar the departure and arrival points are the same but the way is going to be completely diferent: we chose to make it along the border line near spain, we gonna catch all the hills we can!!!

Don´t even think about fancy vacaciones: we will camp allmost every day... think about this trip as an adventure.

We don´t have any suport to pay anything, each people pays for their own things... We're still looking for some suport .

If you need some more information mail us: portugaldeskate@gmail.com

LongBoard meetig ! in Portugal !!!!!

Once again, rising from deep oblivion...

here we are! Right in the midle of our journey. We've been over a month on the road, from Caminha to Porto during the first week, there to Aveiro in the week after, from there to São Pedro de Moel, and finaly arrived to Ericeira, near home. Clean sheets and nice food...

Too many things have happened since we last posted here, and it became hard to keep up with all the news. After having all the sponsorings closed we got ourselves on the way to Portugal by Skate's second edition. In Oporto longboard scene is far more developped than in Lisboa, or so it seems. We've been received by the Longboarderz Team: they took us to some of the coolest places to ride longboard in the northern Portugal, such as Matosinhos,

Gaia where we spent our "Go Skateboarding Day",

and Carvoeiro, some kick ass roads...

In Ovar we had some company again for some longboarding miles, and again we were presented to some cool agressive oldschool downhill roads: Minhoteira. Deep Portugal with wide open minded locals.

Longboard workshops in the Youth Hostels have been working prety good too! We truly realize that longboard skate is almost unknown for most of the kids, and it's a pleasure and a privilege to get them in touch with our passion.
