Urban Jam
As I've learned in this article written by @knowhow92, today is the Go Skateboarding Day.
Sorry, I didn't know. I am not a skateboarder after all.
My son is, though. Yesterday we spent the afternoon at the Urban Jam event in Ljubljana, Slovenia.
I only made one photo and this turned out quite well.
Ramps, pump tracks, jumps outside with permanent indoors skatepark, this is the Urban Roof area.
Sorry that I can't find any fresh photos from the event. This one is from setting the tent and the ramp prior to the event.

I do have a video of my son rollerblading on the ramp. I will upload it in the following days.
He was very surprised at how slippery the ramp was. Not at all like the firm grip of concrete or wooden ramps.
The ramp is produced and set up by the Flow Ramps, a group of Slovenian skating enthusiasts.
Flow Ramps is a portable urban sports platform. With services ranging from skateboarding and BMX workshops for complete beginners to big crowd demo shows with professional athletes, Flow Ramps comprises of highly competent and motivated staff, innovative programmes and services, premium quality equipment and international experiences.
So it was on Saturday, a aday earlier, that we somehow celebrated the Go Skateboarding Day :)
Better and better
Thanks for the shout out @ervin-lemark.
I think your son really enjoyed this festival! I used to get so hyped in Skate Jams when I was a kid and I still do!
You photo looks awesome by the way!
P.S Thanks for updating your delegation to Steemskate to 200 HP. Much appreciated man.
Hey, thank you and you're welcome.
Yes, these events are great. Especially since this was the first proper gathering after the lockdown.
Our son was there fooling around for more that five hours and in the end he didn't want to go home :)
Ps: you are welcome. I love your commitment and spirit in animating the community.
