What an incredible month for skating in Amsterdam! August was absolutely electric, with the entire community coming together for some truly massive events. The absolute highlight was the Vondelcup, which took over the city with its high-energy competitions, a special edition of the Friday Night Skate, and an amazing free clinic in Vondelpark for all ages. It was awesome to see so many skaters pushing their limits and sharing their passion.
Beyond the Vondelcup, the scene was buzzing with opportunities to level up your skills. Skatefresh hosted some killer workshops, and the weekly Friday Night Skate even featured a special entry-level roll-out, proving once again that Amsterdam’s scene has a welcoming spot for everyone. After such a packed month, let’s keep that fantastic energy rolling into September and see what we can discover together!
