On Friday the 7th of May 2010, many board skaters and many more patans took the time out of their busy schedules to travel out to the famous fruit and vegetable market north-west of nowhere to glean knowlage on an event known only as ‘Red Bull Manny Mania’. Not all was in vain however as the patans witnessed maneuvers that they only thought were possible with the usage of some kind of glue applied to the shoe. Well, how is your mind not to be confused when witnessing the technical maneuvers of board skaters such as Jan Hoffman, Omar Al Abbar, Evan Collisson, Lawrence Jokun, Martin Jaouni, Max Velmitskiy, Gustav Larsson, Mark Issa and the one and only Alex Medvedev – edevedevedevedevedevedevedev. Special thanks to all the Patans for making the event so special. PATAN POWER.

Some wonder why Maysam didn’t make it to the finals!

This is Qatar from Enrique Mayor on Vimeo.

The Spanish Nike SB team recently got back from a trip to Qatar and looks like they we’re quite productive! Watch the trailer!

Here’s what they had to say about it the trip and the documentary they are planning to release in January.

“This is the trailer of the documentary we filmed 3 weeks ago in Qatar. With Daniel Lebron, Adrian Del Campo, Daniel Lopez de Ipiña, Juan Algora and Daniel Rubio.

Exploration is part of every skateboarder’s DNA. Searching and finding new skate spots is something you have in your blood since the time you start skating and becomes part of your day by day life. In November, the Spanish Nike Sb team ventured to discover unexplored lands in Doha (Qatar). How these 5 skateboarders, suffered, enjoyed, discovered and skated, you can see it on this documentary edited by Enrique Mayor and producted by Ivan Jimenez in January 2010.

This is Qatar.”

Enrique Mayor

Check back in January!
