SKATEPAL, PALENSTINE

Alongside SkatePal and Inash AIUsra  (a non-profit, charitable, Palestinian women’s association) we are building a concrete skatepark in Al-Bireh/Ramallah, Palestine. Located at the girls orphanage in Inash AlUsra, it will provide the girls with a safe space to learn and practice skateboarding under the guidance of local skateboarders, fitted with a concrete mini ramp, hip, wallride, ledge and more. The build also provides an opportunity for our local staff and skaters to learn the various skills and techniques necessary to build future spots and parks in Palestine.  As part of the project, we're refitting a water well providing the association and orphanage with a greater reserve of cleaner water. Access to water continues to be severely limited in Palestine. This allows us to remove the current, much smaller reserve tanks, freeing up more space for skating.
