If something can be learned from skateboarding is that things in life not always necessarily go your way. Falls, bails and slams can be waiting for you in every corner without previous notice.

We got notified 48h before the BACK TO THE 4 event, that permits were denied to run it at the MACBA blocks. Everything was already built, planned, flights booked and so on.

But we were taught to never surrender…

Thanks to SB Ramps and Alex Braza, the whole thing got relocated to a private location and the blocks rebuilt in less than a day.

Once the first ollie went down the madness began, and it was officially on! The hype was real and the sessions followed in overheat mode. 

First one on the blocks, then a Volcom Hubba got added and it ended with a Monster ledge…  

Check photos and video for the highlights and a glimpse of the vibe and energy we all witnessed!

After this, everybody headed back to MACBA, for a video premiere at a next-door venue, and suddenly, an improvised open sesh down the 3 blocks started organically.

Everything that happen at the big three was out of the event which was shut down in the previous location.

But I guess nobody can´t stop the energy of a bunch of fired up skateboarders.
