It’s interesting to witness how strong the Skateboarding scene has become in central & east Europe and it’s even more interesting to see their progress and those beautiful spots.

Ok, the last one for today! We actually need to enjoy Christmas with our families but this Polish gem interfered with our plans. A few details before we give some praise, it is a video by Repeat skate a.k.a Krzysztof Godek for the Warsaw-based SH store. Now Krysztof is responsible for IF YOU DON’T SKATE DON’T START which was a great video but with this one he has made a leap forward again.

Now just the first part by Tomek Ziółkowski alone is worth the watch. We never thought that crossing Chris Milic’ skate style and Aurelien Giraud’s dress sense could work but Tomek is living proof. And if that is not enough, Michał Juraś does one of the gnarliest Ollies of 2021 and Filip Wojciechowski has a great full part. So enjoy the SH video.

Roughly a month ago Krzysztof Godek hit us up. He told us about his newest project and if we would be interested in premiering any parts of the video… included was a link to the full project.

Now it is no secret that we are supporters of the Polish scene in general but some parts in “IF YOU DON’T SKATE, DON’T START” really hit the mark.

That means that this is only our first release concerning this particular project. And to be honest, this part might have some of the most interesting tricks we have seen in a while! So, after we cleared things with Krysztof and set up the releases we asked who is this guy?! Konrad Kruzynski.

This is what he came back to us with:

So… Konrad is a young (22), crazy dreamer, stoner, artist, student, graphic designer, graffiti man, event host, skate association guy, fashion designer, probably also a rapper, chef, mad scientist and who knows what else… A renaissance man…

He is always late at least 2 hours because he has so many things to fix on the way. I’m sure in his head there is a lot happening… much more than in an average person’s skull. His ideas are sometimes so crazy that no one knows what to think about it.

He is always trying to do some abstract tricks that he is not even a little close to riding aways from – and then… all of a sudden he surprisingly does it… a moment that no one expects will come. Definitely one of a kind. His skateboarding speaks for his personality.

There is a lot of movement in the Polish skate scene, from the omnipresent Grey Area of Kuba Kaczmarczyk to the recently released SH store tour, to now this full length by Krzysztof Godek.

This is a special moment because we all need to realize that we are now truly a multigenerational sport because Krzysiek Poskrobko managed to create this part at 38 years of age. Props to you!

From now on Krzysztof will be releasing one part a week so keep your eyes peeled.
