Delhi's skateboarders take you into their exciting world

  • 8 years ago
Delhi has become a pilgrim spot for skateboarders of South East Asia. This concrete urbane jungle is a large part of the skateboarding revolution in India. Even professional skate boarders drop in to the area to pay homage to streets and taste the wild energy flowing in the ramps and rails of Delhi. This is the story of a group of young skateboarders brought together by Delhi’s first indoor skate park- Freemotion Sk8 in Neb Sarai. South Delhi has over 500 skateboarders alone and the numbers are rising each day. From a realist point, skateboarding may be the next big extreme city sport in the next 10 years. The reasons are simple. One can buy a skateboard for as little as a thousand rupees and no pre-requirements.
