Malmö Miniramp Challenge
Miniramp takeover complete! Teams: Check. Weather: Good enough. Challenges: On it!
The best way of figuring out what went down this weekend is to check the edits and clips on SHINNER and Instagram. Different teams got involved with different styles and approaches. As skateboarding was intended: Do it on your own terms.
Team Smuts came in full stoke with a heavy lineup coupled with a deep hype. Good filming, a bag of tricks deeper than loch ness and dedication to get things done at first looked like they might dominate the whole event.
Not to be deterred, however, team Big Head kept their fire burning with seemingly endless tricks and footage. No stranger to transition, these guys. Rainbow destruction and tre-fs crook anyone?
Clearly undeterred by the bro-heavy teams, the Boneless Crew made the weekend their own and looked as if they were having a blast. Casual invert skills, commitment and some creative camerawork meant the girls took home several challenges.
The decimated The The Wave Wave braved through the weekend prioritising cinematic re-enactment. Putting a lot of work into scenic settings as well as non-verbal audiocommunication. And, of course, skating. Animal Chin was probably, like the rest of the team, away on other business, but The The Wave Wave prevailed none the less. And get the shaka out for that carve session!
Team Larp Larpington took the costume drama challenge and brought it miles outside the box. What is skateboarding? Probably this. Potentially not. Until we standardize the wheelbase-measurements for costume-drama challenges, this will certainly wash. Cool song, gents. I think.
Team Streetlab showed and took on several challenges at the new ramp in Enskifteshagen, cutting it close with other teams. Sick ender, Benhög! Bonus award for vet-tech.
Team Hanssons were out charging over the weekend, earning a bonus award for uploaded tricks.

Malmö Miniramp Challenge
If we can’t meet up – let’s spread out!
In a normal year the onset of spring would mean it was time for Folkets Miniramp Jam. Two things have happened. The obvious first is the pandemic and this means we can’t meet up for traditional events. The second is that Malmö has had several new miniramps added over the last year. Well if we can’t skate just one, let’s skate them all! – Welcome to the Malmö Miniramp Challenge!
