Skate, spots, music, sessions, burgers and afterparty - why make it more complicated? You Bastard Skateboard Contest ties together the very best from the local skate scene up north. In each city visited, a skate-spot gets upgraded for the session, and the skaters - both locals and members of the tour – competes for 5 000 SEK. On top of that, the winner also secures a spot in the finals, held in Stockholm 10/9 where they compete for another 30 000 SEK. Of course, we´ll hand out some prizes for best slam, best trick, best hair-do, and what not.

The rules are easy, the skater that does the best of the most and the most of the best tricks wins. The crowd is the ultimate referee.

This year we will visit Örebro 11/8, Oslo 12/8, Göteborg 13/8, Sundsvall 19/8, Umeå 20/8, Helsingfors 3/9 and finals in Stockholm 10/9.
