Macba got destroyed

Posted by Bling on Aug 7, 2009 | 5 comments

Hey skaters,

I just visited one of skateboarding’s most iimportant cities, Barcelona & I went to Macba which is the worlds most popular spot i think, anway, I went to skate the Big four and I witnessed one of skateboarding’s tragedies! They were destroyed into dust, bust there was still a little space where you acn attempt them and with good runaway!

The Remains Of Macba

Me and khaled which is a local skater in Alexandria skated there and filmed some stuff, I went the day after and I saw alot of fences which were surronding them, no one can get in and skate and the destroyed the runaway! I was the last one to skate macba, and I felt so bad.

Skateboarders all over barcelona protested but they failed, they destroyed macba because it was too noisy, they are going to change the floor there so skaters cant skate & this story is similar to the 24/7 spot in Alexandria

“Every trick that was dont there by pro’s is just a part of history” – Amr Badr said sadly (A.K.A ARTO), Everyone is going to miss this wonderful spot!

Cheers from Spain,

    I think that was a very a unwise decision, Destroying the MACBA sets will be bad for Tourism, skate tourism to be exact, Skaters won’t be inclined to visit Barcelona as much as before

    hahaha they cleaned the mess up!!

    Admin im nt sure your cherif or omar but probably cherif!! they will destroy all macba not the big four only, ofcourse the wont destroy the museum but they will remove the floor from every spot in macba and replace it with a worse type and they want to make skateboarding illegal from every spot in barcelona!!! skaters will protest hard overthere!

    if you can look at the big four photo from the TWS website you can see that the runway is destroyed, they wont even let any other skater skate it, the government overthere is furious!!! they will let skateboarding allowed only in skateparks!

    just as a reminder, skateboarding has been illegal in barcelona for almost 4 years
