Skateistan is more than just a couple of expat skaters pouring concrete in a far off distant land under the guise of insane terrain. Australian born Oliver Percovich and the rest of the Skateistan crew have invested a lot of time and effort into Afghanistan to bring the positive energy and benefits skateboarding can provide to kids. Relying on the support of the skateboard community, Skateistan joined together with industry heavy weights Deluxe to provide the locals with some brand new Spitfire wheels to get their shred on. Watch the video here. If you’re feeling charitable this Christmas, try taking a look at Skateistan and see what you can do to help.
