What we do
As skateboarders we do what we know best
We build skateparks, we bring boards, we come up with educative activities and we share good times!
As a bunch of skaters we know how this sport is powerful in creating a community. We believe that this aspect can be the key to sustainable help. Especially regarding younger generations.
See what we didFounded in 2018, our first build took place in 2019. We relocated from Copenhagen to Prague pushing towards new and exciting projects.
Establishment of SWB
We founded SWB in Copenhagen as a university project in 2019. After the successful completion of the first two projects in Mozambique, we relocated to Prague.
In Prague
We decided to continue with another mission. We linked-up with Johny Kalenga in Zambia where we delivered a project in 2021.
Bonidee Skateparks
We received a major support on our project through the commercial activity of Bonidee Skateparks. In 2023 we delivered a project in Swaziland and Ethiopia.
New plans
We have a new project in Lesotho and a couple more that are coming.
Stories
Some cool moments
Doing this, it is not just great times spent in Africa, but also hours and hours of planning and meetings. These are some great moments and stories that we experience on the way to all of this.
When we go on projects
Building skateparks across Africa is more than construction—it's about creating spaces where communities thrive. Each project brings together local youth, volunteers, and partners to build something lasting. These are the stories of transformation, one skatepark at a time.
SKEJTY A LOPATY
Česká Televize got excited about our work and supported us in developing a five episode documentary from the project that took place in Zambia.
And we could not have done it
without our partners
