Yama Skateboards went to the Balkans and came back with 16 minutes of rough but great skateboarding on the streets of Ljubljana, Thessaloniki, and more. You might know Yama from their last video which was also a Place Presents but now they are looking for a signature Place Presents style Sales Bump for Yama Skateboards with this new project.

I want to start off, by possibly apologizing to our friends in Greece, we’ve heard through multiple sources that people in Greece do not consider themselves as part of the Balkans. Then again, these same sources did confirm that during their own separate travel through the Balkan region, they could not deny that there is a strong connection. Yama gathered a squad consisting of several skaters from the Balkans, Greece, and their own Austria-based crew, to create the magic you will see in this video.

“We’ve heard through multiple sources that people in Greece do not consider themselves as part of the Balkans…”

The trip itself feels like a lot of bonding happened, beer was drunk, and spots were handled. So much so that at one point the can was empty. But with a diverse crew consisting of bicycle repairmen, doctors, musicians, and more we are sure all bases were covered in the end.

Lastly, we want to thank all involved in making this happen, Lori & Simon for editing, Yama for trusting us, and Notis for allowing Yama to use his ….. that will also be in the Vans video. By now Dr. Fuxl will have returned to his praxis, Lori will be fixing bikes and Simon is… well we don’t know if he wants you to know what he is doing out in Vienna… So all in all, we don’t know how you feel but we are excited to see more from the Yama crew and family. We hope you enjoy “Place Presents: Sales Bump by Yama Skateboards”!

Here is a very fun-to-watch clip by Martin Weiss filmed in Vienna over the summer featuring the same group of friends as in one of our recent Place Presents called “AIRHEADS”.

Vienna holds a special place in our hearts because it is home to a lot of our friends. So it's obvious that our hearts are beating faster every time there's something new from the most livable city in the world.

After last year’s Germany tour the Yama crew decided to stay in their motherland Austria to see what it offers, and they found themselves some amazing spots to skate. The bank-to-barrier spot looks like a lot of fun.

The Yama Skateboards van passed through Berlin end of summer last year after a lot of beers and skating in Nuremberg, Kassel, and Hannover. You don´t really see skateboarders doing van tours anymore these days so we had a nostalgic feeling watching this video. The whole trip was documented by our friend Jan Federer who runs the Vienna-based magazine ABD and after seeing/reading the article we were eager to watch the video. Unfortunately, editing the video took a while which was probably because of Lorenz having to work a lot, or maybe it was because of him having to renew his free Adobe Premiere trial every seven days(:P). But in the end, he finished it and the video is definitely worth a watch!

Check out the ABD article HERE.

Our good friend Leon Moss dropped this video out of nowhere and it blew us away. He told us since he started to film for various brands and saved clips for possible future projects, he never ended up continuing to make his own videos after his “So Silly” video. A lot of footage piled up on his hard drive, so instead of letting those clips get dustier and dustier, he decided to edit this video. We had no idea he had so much up his sleeve. Amazing work Leon! We can´t wait for the next one!

Make sure to go back and rewatch Leon’s previous edits HERE.

It is no secret that we have a special place in our hearts for Vienna, from the Turtles to Louis Marschall and Toni Donau we love to support the city that once together with Budapest was at the top of Europe. Now the power might have been redistributed but the city remains one of the best ones to skate in and even though they have the lovely Jan Federer working hard on his ABD mag it is nice to give some extra support isn’t it!

This video shows that YAMA SKATEBOARDS although never gone, yet still returned! The video stars the whole YAMA family including senior members like Muki Rüstig and Mr. Spettel! But it also doesn’t exclude some new faces like Gabs, Nele, and our all-time biggest YAMA friend FUXL! Altogether this project shows that our YAMA vibe is as seductive as it has ever been: no glamor, no fuss.. only good, quality-time skateboarding.

Left FUXL the fan and Right Niki Krastanas with a properly grabbed wallride.

About 2 weeks back we were in Vienna, we met up with the turtle crew, we filmed a little clip of this British guy Henry who found love in the city and we met up with Louis Marschall. All in all, it was a nice get-together, and most of the faces we saw during those sessions are now represented in this new 11-minute piece.

We asked Louis to tell us a bit more and he came back with this little text:

“I try to be outside filming almost every day anyway but what specifically made this video come together was my good friend Henry Gibbs.

“Because of the global outbreak of Covid-19 and the fact that his girlfriend is currently living in Vienna he decided to extend his trip to the city way longer than planned (In the end, he stayed about 4 months). 

Due to his positive energy and motivational skills, we had a really good time filming in beautiful Vienna. I believe this video shows just that, FUN, and I look forward to seeing him again. Cheers to Henry and all of my friends!”

Now simply press play and enjoy the ride.
