Surfskate Event Archive 2014-2021

Before we had a Surfhouse in El Palmar, we had already spent years building a community around surfskate. This is our archive of meetups, championships, festivals and events from 2014 to 2021.

From the first meetups in Madrid to championships, trips and simultaneous gatherings in different cities, every event became part of what Carving Social Club is today. We have collected some of those moments here so they are not lost.
