UPDATE: The trip was amazing! We will go back to Amsterdam soon, to make sure you don't miss it, subscribe to our newsletter or join our Facebook group!

Amsterdam; smooth tarmac, generous cycle lanes and the most respectful motorists ever seen. And of course the obvious advantage, not an uphill in sight (the only slopes are bridges).

PariSkate

Following four years of successful skate trips to Paris, 2009 will see Skateinstructor.com and Skatefresh going to Paris to skate the famous Friday night Pari-Roller street skate and enjoy a weekend of skating in one of the world's most skateable cities.

The "unbelievably smooth" streets of Paris form the backdrop to the weekend and the Friday street skate can have over 15,000 skaters participating each week! See the city on skates on Saturday and complete another street skate on Sunday.

The London Friday Night Skate & Sunday Stroll

The London skater community created these regular street skates several years ago. They are marshalled, where very good skaters block the traffic to provide a safe environment, and are "absolutely free". The Sunday Stroll is a good street skate for beginners whereas the London Friday Night Skate is much, much faster! Run throughout the year these are a prime example of the community working together.

The Wednesday Night Skate

Run throughout the summer, the Wednesday Night Skate lies somewhere between the Sunday Stroll and London Friday Night Skate. With a relaxed and often loud environment, it's something to aim for as a beginner. Again, this skate is absolutely free!
