Afghanistan now has a skatepark! With a lot of hard work from Melbournian Oliver Percovich and the rest of the Skateistan crew (and donations from people like Blackbox), the first skatepark opened in Kabul a couple weeks ago. From all accounts it’s been a hit with the locals. So much so the German Foreign Ministry donated 70,000 USD to the project. There’s a heap more photos of the indoor park here and an interesting video below.

What these guys have done is so amazing. The indoor park looks awesome!
Fucking Gold! Kudos to the instigators of this awesome inspiration to the kids of Afghanistan.
