We know it’s been a while since we spoke about the Mpora app but it’s something worth talking about today! We’ve been having a few teething problems with it but after many weeks of tinkering and attaching new streamlined features, we’re proud to announce that there’s an update! Not only does it make it look [...]
Asperger’s Syndrome isn’t a very well known disorder as most people only know about it if it affects them. For those of you that don’t know: “Asperger syndrome (AS), also known as Asperger’s syndrome or Asperger disorder, is an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) that is characterized by significant difficulties in social interaction, alongside restricted and [...]
It’s never good to hear about skateparks closing down but when it’s a park as big and as influential as Skatepark Amsterdam, it hits home that little bit harder. We recently received news that they were going to be evicted and they had this to say about it: More Skate Videos It seems that commercialism [...]
The name Tom Schaar rings a bell doesn’t it? Well, if you remember rightly, I spoke about Tom recently and how he landed the world’s first skateboarding 1080 over the pond at Woodward. If you didn’t read it, then read it here. We all knew that this was the start of something special. It only [...]

If you’re a keen follower of the sports on Mpora then you are going to be more than aware of the Dew Tour and how good it is. Over the past few years, as it grew in popularity, it also grew in tour stops. Last year there were plenty of stops along the way that [...]
Photo: Matt Lingo/Red Bull Content Pool When this was mentioned to me I was wondering who would be called out as the skater that successfully landed this. Your mind runs through the crazier of the skaters out there and then it wanders over to Tony Hawk (he hasn’t landed anything bigger than a 720 for [...]
Red Bull Supernatural is an event that’s been spoken about at Mpora HQ for a while now, mostly about how ridiculously epic it’s going to be. But I just read some news that blew us all away and it should be something that raises your eyebrows too. It turns out that not only will Red [...]
