Greetings from: Mar del Plata | Argentina Sessions

Even though it’s a small city, Mar del Plata is one of the pillars of the skateboarding scene in Argentina. The cradle of surfing in the South American country, it saw the birth of the first national skate contests at the end of the 1970s and into the early ’80s.

Pablo ‘Tatú’ Martinez, Marcelo ‘Mosca’ Bejanele, Ivan Damico and Luis Kretschmann are some of the skaters who led the local scene then, and they still skate the city’s streets to this day.
