Anyone know if there is any shops out here that might carry some Supreme merch?
Thanks.

We are going in July (18-28), my son, my wife and me.

Have been there last year for a week and it is an awesome city.

Last year i did a little video of my son skating at Fondo, Macba, Paral-lel.

Tim Otto - Barcelona 2013

Really awesome city...

Hey guys!

What about weather in August? Is it skateable? We're planning fully skateboard trip, filming etc. but we don't know if it is worth our time.

yeah I mean if there's not too hot to skate, it would be weird to go on tour and skate only at night

Not going to lie, it will be hot. Average for august is about 80. The thing that's the worst is the humidity, about 75% every day (at times higher) so it's like a fucking sauna. But no doubt with the sea and tons of spots you'd still have an amazing time.

 www.airbnb.com
We rented an apartment for $30 a night. It was small, with no kitchen (just a fridge and microwave), but $30 a night was fucking insane, best location ever, right off of Las Ramblas! Beat any hostel /hotel for price and most of them for location. Book in advance cause all the good apartments book up super fast.

Also the person we rented off of gave us tons of tips on good food and drink spots nearby.

Coming with 2 other friends this may for 3 weeks and were looking to rent a room with 3 beds as close to MACBA as possible, just started looking on airbnb and found some places for like $50CAD (€32) a night nearby is that an average price for a 3 bedroom private room in the area or are these places going to be sketchy? I got some expensive camera gear that I really don't want to get jacked but were also trying to make this trip happen for as cheap as possible. I've never used and don't know much about airbnb or what parts of barcelona are good and bad, any advise or other good websites for renting a place would be mucho appreciated!

In barcelona you dont get jacked, you get your shit stolen in a split second without realising it on time. Dudes are artists. A friend had his camera gear stolen while he was drinking beer on a bench, he got a lil bit drunk and he didnt realise that his camera was stolen just beneath his feet. Another friend went in a net cafe and had his bag on his chair he stared at the screen and when he wanted something from his bag he turned back and his bag was missing. I witnessed an American tourist flashing his iPhone trying to figure out with gps where he was and out of nowhere a kid on a bike just grabbed the phone and got lost in the streets. I saw prostitutes kissing a drunk guy and stealing his wallet, while he was thinking he scored two chicks. You wont get jacked but try to keep an eye on your gear and be sober when you do so.

I'm from Barcelona!

In summer is quite easy to find a job because there's a huge demand on cofees, restaurants... but you will need to have your visa, NIE...

Where are you living now? it's quite more easy if you're from Europe.

If I can help you in something, let me know

Just got back from barcelona a couple weeks ago. Paral-lel is still there but they took all of the main manual pad/ledges except for the main one that people skate as a ledge. They've put a few more larger ledges in the back and a little manual pad, and it's got a bit of a skatepark vibe now. But it's still very fun.

Hey Pals,

Doing a solo two weeks (maybe more) in Barcelona starting this weekend (aug 26th) and looking to see if any locals would be interested in meeting up to go skate?
I've got a pretty good idea of where everything is but its definitely nice having someone to skate with in a new city.

If ur interested lemme know :^)

I will like to make it but now my schedule is full of baby care duties. At least you will find an amazing weather after 15 days of rain. If I can help you with some advice feel free to ask!

Your old boy Grind King Rims has found himself drinking a pint in the airport, awaiting a flight to Barcelona. I've got a hostel booked (fucked up and didn't even look for air bnb, but I'm on my own). Where can I get a cheap deck, lads? Any recommendations?

Lots of love,
