Credits & Description:

We decided to devise a way to skate the “unskateable”: a board that perfectly fits the tram tracks. As the story unfolded through online and offline channels, a skateboarding community emerged around our riders and the FUEL TV brand. More than creating a brand promotion, we created a brand-new sport.

Synopsis:
Fuel TV is an action sports TV channel available in 70 countries, including Portugal. Skaters are a great part of our target audience.
How to engage with the skateboarding social community and create relevant, local, online content in a country where the streets are the nightmares of any skater?
The Cobblestone Riders project turned the Portuguese cobblestone streets, criss-crossed with tramway rails, into the perfect place for a new way of skating. We promoted this new sport with a radical online video series.
