Skate Highlights | Red Bull Drop In Euro Tour 2022

September through October 2022 saw the Red Bull Skateboarding team traverse five blowout demo stops across Europe, hosted by some of Europe’s finest talent along the way.

In what proved to be an international highlight of the European skate scene in 2022, Ryan Sheckler, Jamie Foy, Torey Pudwill, Zion Wright, Leticia Bufoni, Gustavo Ribeiro, Margie Didal, Alex Sorgente and Felipe Gustavo wowed the faithful who came out in amazing numbers to vibe with the team right throughout Barcelona, Marseille, Prague, Cologne and Amsterdam.

On top of the demos, we also got a lot of street skating done on some hallowed and legendary European skate terrain, from the ledges of Marseille through the stair-sets of Cologne and the handrails of Amsterdam.
