ESC Basel is back!
We are stoked to be part of the Skate.ch ESC Basel from August 26 to 28. Check www.skateboardeurope.com for more info! Be One With The Bowls!
Two brothers from different mothers are finally reunited! The Blackcrossbowl meets Port Land. To celebrate 15 years of starting DIY concrete in Basel and the upcoming 10 years of Port Land (Summer 2022) we teamed up with Chris Haslam @waywardnephew and his @ballbarians series for new Swiss made boards by Word Skateboards. Grab one in the shop here on the site. Covers baby!
Stoked to see Cedric aka @kidoost on the cover of Confusion Mag, transfering from the rainbow into the Igor Bank! Freakend at Port Land
There’s 2000€ and goodies for the Cash for Tricks and Locals Wish List sessions. Live concerts, food & drinks and a freakin good time! Camping on site is possible. We‘d love to welcome you in Basel! Hit us up if you have any questions!

Fuck Fear Drink Bear
Four words taken from a graffiti on the Blackcrossbowl perfectly describe the six years era of the legendary concrete DIY skate project in Basel. For some the bowl became a temporary living room for a few months every year, but even in the winter you could find people skating and hanging out by the fire regularly. The spirit of the Blackcrossbowl sparked and inspired other skateboarders all over Europe to take fate in their own hands and build a scene for themselves.The FUCK FEAR DRINK BEAR group exhibition marks the ten year anniversary of the beginning of the Blackcrossbowl. It looks back and forward to explore and document the DIY spirit that is engrained in skateboarders everywhere.
Das Boot
We had a blast on Saturday! Thanks to the etnies Team for coming by Port Land on the Wish You Were Beer Tour!
