Freeskatemag | PURI: Where have all the flowers gone? @Freeskatemagazine | Uploaded August 2023 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
The Russian invasion of Ukraine has led to an influx of young people from diverse backgrounds, including skaters, to seek refuge in Tbilisi and Georgia in general. This accounts for the non-homogeneity of the group of people filmed in the video project. With unlimited time of stay and access to the city, these guys have been able to really explore Tbilisi, discover new spots and bomb its hills, which have a distinct feel about them. Tbilisi undoubtedly has much more to offer and will hopefully establish its own presence in the European skate scene soon. - Lexo Sharangia
