Converse | #Macbachallenge

Converse | #Macbachallenge

Internet y las redes sociales han traído consigo nuevas formas de comunicación y, gracias a la llegada de este tipo conexiones entre seres humanos, hemos asistido a todo tipo de fenómenos virales. Seguro que recordarás el ya célebre reto del cubo de agua y hielo o todos esos cráneos atrapados en un condón, pero los de Converse han encontrado una forma de llevar los desafíos online al mundo del skateboarding. #Macbachallenge es un evento con la plaza barcelonesa de Macba como telón de fondo y las vías de difusión fueron los perfiles de Instagram de los implicados. 
Los encargados de retar fueron Miguel Prieto, Cristian Sánchez y Dani Quintero, todos ellos miembros del equipo nacional de Cons y encargados de representar a las tiendas locales Collective, Tactic y FTC respectivamente. Miguel patinó durante una tarde en la plaza y retó a hacer lo mismo al skater canario Pablo Ibaute Pérez y al local de Macba Arnau Truque. Cristian Sánchez opto por Deniz Yilmaz y el joven patinador Jesús Barrios, que quizá fue el que más sorprendió por ser el menos conocido, y Dani tuvo buen ojo al seleccionar para el desafío a José Vivero “Sixas” y al siempre original Fred Plocque

El evento, que sirvió para que todos los implicados probasen las nuevas Converse One Star CC, fue posible gracias a la colaboración de la compañía con Macba Life y las anteriormente mencionadas tiendas locales. Ya con todos los vídeo publicados, se puede afirmar con rotundidad que ha sido un auténtico éxito. Cada uno de los clips ha recibido miles de reproducciones y tiene toda la pinta de que no será la última vez que veamos algo parecido. Aquí puedes disfrutar de las fotografías capturadas por Roger Ferrero durante las sesiones de filmación, además de una pequeña muestra de los vídeos, pero no dudes en buscar #Macbachallenge en Instagram para disfrutar del resto de clips. 

También te dejamos por aquí el clip en el que los chicos de Macbalife han recopilado los mejores momentos.
