Barcelona has long been the European proving ground for skaters and this year is no exception as Nike SB invites amateurs from across the globe to compete for a total prize purse of €10,000, and the overall winner invited to take part in the Berlin Open where they will skate against some of the best Pros at Nike SB’s, The Shelter.
As per previous years, the Barcelona AM is held side by side with SLS Nike SB Pro Open that features the world’s elite street skateboarders, including Shane O’Neill, Nyjah Huston and Luan Oliveira. In total up to 61 global Pros will compete for the coveted Golden Ticket straight to the SLS Nike SB Super Crown World Championship, and for Pros currently not in SLS, the honour of securing the final two SLS Pro spots on the SLS Nike SB World Tour.
