Discovering The Highest Skatepark In The World with Danny Leon | Skatepark SafariJoin us on an expedition to learn the story of the world’s highest skatepark! The Pura Pura skatepark in La Paz, Bolivia, is nothing short of a 1,200 square-metre DIY skate miracle. Formed in 2014 in a collaborative effort undertaken by the mighty Make Life Skate Life non-profit organization alongside co-ordinator Robin Höning and local Bolivian skaters like Milton Arellano and Kenny Davalos, this unique space was constructed in a little under a month by an army of over a hundred volunteers from fifteen countries who ascended on the space to create skateboarding magic. And ascend is the right word: at more than 3,500 metres above sea level, the oxygen in this Andean world is thin and any activity here is almost instantly exhausting. Our intrepid skate squadron was marshalled together by Marc Churchill, one of Britain’s most widely- respected skaters. Daniel Vargas, Samantha Narvaez and Danny León were drafted in to take the trains, planes and automobiles necessary to skate on the rooftops of the world. We were on our way to meet La Paz locals Donna Lozano, Pedro Rodriguez and Kenny Davalos to learn about what the creation of Pura Pura means to them. As Donna shares of her new domain: “Every grain of sand, every effort put into the making of this skatepark means the world to us.” That, friends, is the magic of skateboarding.
