Short Films and Introduction to Skateboarding

Every year, young refugees arrive in Geneva, often alone and with no points of reference. For them, skateboarding can become a powerful tool for inclusion. This event will feature an introductory workshop, a welcome drink, and film screenings.

Rookie Slash is dedicated to promoting integration through board sports and outdoor activities. Skateboarding is an excellent way to foster social connections and a sense of belonging, as well as to experience city life from a fresh perspective. Come along to watch inspiring documentaries about skateboarding around the world, followed by a free introduction to skateboarding and a friendly gathering. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced skater, everyone is welcome!
