ANDY TOPPO

Andy Toppo

Hello everyone, my name's Andy. I've been engaging in various extreme sports my whole life. Kiteboarding, surfing, skimboarding and skateboarding are some of them. I've been skateboarding in Goa for a long time and I've personally experienced the rise in popularity of the sport in India. I got to witness some of the first ramps and skateparks being built (Goalis bowl, Cirrus) here as well as participate in the first small/local contests during Third Eye Tour (which may be insignificant to most people but it meant a lot to me at that time). I've participated in many more contests in the following years in Delhi and Bangalore which seemed to become bigger and more interesting each year. My old skate crew fell apart as some people left and some stopped skating, which lead me to find a new group of awesome people while street skating in Panjim. One fine day, my friend V' handed me a random board with a logo "painted" on it. He said he wanted me to try it out and tell him my thoughts on how it felt. I was skeptical about it being a suitable board for me as it was half an inch less wide than what I was used to. I skated it nevertheless and landed the new trick I was trying shortly after. I told him, "This board feels great!" The neatly-gripped board had the letters: P,I,S and O painted onto it.

He started off as a graffiti artist and illustrator and his growth as an artist led him to expand his expertise to different art forms, that are digital illustration & tattooing.

Skatesparks in rest of India

Rajasthan - There’s a big skatepark called “Desert Dolphin” in the middle of a desert.  It was built in 2018 by a group of skatepark builders and skaters called 100ramps. The park takes up 14000 sq.ft. of land and looks extremely fun to skate. The skatepark consists of about 70% transition and 30% street obstacles. It can be divided into two halves: The “big” half has a large bowl with 3 sections of varying depths, two tall extensions for boosting airs or doing stalls, and a spine for doing transfers. The “smaller” half has a mellower bowl with a hubba and a handrail going into it. There’s a perfect euro gap, a quarter pipe on the outer part of the bow

Pro-Life Skatepark (Meghalaya)- is one of the two skateparks located in the cloudy mountains of Shillong. It’s incredible to even think that skateboarding exists amongst the roller coaster like geographical terrain of Meghalaya. Only a few warriors are brave enough to skate in such a tough environment and it is them who built Pro-Life Skatepark. They are members of the local skate crew called Hucko. Shout out to the homie Giovani! I’d love to come shred the place with the crew one day. My goo
