Let’s Skate!

From their announcement of landing in Lagos back in 2016, WAFFLESNCREAM has gained a notable amount of attention over the years. They have built up enough awareness on skateboarding and the culture that inspires and connects lovers of the sport across the world. Meeting with the owner, Jomi Bello, as well as skaters, Fahd Bello and Gray, we got the chance to visit one of their frequent spots and find out the importance of building what would be the first public skatepark in West Africa. 

Donate to the skatepark.

“We want the skate scene to explode. We want pro skaters coming out of Lagos. We want to see African skaters on a global stage skating for our own reasons. We want people’s jaws to drop when they see what we can do. Here it’s like life isn’t always constant, water isn’t always constant, light isn’t always constant, but skating is constant. We kind of have to work our way through everything. So we want to have pros coming out of here so we can self-sustain our scene. We want to show the world what our city is like on our own terms.”
