Is an amazing spot, the only one of this kind in the Czech Republic. Stoka is located 70 km to the west from Prague. It is a tunnel “fullpipe” ended with the channel with over vert. Its concrete walls were perfect place to remake and renew the bottom part, which than fluently passed to the oververt and now presents this few meters long spot.
Step by step building of this spot was very spontaneous. First, only the fullpipe was concreted, but it was clear right after, that this will not be enough. It needed to be continued at least few meters out of the tunnel. The crew was coming weekend after weekend with hands full of sacks of cement, carrying water from the nearby river, concreting and squilgin to the smooth finish so they could ride their dream spot as soon as possible. Two concreted meters from the tunnel were finished by big bowl. With regard to the whole length of the tunnel, it still seemed to be short, but the finance available was already used. This is when DC Shoes Company was address as a potential sponsor and provided the money needed for proceeding.Thanks to this financial help, the weekend marathon could start again and new concreted meters appeared every day. Every new meter was complete by new design and the final appearance was always unknown. The whole project was finished by miniramp and the spot now has 30 m with possibility to continue.
STOKA is hidden in the beautiful nature and is not easy to find. The journey there is an adventure by itself. Imagine going thru pure nature and than suddenly you can get unbelievable view of the long tunnel. Seems like appearing from nowhere, ready for all fans of D.I.Y. and all other radius fans. We believe in longtime lasting of the spot and another meters of pure skateboarding.
