Trucks and Fins is a huge present to the whole skate community - not just for the skating people, but also for shops, builders and schools. Super easy to use and can't believe how complete it is.

PUSH Leiria 2025 – Fonte Luminosa Goes Off!
The PUSH Leiria Skate Festival 2025 just wrapped, and man, what a week! One of the sickest sessions went down at Fonte Luminosa, a spot that’s straight-up legendary in the skate world. This year, we teamed up with none other than Carlos Viegas, aka “Guelas”, bringing the heat to this iconic plaza.

Fonte Luminosa – Leiria’s Street Skating Gem
If you skate in Portugal, you already know: Fonte Luminosa is the spot. Right in the heart of Leiria, this place was built back in the ‘70s as a fancy fountain, but skaters saw something else – perfect ledges, smooth marble, and endless lines. Over the years, it’s been a must-hit for pros and locals alike, with legends like Jamie Thomas, Chris Cole, and P-Rod rolling through. It’s been featured in Thrasher and other major mags, cementing its place as one of Portugal’s best street spots.

If you don’t know Carlos Viegas, aka Guelas, it’s time to get familiar. The dude’s been holding it down in the Portuguese skate scene for years, killing it in contests, and pushing skate culture forward. He’s been giving back to the scene, making sure the next generation is hyped and ready to roll.

PUSH Leiria 2025 – A Festival for the Culture
From February 17-22, 2025, Leiria turned into a full-on skate paradise. Organized by Trucks and Fins alongside NoComply Skate Association, the fest had everything: free skate lessons, workshops, art, music, and non-stop sessions. But the highlight? Fonte Luminosa went off. Skaters threw down hammers, the crowd went wild, and the city saw firsthand why skateboarding is more than just a sport – it’s a way of life.

Skate Never Stops
Leiria and Fonte Luminosa are now even more locked in as must-visit skate destinations. PUSH Leiria 2025 was a huge success, but this is just the beginning. Skateboarding’s on the rise, and with spots and events like this Portugal’s scene is only getting stronger. Keep pushing. Keep creating. See you at the next one!
