Training at VB Skate

For everyone – in their own way

You need to be a member to join – it’s easy to sign up.

With us, skateboarding is not about being the best – it’s about belonging.
We offer sessions for children, youth and adults, focusing on safety, joy and developing at your own pace.

You don’t need any previous experience. Curiosity is enough.
Unless stated otherwise, sessions are drop-in and drop-out.

Ages 16–18?

Family Sessions

During winter we offer family sessions at Dalbanan for members who want to skate together with their children. When enough people show interest, the club schedules a session where everyone can skate together in a calm and safe environment.

We have a club rate per hour, shared among the participants. A club representative is always present for opening, closing and safety.

Want to join a family session? Send us an email: kontakt@vbskate.se.

Adult Skate

Not close to 50 plus?
If you are an adult who wants to skate but don’t fit the 50 plus group, we can arrange extra adult sessions during winter when enough people show interest. The club rate is shared among participants, and a club representative handles opening, closing and safety.

Our Coaches

Marcus – Head Coach

"Skateboarding is freedom. I want to share that feeling."

Marcus has been skating since childhood. He loves street but enjoys anything that rolls. As a coach he is engaged, attentive and encouraging. He knows how to support you whether you are a beginner or experienced.

René – Coach

"I learnt 99% of everything I can do on a skateboard after turning 40. It's never too late to start!"

René had a fair amount of life experience before he started skateboarding - but he'd never experienced such a welcoming, friendly, encouraging and diverse community. Add to that the physical and mental benefits of skateboarding, and you can understand why he's keen to share his love of skating with everyone who's interested, no matter ther experience.

Oskar – Coach

"More soon"

Kalle – Coach

"Skateboarding should always feel fun – otherwise we are doing it wrong"

Kalle is an experienced skater with a heart for street but enjoys ramps too. He is friendly and attentive, and as a coach he creates a safe space where everyone dares to try. With Kalle beside you, nothing feels impossible.

Katalina – Assistant Coach

"I started as an adult. That makes me extra attentive."

Katalina is on her own skate journey – and it shows in the way she meets participants. She helps create an environment where you can be nervous, curious or simply yourself.
