Kovalam Skateclub
The SISP Kovalam Skateclub is located in Kovalam, India and was founded in 2013 as a part of the bigger NGO SISP. With free skateboarding lessons we try to motivate the school drop-outs of the area to participate in the educational program of SISP.
The skatepark is a part of the S.I.S.P. free education center and will be open when the ocean is too rough to surf. BPL children are welcome to join if they follow one rule: 'No school-No Skating'!
