“Young kids grow older, parents are left with empty nests and new cities must be explored.”
Our video columnist Paul Herrmann moved away from his beloved “Franki” to join us in the streets of Berlin, thus this column can be seen as a goodbye to Frankfurt and its skaters.
Featuring:
Luis Waterkamp, Tim Thomas, Clemens Dembinski, Philipp Weil, Luis Kohl, Don Simonelli, Mario Ungerer, Julian Mack and American Max Schofer.

Paul Herrmann has been coming through on the regular with his video column and instead of showing another highlight reel from his “Welcome To Franki” project he hits us with a fresh dose of footage. We were positively surprised when we saw Mannheim footy pop up in this edit maybe we will see another one of our columnists in one of Mr. Herrmann’s edits soon.
Featuring: Yunus Ergen, Luis Waterkamp, Tim Thomas, Bernhard Glimm, Marcel and Deo Katunga skating around Mannheim and Frankfurt.
Another month another installment of Paul Herrmann’s video column. As with the last installment, this one takes us further back behind the filming for “Welcome to Franki”.
Highlight of this video is definitely Tim Thomas’s makes and fails.

Today we are premiering “Welcome to Franki” a skateboard video by a young filmer out of Frankfurt named Paul Herrmann. The video was shot in Frankfurt, Berlin, Barcelona and the French capital of Paris. It gives you a good insight into what young German skaters are doing (mostly in Frankfurt and Berlin) but it also has some mainstay people like Kai Hillebrand, Valentin Cafuk, and Timo Meiselbach. All in all we back Paul in his efforts and are proud not only to host the online premiere of his new video but also to welcome him into the PLACE squad. From now on Paul will produce a monthly video column for all of you to enjoy but first things first, take a seat, make yourself comfortable, press play and welcome yourself to Franki.
