OverBored in Switzerland
I was recently in basel, Switzerland producing the Scope Art Exhibit adjacent to the renouned Art Basel Fair. Scope is a travelling collective of international art gallerists displaying current trendy contempory art created by today’s hottest artists. I was invited as part of the production crew scheduled to setup and teardown the entire Scope Basel event.
Wherever I travel, so does my longboard. I convinced three friends to bring their Bustin’s and we called ourselves the Strike Force. We were held up at the London security checkpoint and stripped of our boards. My friend Avalanche was even denied his seat on the flight and was delayed 5 hours until the next flight. Apparently European law is different, longboards in the overhead compartment is ILLEGAL!
