Lifelong memories… and progress you can see when you get home.

Holidays where you don't count the hours — you count the tricks. Does your child live, talk and dream skateboarding? An Old Skullz Skate Camp isn't just another camp. It's a whole week of skating, laughing and challenging yourself, away from screens, close to friends, at unforgettable spots. Travelling camps at some of the best skateparks and spots in France and Spain. A real minivan road trip, just like the skaters they follow on YouTube.

Please note

Very limited places

Special experiences happen in small groups

To keep the atmosphere friendly, safety-conscious and high qualitywe deliberately limit the number of places on each trip.

The result

  • Small, personal groups
  • More time with the coach
  • More space at the skateparks
  • More opportunities to come home with a real confidence boost

Who are the Skate Camps for?

Beginner, experienced or budding prodigy.

We adapt to every rider. Our aim is to open the door to progress.

Old Skullz Skate Camps welcome kids and teens from age 10 (exceptions are possible) who want to have fun and progress. All levels are welcome, from novice to very advanced rider, as long as the passion is there. 

Groups are organised so nobody feels left behind or too advanced for the group.

Every rider has suitable goals, with a coach following their progress day by day.

Frequently asked questions — FAQ

What age and level do you need for a Skate Camp?
Our Skate Camps welcome enthusiasts from novice to advanced rider. Groups are designed so everyone can progress at their own pace, without pressure and with attention to safety.
Is an Old Skullz Skate Camp safe for my child?
Safety is our obsession, right after fun. Sessions are supervised by experienced, qualified professional coaches. Participant numbers are deliberately limited so every rider gets proper attention. Before departure, we send a clear summary: camp conditions, recommended equipment and staff contacts, so everyone knows what to expect.
Will my shy child or my daughter feel comfortable at camp?
Yes, and the atmosphere is one of our greatest strengths. Coaches pay close attention to each person. We don't throw anyone in at the deep end: we take time to help them feel comfortable on the board and in the group. The atmosphere is mixed and inclusive. The aim is to go home with wonderful memories, greater confidence, progress and new friends.
What's included, and what do parents need to provide?
The Skate Camp is “All Fun Inclusive”. Packages generally include accommodation, meals, skate coaching and additional activities such as surfing or outings, depending on the format. You or your parents should provide your skateboard, protective equipment, personal belongings and any pocket money. A detailed checklist is sent before departure.
What does a typical day at Skate Camp look like?
A typical day at Skate Camp feels like the best day of your life — or your child's! A mix of skating, progress, chill time, fun and a satisfying tiredness in the evening.

Their words, their experience

Memories that stay with you after camp.

12 experiences to explore. Their own words to give you a feel for the atmosphere and coaching.

Supervision

Pascal Nogaro — PARIS.

Our daughter has attended twice. Excellent technical coaching. Great memories and noticeable progress in skateboarding. Highly recommended 🤙🏻👍🏻🤙🏻

Confidence

Susan Pache — GERMANY.

My daughter attended the Avignon/Barcelona skateboarding camp and absolutely loved it! She had a fantastic time, learned a lot, and really grew in confidence on the board. The team spirit at the camp was amazing, and max created such a positive and motivating atmosphere. The supervision and care were excellent — we always felt she was in great hands. Plus, all the activities around the training sessions were well organized and made the whole experience even more enjoyable. She’s already excited about joining again, and we truly recommend this camp to anyone who wants to dive into the skateboarding world. A great experience from start to finish!

Coaching

Claudine R- PROVENCE.

My son has been skating with Old Skullz Skateboard for over 10 years and still wants more. The teaching is exceptional and the results are there. Between personal growth, enjoyment and pushing himself, he comes back happy after every session with Max and his team. Thank you a thousand times 💜🙌

First Skate Camp

Béatrice Colavita - MARSEILLE.

My 12-year-old son went on his first Skate Camp this summer. It was an extraordinary experience, full of emotion and sharing. He has wonderful memories and can't wait to go back. Max is a passionate coach and a great teacher. A huge thank you!

Barcelona

Martine Bossard - ORANGE.

My son started skating about 5 years ago. We met Max, and he took lessons, then holiday camps and, recently, an autumn Skate Camp in Barcelona. Max is a passionate professional who is genuinely human, friendly, always positive and attentive. My son loved the Barcelona camp: the skating, the atmosphere with Max and his friends, the campsite… He had an amazing week! The adventure will definitely continue. Thank you Max!

Group life

Lisa Van Reth — SWITZERLAND.

You feel a little blue coming home from an Old Skullz Skate Camp… only natural after ten days so full of memories and emotions. For our 14-year-old son, it was a sporting and human experience he'll never forget. For us as parents, it was the pleasure of seeing his skating improve and his understanding of group life and sharing develop. Thank you Max!

An experience to live

Esther Berg - SAN FRANCISCO.

BEST TIME EVER. Our 13 year old son called it one of the best experiences of his life. He had a blast. I signed him up from the States, sight unseen, based on my interactions with Max, who is the consumate professional and clearly loves kids and skateboarding. We hope to send him to skatecamp with Max again.

Skate Camps

C8 LPR

My son attended the Barcelona Skate Camp. It's an exceptional experience that goes far beyond skateboarding: a real sporting and human adventure. Beyond the quality of teaching, it's the philosophy and values shared with young people that make the difference. Max supports them daily with kindness and high standards, fostering mutual support, team spirit, independence, perseverance and confidence. My son came back having grown both as a skater and as a person. A huge thank you to Max from Old Skullz Skateboard for this quality coaching. An experience I recommend without hesitation!

Confidence

Julie In The City

An original trip built around a shared passion for teens, turning a simple holiday into a real life experience. Zach came back with more confidence, independence, enjoyment of skating and motivation for everything… Thank you Max for such personalised and open-minded support. Great job 🛹

A shared experience

Alex Nebout

Our son (13) spent a week at Skate Camp in Barcelona with Old Skullz. Not usually a fan of holiday camps, he went without really knowing what to expect… and came back more than delighted. He progressed in skateboarding and had an exceptional week, making real new friends and sharing great moments and values. He returned more mature, fulfilled and full of memories! Max was far more than a supervisor: like a big brother or mentor, sharing values, personal growth, the drive to push yourself and skate culture. Our son has already asked to go on another camp. Highly recommended!

Coaching & enjoyment

Olivier ROBERT

My 11-year-old son came back so happy after his week! I recommend Old Skullz and Max's supervision 100%. He had “the best week of his life” at Skate Camp in Barcelona! A great group of friends, skating all day, brilliant technical and mental advice to progress while keeping it fun! All he talks about is going back!

First trip

Alizé Gras — Skate lessons in Le Thor.

Max is an exceptional coach, passionate about what he does and inspiring in his incredibly kind, thoughtful approach to skating. Beyond skateboarding, he teaches life lessons too! He's motivating, always smiling and cheerful — a real pleasure! My daughter is 7 and has been attending his weekly club lessons for just over a year. It was already a success, with significant progress, and missing a lesson is out of the question! Recently she went away for a week at Skate Camp. It exceeded her expectations and ours: she came back delighted, having grown, and is already asking when she can go again. So whether your children want to learn skateboarding or you're an adult looking to start or return: go for it! You're in the right place!
