Placed to Ride recently finished a park in Peñuelas, Puerto Rico. It’s on the south side of the island about a half an hour drive from Ponce, the second largest city in PR. PTR’s Stefan Hauser also has an interview on EuropeSkate.

A Sofia Maldonado has a mural up in Times Square, NYC that has made some locals hopping mad, although you wouldn’t be able to guess why if you only saw the part we’re featuring here. Sonia is of Cuban and Puerto Rican descent. She was also involved in a project called Skate My Patria that brought skateboard equipment donations to Cuba in 2009. – Thanks to David Illingworth for the tip
