Watch: Marek Zaprazny Rips Through the Streets of Barcelona in the Latest 'MOB First' Episode
Marek Zaprazny might not be from Barcelona, but he clearly knows his way around this skate-friendly city. Skateboarding in Barcelona is a beautiful thing and this clip will definitely have you itching to get out there sooner than later. Great spots. Great scene. Great food. Tag along with Marek and press play: From his local shop to his favorite warm-up plaza, the day starts out cool and calm. But it's Marek we're talking about here, so you know the session heats up quick. No ledge in that plaza is safe. And what would a session in Barcy be without a proper acai bowl to add some fuel to the day? The boxes are being checked. Advertisement 💻 Don't miss another headline from TransWorld SKATEboarding!

But our guy makes use of the last remaining spot the plaza has to offer and secures a few clips in the meantime. (Tap the post below to learn more.)

Actually, let's be real—he destroys the spot, rifling off trick after trick like it was a normal-sized three-stair. Advertisement All in all, it looked like a pretty successful day for Marek, if you ask me. And honestly, I like that this wasn't just your average tour of Barcelona skateboarding, you know? MACBA and all the iconic spots the city has to offer are great, but there's so much more to skate that many of us often don't get to see.
