Abenezer Temesgen, (born 1 October 1996), is an Ethiopian skateboarder, entrepreneur and artist. He is best known for founding the youth organization Ethiopia Skate, which aims to build the very first Skatepark in his home country, Ethiopia. He started the Organization at the age of 15 when he discovered Skateboarding, which was up to this point almost completely unknown in Ethiopia. Quickly he gained popularity among his people and others from abroad, which has led to a constant growth of the project. ==Early life==
Abenezer was born and raised in the 08 Sar Bet district of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, where he spent most of his childhood. In his early age, his friends and mother would describe him as being "hyperactive", even in his sleep he would roll back and forth so violently that he would often end up on the floor, so his mother had to put him in a basket to keep him from hurting himself unknowingly. When he was 14 years old, he met a few people from Finland who gave him a DVD which contained a video of Arto Saari doing his first street part, and from that day on he knew he wanted to become a skateboarder. He tried building his own skateboard out of a wooden plank with some furniture wheels attached to it, but it worked only for a short time before falling apart. After one year he met Mintesnot Semachew, who was skating on an actual skateboard on the way to a parking lot. When he saw him, he just ran towards him and his mother. Since Mintesnot's mother was concerned that her son might fall off the board and hurt himself one day, she insisted on her son giving the board to Abenezer. From that day forward, he never put the board down. The day after, Abenezer and Mintesnot met again and he taught him the basics about skateboarding. After some time, others got interested in his growing skateboarding skills and as he became more famous, sponsors started asking him to skate for them. Abenezer's best friend, Henock Yetbarek, who rented a room with his mother close to Abenezer's house, got interested in skateboarding as well. Abenezer taught him how to skate and so the idea was born to teach other kids the same thing.
