If you thought Copenhagen was fun, 2er (=Zweier) on fire should be your gig. Hanover, Germany’s soon to be number one DIY spot will hold its anual skate down, including – of course – fire, live music, beer and camping. The new snake run section shlould be finished soon, so pack your tents and head on over!

CLASH 2011 On Its Way!

Jan — Tue, 05 Apr 2011 07:55:25 +0000

Skatehalle Berlin will hold another round of its illustrous series of invitational comps, the CLASH, on May 21st/22nd. Some sick riders have signed up already and even big names visiting from overseas are a regular at the Berlin-Friedrichshain based shred fest. The street course is looking at getting a facelift, the bowl has been treated with an additional corner with sick granite coping, and they will even host a vert competition including “Kings of Doubles”.

Saturday night will see a show of UK underground Grime heads, “Foreign Beggars”…

Should be a good one, once more! Stay tuned to these very pages for more updates or go to the Skatehalle Berlin site.

Youness On Some King Pin Shit In Cypress

Jan — Tue, 07 Dec 2010 10:41:53 +0000

Well, no photos of the skate action here, as they got denied by the on site photographer who is taking care of displaying the real deal action. So it’s straight to side pics then…

While old men Lennie and Marcel were chilling, having on-spot lunch, the skate-unit came stopping by for refreshments…

Wieger got a sick line here at this spot…

and so did Youness. I think it was in Troodos… amazing town, by the way, definitely worth a visist!

As I said before, sun drops quick in Cypress, so after this session, another lovely sundown followed.

Besides skating and harvesting bangers everyday, one of the big attractions of our Nike filming trip was Space Bowling (oh yeah, and thanks for your wi-fi, guys!), a bowling alley just across from our apartment’s backyard.

First day, the staff there didn’t really get our names right. So Wieger’s name on the score-screen appeared as “Niger”!

He kept killing it almost every night; the toughest competitor for semi-pro Mark Nickel’s run for instant victories…

For the second game we told the staff about the spelling mishap, so they took care of some adequate corrections…

Anyway, time for midnight bowling – didn’t know that existed!!

By the end of this, it turns out, Youness seems to have a fucking talent in all sorts of sportive activaties… 202 on his first round ever!!

Which got him so hyped, he had to stand on his head for a while to chill out. Besides being pretty good even at that – what strange way of chilling out! But seems to work for him though.

Some more Keos followed, and then it was the end of that night.

Antiz Hobos ride again

Jan — Sat, 21 Aug 2010 18:22:52 +0000

The fearless blokes over at Antiz are about to embark on yet another more or less showerless hobo ride. This time around Belgium and especially Brussels-terrain will feel the wrath of their shredding sticks or shiver from their odors.

So it’s good they keep feeding their daily blog, so you can keep a safe distance.
