Inside 114

This issue is a bit of a Sweet X SK8MAFIA special as we’ve got two double interviews with their riders. One with Eric Pettersson and Javier Sarmiento, the other with kickflip shiftying cover boys Wes Kremer And Josef Scott Jatta.

We’ve also cornered Cliché’s newest pro Flo Mirtain to ask him about working on Bon Voyage, how he feels about his new status and what we should expect from him in the near future.

As far as trips go we’ve got two pretty big ones in store for you. The first is this year’s Builders’ Jam in Bangalore with Stefan Janoski, Chet Childress, Lennie Burmeister, Rob Smith and many more. The second is an 80s launch ramp themed Parisian excursion with a few of our favorite European Converse riders including Pontus Alv, Jerome Campbell and Kevin Rodrigues.

There you go, now that you know what we’ve got lined up for you all you have left to do is pick up a copy before they run out!

The second friends section from Jo Peters’ 20.000 Leagues Under The Sea features includes footage from Sylvain Tognelli, Michi Mackrodt, Tjark Thielker and our very own Jan Kliewer. Quite a line-up…

A few lousy clips.

Here are a few clips from Europe’s first skate-underwear company: Lousy Livin. That obstacle looks really fun. I wonder how they carry it around though, it looks pretty heavy…

HolyStoked skatepark opening in India.

Those of you who follow us on Instagram you must have noticed that Jan and Alex have been in India with a crew of concrete lovers to work on a skatepark. Levi’s and the HolyStoked guys helped make this whole project possible and are having an opening event this Saturday with live music, drinks and local snacks. If you happen to be in Bangalore this weekend, come and check it out!

Betonhausen Shred-Triathlon.

Arthur Derrien — Tue, 22 Jan 2013 12:29:08 +0000

This DIY park is seriously the hardest thing I’ve ever skated, and I was practically on my own. Forget about skating it with that many people. Not only does it feel like you are skating the inside of a fridge, but its so cramped you can’t actually find the lines. If you’ve ever been to this place then you know how ridiculous the stuff these guys are doing is. Our very own Jan Kliewer kills it though!

Lennie Burmeister talking some Betonhausen roots & culture, and the boys shredding.

Sylvain Has Hit The Fan

Jan — Mon, 22 Oct 2012 11:03:57 +0000

Rugged and raw, just like the lurkers in front of the Kaiser’s in Sylvain Tognelli’s local Wrangel-district in Kreuzberg, Pulain is blasting out an edit of the best video-footy his mini photo camera could cough up. Strictly, bro-cam paradies.

Berlin in a nutshell by Jo Peters. Amazing.

The Drive: Jart Day 8

Alex — Wed, 23 Nov 2011 01:00:56 +0000

Endless wait in the motel parking lot. Seems someone forgot to arrange a way back for Nick and Ricky to get back to Spain and get their flights to US two days later. Oops.

I decided to shoot some evidence for the smallest/biggest bags of the trip. This was the smallest, which might not seem too small but I tell you he didn’t even use ¾ of its space.

Ricky, on the other hand, got the biggest one – but still not as big as Antiz rider Julian Dykmans’ one though.

I think we waited there for 3 and half hours.

After finally leaving the motel, we stopped half an hour later to eat in a gas station. After eating, the TM decided it was the perfect time to start a fire the old school way. Obviously, the strong wind blocked his intentions. But hey, on those 3 hour gas station stop we saw some Ferraris coming from a race or event, or whatever. How nice.

Jan, in a random stop to wait the van to catch up.

And we made it to Cologne. Die Fantastisch Dom.

Rain was present again, so it was time to call it the end of trip. One last photo before the end.
