what fleur did last sunday...



nuther cardiel vid...

told ya i'd post more cardiel vids! this edit is a fookin classic...(dude even 360's a bmx at some trails near the start!)
also at about 1.30 there is a perfect example of how skateboards can suddenly kick your arse totally out of the blue!!!
i mean...look at some of the stunts he does on this video and rides away from, and then see how hard he slams here
just pumping down a flat bank!!! more cardiel to come!!! : )

check out the owl...

love the owl at the start of this vid!!!

old and new...

first video is from 1993. john cardiel has got to be 1 of my all time favourite skaters. infact i will post some
more of his vids over the coming weeks. cardiel got really badly injured in a freak accident a few years ago
now and was told he'd never walk again...but within months he was walking and riding bikes! dude even
skates again now, though it's obviously very difficult for him to do so. look how he rips the marsaille hip.
dude skates so fast and with so much style. i have got an amazing story about cardiel at marsaille...
but i will try and find the video that goes with it and save the story for then!!! second video is a chill session
at the thrasher skatepark from some cardiels antihero team-mates.

Gorge Road New Zealand



The good gent Chris has arrived safely in Queenstown, NZ, is getting sunburnt, and is riding trails...lucky man....shame I didn't get a job earlier as that'd mean I wouldn't have such a long wait till I can go enjoy some riding with Jimmy, Lol, Nath and the Gorge Road crew
Have to say the place looks dialed, hopefully I can get out there the start of March and hit those lush looking lines - thanks for the pics Chris, thanks for the dedication from the Gorge Road locals 8}(

cold and dry

cold up woods, and kinda dry for digging. moved some mulch so can carry on little twisty line (have an idea to link a few things together here) and also worked on the new berm bit. rain forecast for tomorrow.

indoor cement in hemel hempstead

berlin...

the first set of trails in this i've seen before...they're in a place called mellowpark a little bit outside of berlin. this
place looks pretty interesting, has loads of ramps, cement bowl stuff and even some indoor park stuff. tbh the
trails kinda look abit rough, and not that inviting to me here. but the way the whole city is surrounded by woods,
i sorta guessed there was very likely other trails around berlin...and about 1.45 into this vid there's a minute of
some other trails in some woods that look like a real nice spot. the music on this is terrible though!!!

Bicycle Union in Malaga

Ha - Looks like more english dudes get to visit Ruben's crazy spots too....

I wonder if anyone was mad enough to ask him to take them to the Bonsai hip ;)




think union will have a video out soon...

wet sunday...

fleur got filthy whilst me and kag moved mulch out the way for the landing of the monolip(th) in the pissing rain. using the mulch to make a new path from the gate up to the top of the wood, so you can't see the trails until you get up near the hut. plenty to do!

aitken and dugan

this is pretty funny! and it's good to see some more footage of aitken back on his bike after his terrible crash.
dugan's ability to go high never fails to astound me!!!
