Nike Sportswear x WoodWood

wood_wood_nike_sportswear_lunar_wood

Check out BeingHunted for the full story about the nice collaboration between WoodWood and Nike Sportswear on some special nice Limited LunarWood TZ. Those sneakers are simply sick. Perfect for urban jungle, and ACG label is the best for all weather conditions that we have here.

I was really up on those shoes, but, impossible to find….big disappointment ! Thanks to Santa Claus, a WoodWood shop just opened its doors downtown Vienna (i didn’t get the shoes…) but if you’re around, for sure go check and have a look to this new shop, sick stuffs inside. More pics after the drop (more…)

The Copenhagen wheel project.

cph_wheel087

The Copenhagen wheel is a great project that can turn your normal bike into an electric and intelligent bike if you link it to your smartphone.

Smart, responsive and elegant, the Copenhagen Wheel is a new emblem for urban mobility. It transforms ordinary bicycles quickly into hybrid e-bikes that also function as mobile sensing units. The Copenhagen Wheel allows you to capture the energy dissipated while cycling and braking and save it for when you need  a bit of a boost. It also maps pollution levels, traffic congestion, and road conditions in real-time

Check the video after the drop and more pics… (more…)

Timo Pritzel’s CoffeeTalk.

Timo-intro

Nearly eight years now that i met Timo for the first time . And back in the days, he was the first real “pro” dirtjumper that i had the chance to meet. It was at the BikeShow in Birmingham and even dirtjumps at the time were not really as huge as now, Timo was killin’ it on them, throwing huge flips on his first try…You can always expect the most insane things of him on a bike, as much as he’s mellowguy off the bike. Few years after, i had the chance to work more closely with him, travelling, filming, and he became a good friend. Now he’s 32, and i can tell you one thing, you can still expect the much of him as soon he’s riding his bike. That’s maybe what’s make the difference between normal people and pro’s, the abitlity to swith off the fears sometimes héhéhé… Anyway, here’s my christmas present, the Timo Pritzel’s CoffeeTalk. Enjoy and watch out for some 2010 sick things from him ! Thx to Viktor Strasse for the trail+street pics and Daniel Geiger for the freeride ones…

CoffeeTalk with Lluis Lacondeguy

Lluis-portrait

Lacondeguy is a huge name in the MTB world. Since they came like asteroids during the Adidas Slopestyle, killing lines with huges tricks, Lluis and Andreu are at the top of the game. Andreu has always been the little crzay kid when Lluis was the most reliable of both (héhéhé…) It doesn’t mean that Lluis is more calm, just party with him once and you will understand, just that he’s playing also his big brother role. Beside beeing of the best rider of the show, Lluis is still the cool spanish guy that i used to see on races back in the days… (more…)

Either if you’re into car or not, you can’t miss that one. Pefect combnation of retro-style and modernism (sounds ike a déjà-vu….maybe the perfect blend).

“SPECTRUM” full movie on Watch26.

Spretrum-intro

SPECTRUM is online on Watch26 ! It’s not that i’m lazy (or maybe) but i’ll not give you the whole press release here, but there’s no point at the moment that you miss this video. Eastern countries will play (if they are not already playing) a big role in the future of mountain biking, and i’m pretty sure that you can count of those guys at FullFaceProductions to make it happen. Gaspi opened the way to a lot of new comers. So check out the movie and pics after the drop, lay back and enjoy ! (more…)

Check it out after the drop. (more…)

CamelBak_AMF_2010_TrondHansen_3_UnpackingForSession_byJoakimAndreassen

Trond Hansen is a new member of the internatinal CamelBak team.

All this after the drop (more…)

CoffeeTalk with Linus Sjöholm

Linus-Whip

I first met Linus during last 2008’s Days of Thunder. Filming the swedish team, i can tell you that it was pretty sick as all those riders weren’t really familiar to me before. Linus was part of the team. Pretty mellow and chill off the bike, he became wild and technical once riding. This year, i was really impressed how he improved his riding again. Following the steps of his buddy Martin S, i can tell you that you gonna hear about Linus soon…Before that, let’s discover him through this little chat. (more…)
