Den Devils Dirt Jump Contest 2010

Sorry for the delay, guys. I have been very busy lately and had no time to edit this one.

This was filmed in Maribor at the beginning of October. Hope you enjoy it.

EDIT: Here's the link to the Pinkbike version. Cast your vote for "Video of the day"!

Daniel Dhers DNA Teaser

Nothing particularly exciting in this video, but it's still worth sharing. The guys at DNA sure won't refuse a bit of free advertising (even though, I don't really think they need it). Follow them here.

Nik Pušnik Interview

Yes, Nik is hogging the front page today. I just found out that "Jergo" (Jernej Zadravec) asked him a bunch of questions for his Pinkbike blog. Check the quick Q&A here. All photos by Jernej.

Nik Pušnik One Year Edit

There are so many good things about this edit that I really need to list them all:
1) Nik is really progressing fast. I saw him at the Evolution Jam and he is really good for his age.
2) Dario Krnjak's filming and editing is awesome. I must say that this is his best production so far.
3) I love the Disney font.
4) I spy some sponsorship requests for the rider in the near future.
5) This is the 500th post on this blog. Hell yeah!

Nice Times in Baška Voda/Makarska

I don't know much about flatland, but it's nice to see that there is an actual scene in Croatia. This was filmed in April, edited and uploaded recently and somehow went unnoticed. It's also nicely filmed and definitely worth a watch.

Riders are: Frane Granić, Ante Bekavac & Leon Vignjević.

Udine Skatepark: UPDATE

Bad news: BMX bikes are not allowed in this park. Why? Because "the park was built with skateboards and rollerblades in mind, therefore it is not suited for BMX bikes".

Honestly, I don't see how a small city (because, after all, Udine is not that big) can have a skatepark that has such restrictions (same thing with the skatepark in Trieste). It's really a shame that cities (regions?) allow such discrimination.

Thanks to Iacopo for the news. Check the full article here and some more photos after the jump.

New LBC Team Rider

Rok Langus Žumer and his mustache are now officially part of the Ljubljana BMX Crew. Check some more pictures of Rok's riding on the LBC page. All photos by Tim Pipp.

Udine Skatepark

After a long wait, the skatepark in Udine is finally built. The concrete still needs about one month to dry correctly and then it'll be rideable. I still don't know if it's going to be skate-only or not. You can see more pictures after the jump and read an article (in Italian) here.

EDIT: According to the comments on the FreeUL Skateboarding site, the opening jam will be held on the 5th of December.

Ivan Perhat Imaš? edit

Ivan Perhat aka Štinjanrider is a young rider from the surroundings of Pula. There are some really nice street moves in this one.

Danny MacAskill Digdeep edit

One more video for Digdeep's Danny MacAskill. This time he's shredding the streets of London. It's not as impressive as his previous edit, but still pretty good.

DNA

...is finally online. As far as I understand, it's a multi-sport portal updated by the guys at Warehouse.

Check the page here.

The Shadow Conspiracy roadtrip

The Shadow Conspiracy shreds through Nevada, Arizona, and California.
Featuring: Trey Jones, Paul Ryan, Lahsaan Kobza, Scott Ditchburn, Drew Bezanson, Niki Croft, and Albert Mercado. Filmed and Edited by Miles Rogoish.

Woodward Camp Europe

Yes, it's true. Yes, it's pretty close to us (less than a 6 hour car drive from Umag). Yes, it's awesome. It's going to be located in Lenggries, Germany and it'll probably be open by mid 2012. Check the full article on FAT BMX.

Greg Watts Daydreaming

I've kinda neglected the whole MTB world in the last few posts, therefore I feel the need to make a post about the good old mountainbike. Here's Greg Watts' commercial for Haro bikes. It sure made me smile.

We Love Colorado

I still haven't had the chance to watch the whole thing, but, as far as the internet tells me, this is an awesome edit and will make your day (or maybe your whole week, who knows). Also, I do believe that it's hard for a T-1 edit to be bad. Enjoy.

Danijel Baumgartner - New Evolution team rider

Danijel aka Bangi is the new Evolution team rider. I'm not sure whether he's exactly "team" or "flow", but that's not really important. What you should care about is his latest video. I definitely approve of the song choice. Bowie is awesome.

Part of the clips in this edit were already featured in Daniel's old webvid. It's still a good watch and some of the tricks are nuts.

Shajba's new video "Mind the Gap" will be released in December. I love their productions, so I'm pretty sure this won't disappoint. Premiere event info here.

If you have 9 minutes of free time and don't know what to do with them, here you have a video of some great miniramp riding. Shot at the Skipass festival in Modena by the guys at We-Ride.net.

Mislav Mironovic 2010 GoPro edit

The beginning is hilarious. Awesome edit.

Testing the Canon 550d

My friend Tibor Huđik got his new Canon 550d. So he filmed me and
some other riders in the park. If you ask me, the Canon 550d is awesome.
He made some slowmo clips in this video. It's very interesting.
Filmed and edited by Tibor Huđik.

Celje street jam #2

Apparently, everyone is now using Twixtor for slowing down their clips. Filmed and Edited by Peter Prudič.

True Life

True Life is a film that will showcase Michael Beran's bmx lifestyle.
Michael Beran is from Czech Republic and he can shred. He is one of the top
riders in the world. He has bangers, style and also some very interesting tech
tricks.

DK Bicycles and Oton Bačar

Do you recognise the face in this ad? It's Oton Bačar's avatar on Vimeo. Too bad that you can't really read the story, since there isn't one yet. You can read Oton's assistent (aka Chincha) blog if you want to.

Anyhow, this post is related to this one. Hopefully, we'll get to see the videos soon. Read more to see Oton in action.

Indoor park in Zagreb?

The masterminds behind this project are Filip Strbad (who has been added to the DUB BMX team), Nikola Jagić, Luka Travaš and pretty much the whole street MTB/BMX scene from Zagreb. Looks great if you ask me and I'm definitely going to be riding (and helping) there at the beginning of December. Can't wait.

Check one post on Onlysteeze and the whole "Making of" gallery on Travaš's Facebook.

Fažana DIY Concrete

Something's happening in Fažana. Check Kmag's page for more info.

First bike tricks ever?!

This is Thomas A. Edison preforming bike tricks in 1899. and 1901., and I guess It's the same T. Edison who invented the light bulb. Pretty cool, huh?

Well, just watch the video.

Pannonian Challenge XI - Highlights + Q&A

One post, two features. The first one is a shorter version of the official PCXI video (kind of a highlights video), while the second is a quick Q&A with some of this year's Pannonian athletes. I'm still awaiting some riders' responses to the Q&A. If they do, I'll just add their answers in another post. Hope you guys enjoy the new features.




How come you've come to Croatia? Any particular reasons?

Andrew Jackson: Well my girlfriend is from Croatia and she was taking a trip to visit her friends and family. So Pannonian was a good excuse for me to go with her.

Daniel Dhers: Jura invited me while he was at Woodward so I decided to make the trip.
________________________________

A tough one, just for the Hungarians: Croatian girls or Hungarian girls?

Bazsi Ivanfi: This is a good one... As a Hungarian, I would say Hungarians :)

Bobo Ujvari: My hungarian girlfriend. :)

________________________________

Favorite part of staying in Croatia?

Bazsi: I have been to Split twice. That was my favorite part of staying in Croatia.

Bobo: Osijek, of course. I've never been anywhere else in Croatia.

Andrew: The Kolobarić family.

Daniel: The party and the people.


Andrew Jackson - P: Jernej Zadravec
________________________________

How did you like the contest (and the whole event)? What do you think could be improved for next year?

Bazsi: This was my fifth year in a row. I think that just about describes the way that I think about the contest. I really enjoyed the event this year too, even though I had to ride with a broken wrist.

Bobo: I liked the contest very much. I don't know what else could be better. The atmosphere was good, the riders were good, the course was good. It was good. :)

Andrew: It was amazing, I had so much fun. I don't think anything needs to be improved it was awesome. Maybe if I could have stayed for the last day and went to the dirt contest haha

Daniel: I think it was great, they definitely are putting their heart into it and that's what it takes!


Bobo Ujvari - 360 tuck - P: Tomislav Može
________________________________

Bazsi, Why were you cruising around the park with an axe the morning after Saturday's party? What happened that night (there are lots of stories, don't know who to trust)?

Bazsi: This must be a rumor... I can't remember it, so it did not happen. haha


Party people! - P: Davor Jug
________________________________

What was your own highlight of this year's Pannonian?

Bazsi: I just did regular tricks, nothing new.

Bobo: My own highlight was that I could ride. :) I was injured before the contest and i was happy that i did not dislocate my shoulder. So, for me the whole event was a highlight. And I've seen some high lights at the party, but that might have been because of the Pelin...

Andrew: At the contest was when Poki did that huge transfer. That was crazy.

Daniel: Just riding with the locals, getting to see a different style of riding.

________________________________

Are you guys coming back next year?

Bazsi: I'm going to try my best to go next year for sure.

Bobo: Yes! :D

Andrew: I hope so!

Daniel: I might come back in a couple of weeks! (EDIT: He's already in Slovenia, according to his latest Tweets)



Meeting Daniel Dhers - P: Nikola Radojičić

Any last words?

Bobo: Thank you guys that you're making this cool event year after year!

Daniel: Ride on!

Anthem II trailer

This. Is. Going. To. Be. EPIC!

Matej Kolenc Leftovers

I love Hang5's so there is not a chance of not liking this. Also, the filming is very nice. The tripod shots are very well thought out.
