Dirt Jump Jam News

The dirt jump jam is tomorrow. Some riders are already here, some are coming tomorrow. I won't be posting anything for the next 24 hours, since there's a lot of work to be done.

Expect a lot of pictures as soon as I'm home Sunday morning.

The weather is nice. The dirt is dry. Tomorrow's going to be sunny. See you there!

Tell all your friends!

Trieste Timelapse

This is completetly unrelated and random. It's a project my brother had to do for University. I helped him by doing the editing for this timelapse (animated clock, rendering, etc.).

The building portrayed in this is a residential object called Melara, located in Trieste, Italy. Hope you guys like it.

Luka Salvari 2010 edit

Dirt Jump Jam News

Good news: the weather is fine for Saturday.

Bad news: No Demo show on Friday because of the rain.

Check out some preview pictures of the dirt after the jump.

Rok Krivec Carhartt edit 2010

Luka Kovic from Evolution sent me a preview of this a few hours ago. Now it's online. You already know who Rok Krivec is and you're probably not even reading this because you want to see him destroy some of the most famous spots in Barcelona (and Slovenia).

Enjoy.

Mislav Mironovic news

First one: Mislav's report from England and Switzerland is on Dropbike. He also mentions Umag, so be sure to read carefully. Hell yeah!

Second one: Mislav and Kiki are radio stars. Check them out.

Umag Dirt Jump Jam on the radio

Just in case you didn't hear Leo and me babbling about our contest on the radio, here's a link for your listening pleasure.

Thanks to Ivona @ Radio Sova (Radio Rijeka) for the link.

Koolt jam in Val Senales

New park in the middle of nowhere. Looks sweet to me.

Matej Kolenc Self-filmed edit

Not sure how some clips in this could be self-filmed, but alright. This is really nice. Ljubljana seems to be a great city for street riding. Or for riding in general, as well.

Marin Loncar 2010 web edit

Really nice video from Osijek. Marin is really close to clearing a perfect 720. Keep it up!

Switch

Switch is a Slovenian MTB/BMX movie by Blaz Tomazin. The rider line-up is amazing.

"From the creators of dot.Four movie we are representing a new perspective of a mountain biking life.
Switch. Switch to someting better, something newer, this is our goal in 2010 to shoot the movie that will combine some of the best Slovenian riders from downhill, freeride, street and dirt.

Dirt Jump Jam Umag

First for the basic info:

For the 3rd time in a row, we (BK "X-Team") are organizing an all-day dirt jump event in our hometown.

Everyone's invited. There will also be a ghetto 4X race like in the past years.

-----------------------------------------------------------



PROGRAM:

24. - 31.07.2010. - Photography exhibit by Milan Krkac aka Kaboom (Trg Slobode and Garibaldijeva)

30.07.2010. - Demo show - Zion jumpbox @ Trg Slobode

31.07.2010. - Umag Dirt Jump Jam and 4X 2010
- until 12:00 - Riders registration
- 16:00 - MTB 4X
- 18:00 - BMX/MTB Dirt Jump session + Best trick
- 20:00 - Award ceremony
- Afterparty @ ATP Tournament Umag

-----------------------------------------------------------

The Dirt part of the event is open to both BMX and MTB. Riders will have 3 jumps and a quarter at the end. Also, we'll try to build a good stepup jump for everyone to try their best tricks on it. The session will probably start later in the afternoon because of the heat, therefore the jumps will be open for riding in the hours before (for training, sessioning or whatever you guys feel like doing).
