Sleepless tour, day whatever? Day 2 or 6? does WC count?
2008-02-12 12:43


We started off to complete chaos, of course, thats the conference for you, its all part of the fun. We are all together now and juiced to skate, really juiced.

Theres about 15 of us, as it goes, Adrian Wallace decided to proove his loyalty to Deshi and the conference by a 2 day stay in frankfurt hahn airport, that kid is just too awesome, i would love to get some great new footage of him to push him further into the limelight, to show why he is one of my favourite skaters!

Anyway, we slept for the first time last night since friday night, so that gave us some time to recharge the batteries. Its a good crew of people, theres a great vibe and a nice buzz in the air. I have a feeling we are going to get some amazing footage and pics today.

To clear up the Billy situation.
2008-02-14 13:56
I was checking around and people seem pissed about how we put this clip online.

Basically if you think about it, we wouldnt publish it if it was serious, if you were here with us it would all make more sense.

We have it all on film, all the ensuing action too. Billy is OK. He has 2 twisted ankles, so he cant walk, but he is fine. We were all laughing about it, he wanted to put that clip online, we spent all evening with the police and the hospital, everyone looked after him, we are a great supportive crew here at my house and to be honest we were all sitting around watching it and talking about how lucky he was.

He is in great humour and we werent using it as an advertisement, or promoting a DVD, we just wanted to share what happened with everyone, because it was a miracle escape.

Im really sorry people are offended by it, i understand it though as we ourselves still see it and cringe, and at that moment we all wanted to die...

Billy is sitting here by my side watching "Jay and Silent Bob strike back" and is laughing away.

NEW CHIMERA TEAMRIDER: CARLOS PIANOWSKI
2008-02-16 00:14
When the Chimera Conspiracy started some years ago we thought of Carlos being the perfect teamrider for our wheel brand. It never worked out until the 9th of February 2008 when Mr. Hardcore Brasil joined our Rogue Squad. If you went to the Winterclash you must have seen him wearing the new Caro Zipper.

WELCOME CARLOS.

"Moin Moin" is typical nothern german slang, which is often used the whole day and not only in the morning.
My son Colin was rollerblading with his younger brother Connor that day and...I knew that there would be a chance for me to catch minimum one situation for a little shot.
