After some really heavy snowfalls, Parkdesigner Simon Abel and his crew did their best to reconstruct the set up for the first shooting of the season. ARC rider Benny Deeg and Markus Wilhelmi had a great day in the newly opened jib line in the Pleasure Diedamspark.

Little pillow drop in his backyard called “Jakobshorn” in Davos. Nice backyard. One must know that Aaron Berger actually is gardiner by profession, so when the flowers are covered he needs to get busy in a different way, as long as it’s outdoor.

The Nixon ART MOSH European tour landed in Munich for the first time on Sunday 6th and Monday 7th of February in partnership with ISPO and Factory Media.

This latest editon of Nixon ART MOSH took place in Munich Old Post Office a warehouse-style loft space, which was the perfect spot to discover some emerging talent from the German art scene and an eclectic mix of fine artists, graphic designers, photographers and illustrators.

Nixon supports emerging and established talent in the fields of art and music, and unites artists and production team with the common goal of creating buzzy, energetic “Pop Up” exhibitions.
The show sponsored by ISPO featured artwork from the board sports world with work from Danny Burrows, Axel Pauporte, Mike Blablac and Yes represented by Romain de Marchis and JP Solberg.

Amplid pumped millions of dollars into French Ambush rider Yannick Prebel’s latest film project POWrno from FRESH CREAM MOVIES. Forget the RED Epic or even the Canon 5D mkII, POWrno was shot exclusively on GoPro to give it an edgy “Blair Witch Project” POV kinda feel. Although we can’t quite work out where the millions have been spent, there’s some nice powder shots, a close-up of Yannicks earphones and some conclusive evidence that Yannick needs to work on his stickering skills. “Sometimes weather can be very bad, somtimes very good. It just depends on your point of view”. POWrno, not coming  to a cinema near you, ever.
