NBR presents the Red Bull DVD "loading". What makes this premiere so special looking back at the past two? The event is located in the local park, MEKER! Not many people from the Netherlands have ever been there. Therefore it's an opportunity for all the riders to go and check what Zeeland has to offer..... Next to that the entrance is FREE and the beer is at an all time low price.

This means the NBR kicks things off with a jam format in their skatepark. From 13:00 till 19:00 the riders will be able to explore what Meker has to offer. Tech lines and a lot of cool wallrides. Paul's Boutique is sponsoring the goodies for best trick overall-best tech line & best wallride!

Around 21:00 the DVD "Loading" will go in action, showing all the skills of the riders who went on the road trip but also showing the amazing talents of editmaster Dwayne Verkade. Hands down.....

With echoes of cars above you and trains rattling past and the sounds of feet walking over broken glass, you are happier than ever at 6am in the cold waiting to drop into a homemade ramp with sketchy transitions and cracks in the floor.  Underneath 95 covered in dirt and homemade concrete, at one of the southern most points in Philadelphia exists a cultural icon of public space built by the determination of young kids. Right now this is the only legal public place to ride a BMX bike in Philadelphia and it is FDR.  BMX sessions there are from six in the morning until 9 in the morning.

It's about X-mas and companies are throwing parties and give out presents to their employees. At Vans they got a Ragga band and ordered a truck load of In-N-Out Burger food. Wow, how good it this?! 
Here's what Rob-O ordered:
"A Double-Double with Fries, Diet Coke and a Strawberry shake please? and a cheeseburger for Fatty."
   In-n-Out worker: "No Fries, just chips."
"Whatever bro, I'll take it and send the bill to Santa!  Thanks" 

We got a bunch of links to short movies for you if you're bored and want to watch some riding.

MADISON, Wis. - December 20, 2005 - TJ Lavin is one talented guy, and Schwinn Bicycles has re-signed him to showcase his talents with the Schwinn brand. Growing up in Las Vegas, TJ was drawn to BMX racing as a young child, and showed potential as a top contender almost immediately. He soon discovered dirt jumping and before long found almost unparalleled success, having been crowned the "King of Dirt" in 1995. In the X Games he has medalled several times over, taking the bronze three times, the silver once, and the gold twice, his most recent medal being in 2004. He has also been a DK Dirt Circuit Champ, a champion in the Gravity Games, and a CFB Champion.

“I’m excited to represent the Schwinn brand,” said Lavin. “Schwinn’s been really good to me for the past few years and I’m glad to stay in the family.”

Outside of his successes on the track, TJ has also developed a plethora of talents off the track. He has appeared on Cribs and starred in a documentary film. He is also featured in his own video game, MTV Sports: TJ Lavin's Ultimate BMX.
