The Incase x Kelly Slater Action Camera collection is designed for GoPro users & outdoor enthusiasts in collaboration with Professional Surfer Kelly Slater and world-famous water photographer Todd Glaser. The line builds on the benefits of the Incase Action Camera Collection, while adding performance benefits for water & outdoor environments (like water-resistance and buoyancy). If you have to deal with the wet conditions (did anyone go to the UCI BMX World's in Zolder this year?), it will keep your equipment dry, which is always a good thing. The bag is designed for you to take your stuff with you and keep it safe.

The elite Pro dirt jumpers have made it to France for the 2015 Lords Of Dirt, a BMX dirt jump event that brings fans together from all over the world. Under sunny conditions the Amateur class finished their qualification rounds while the pro riders got some more practice in. Among them legend Cory Nastazio (USA) and former Dew Tour champion Brandon Dosch. The jumps were well prepared by Markus Hampl, contest organizer Patrick Guimez and the BMX Passion club who are hosting the event at their BMX facility which not only has the pro line but also smaller jumps and a pump track as well as a flatland area and concrete skatepark.
Riders from all over made the trip to France. Riders from Argentina and Leandro Moreira from Brasil will take on the competition from the likes of Simon Moratz from Germany and also Harry Main stepped to the dirt today with the fair share of nerves. Park specialist Harry Main received some tips from British Ben Wallace who was keeping it smooth through the lines in France. Nitro Circus
The annual FATJAM will take place at the trusty Sugar Hills on 22 August 2015. Once again BMX fans from all over will make the trek to Aarle-Rixtel for a quick visit to Paul's Boutique BMX Hardware Store at Dorpsstraat 66 in the morning before heading to the dirt spot at the Valkendijk. None of the FATJAMs are the same so also this year something special can be expected. Over the years we've had free beers, an Evel Knievel stuntman jumping from one side to the other side of the spot, and we've had free Vans waffles. We also had the BMX Olympics at the spot on the Valkendijk and beer races with the party machine. Flatland shows with Matthias Dandois and the Bike Devil? Check.
Needless to say, it's always a good time in Aarle-Rixtel. Mooon will play a live set and OJA has already opened their doors to welcome the FATJAM fans at night. 2 snackbars have stocked up on Frikandellen, Mexicanos and Kroketten so don't you worry about getting hungry. Together with some Bavaria, the puke will look interesting.
