We are Waldemar Fatkin and Camilo Gutierrez, professional bmx riders from Koblenz, Germany and Lima, Peru respectively. We have been ridden for the project deepbmx/autum bicycles from Berlin, Germany more than 6 years.

That place at De Valkendijk needed some work and in April we invited over some friends for a session to open up the outdoor season.

Two days out of the year it's time to prepare the jumps a little better for the visitors. This year the season opener will take place on March 28th, the 25th edition of the Mini FATJAM.

Moreover, these gloves score with a single piece palm layer to provide great fit without creasing especially when you clench the fist around the bar. This also results from a strongly pre-curved
