DSF reports on past weekend's Summer Session in Hamburg-Pinneberg, and from the Street Session in Berlin in December.
Lars-Oliver Vogt, CEO Nice Productions: "In just three years, the T-Mobile Extreme Playgrounds have become Germany's biggest and most popular action sports platform. Our events guarantee top entertainment and world-class-level action sports. The sports featured are young, but spectacular all the same - my excitement towards these sports is unbroken. The DSF's interest in a TV co-op is my confirmation of our events being top-of-the-line. I'm especially happy for our competing athletes, as they gain another media platform as well." As media partner, DSF is going to air public announcement trailers, as well as 45-minute specials, next to streaming live on DSF.de. The highlight clips will be available as video-on-demand on DSF.de. See the Summer Session special on Saturday, Sept. 5th at 9.30am CET. The special reruns a week later, September 12th, at 9.15am CET.
T-Mobile Extreme Playgrounds: After a spectacular start in 2007, a very successful Dirt Session in Duisburg this April (featuring Mountainbike Slopestyle and BMX Dirt Jump) and a breath taking Summer Session this past weekend in Hamburg/Pinneberg (featuring the Wakeboard World Cup, and an international BMX Miniramp competition), the T-Mobile Extreme Playgrounds continue to combine action sports and music in a unique fashion. At three events per year the international top-athletes from their respective action sports compete for lucrative purses, while hot bands provide festival-feeling and variety. Organizing the event is Nice Productions GmbH in Hamburg, Germany. Initiators of the series are Andy Zeiss (rebeljam), Achim Kujawski (BMX Pro), Patrick Unger (Wakeboard Pro), Lars-Oliver Vogt, Norbert Link and Marc Feldmann. The three action sports pros and three experts from the music business create events from the scene for the scene, and can proudly look back on eight highlight events, featuring bands like Mando Diao, The Offspring, Sportfreunde Stiller, The Hives, Good Charlotte, Pennywise, Millencolin, Boysetsfire, Bullet For My Valentine and Rise Against.
