So Scotty called me from the hospital and said Big Boy I need you down at the hospital asap! I said Why? Because we are putting my teeth back in. That is enough said right there. NONE OF US ARE DENTIST.
Sometimes the events where you have the least expectations turn out to be the best. Pier 15 skatepark opened up for a night of BMX. The best day of the week was picked to allow BMX at the skatepark for five hours: Monday. Some Fontys students were involved to get the jam going but Paul and I had no clue on what to expect. On arrival we were gladly surprised by the number of riders present. Pier 15 is a real street-ish park and we counted around 50 riders around 7pm. The Paul's Boutique banners were put up in a few minutes and the prizes were handed over to the students to display on a table. The park was open and the so was the bar.
The session was on with riders like Niels Mertens, Benoit VDG, Joeri Veul, Frank Nabuurs, Sem Kok, Jesper Vervoort who were later joined by Milan and Janos Baars, Steijn Leijzer, Sybren Planting, and Daan van Wezel. Daan did find something big in Breda by double pegging the rail of the balcony out of a tiny quarter pipe. It took a few tries, but he got it done.

Dylan Lewis is a transition and dirt SHRALPER who made an uncanny appearance at this past year's Van Doren Invitation Bowl Comp, blasting higher than nearly everyone else. Dylan goes soooo high but somehow makes it all look effortless.

Going to Malaga to film a video? Well, Ruben takes us through the essentials before etnies teammates Sebastian Anton, Jordan O'Kane and Harry Mills Wakley take on the task many have previously undertook. These three young'uns came through in a big way for this one - not your average Malaga edit!
