The crew of Roadfools 14 started off riding Brian Foster's local park in New Jersey. BF lives 12 miles from the park and shows he's got the lines down including big 180-s over the concrete spine. Tobias Wicke does all kind of new liptricks (to the Americans that is) on the quarterpipe. New on the crew are two announcers who talk one video segment into the other. Leigh Ramsdell and Steve Crandall set up for a street session in NYC next. After letting the Sept.-11 drama sink in, it's off to the 3 feet high cobble stone bank for a shesh. As long as you have talent on board, it is possible to fill a whole section at a little spot like this. Edwin Delarosa makes a guest appearance in the Big Apple and Chris Doyle did a huge 180 over a street. T-Nez is soaking up a lot of the street coverage at this point and so is Chase Hawk.
Ian Schwartz gets a round of applause from the crew for a 6 stair bunnyhop to manual to 360 bunnyhop off. Day three: It's raining so the riding takes place at the indoor Incline Club, home of Scotty Cranmer. With Ryan Guettler around and the complete RF crew it makes for an insane park session with over and under curved wallrides (T-nes-Wade), crossfooted 3-whips and curved wallrides, more German tech from Wicke and more flair crashes from Wade than you like to see (yes he pulled it in the end).
Day 4 starts off with sunshine and a little sesh on a jersey barrier. Ghetto ramps get built which shows you don't always need full on skateparks to make things work. Back to the streets and wih a little imagination on how to make jumps out of picknick tables, another session was born.
More rain. Welcome the LD warehouse. Hickerson is getting off at this point with a busted wrist. Van Homan is on but crashes big a few minutes later. Hawk rides buzzed but it doesn't show. He's got style for miles and feels good at the LD bowls.
Day 5. The team hooks up with Wiz and rides some street stuff at schools and loading docks in Philly. Ross does 540-s both ways on flatbanks. Tobi does a tailwhip over a dustbin but throws his bike at Leigh Ramsdell who almost lost his pinky finger. After it got sewn back on at the hospital he made sure Tobi was going to pull the trick and he did.
FDR skatepark gets visited on the morning of Day 6. Chase Hawk is ripping again. Wade flairs a 4ft mini and Tobi loves the mini. Doyle is back on the bike and jumps half the park. One more rider (Chase DeHart) gets added to the crew thanks to an invitation of the youngest kid on the crew Chase Hawk. A street session followed in Connecticut until it got broken up by security.
Day 7. More rain, more indoor riding at the Ramp Farm (Warehouse). Crandall shows his graffity talent spraying a Roadfools logo. Wade: 720 to 3-whip. Schwarts rolls back on a funbox and tailwhips on top. Wicke goes tech once again and Van did an over Ice-Pick to back on a scary wall.
More rain, off to Rye skatepark in New Hampshire, another one of those crazy parks where you wonder how they keep it alive. Local Brian Hunt owns the place (riding wise) and Wade did another amazing flair. Foster went off in the bowls and van did a huge icepick to barspin on a wall. Wicke pulled a double tailwhip to wedge. Doyle went huge on a turndown transfer and T-Nez did an icepick on a 20 feet wall.
Overcast. Street riding in between the raindrops. Fenlon does a big 360 drop to the sound of some air guitars. The rain must have felt like home as he also 50/50-s up a big rail and 180 grinds a rail to 180. If that wasn't enough the UK rider did a 50/50 to barspin-out. Man, that Wade dude did a huge whip drop-in on a grass bank, truely insane.
NYC next. Street riding all day. For a change the sun was out. The extra pictures/images of the NYC people mixed in the filming give you a good idea where the riders actually were. The city that never sleeps didn't get to see much night riding. That was saved for next day for a dirt session at the Hooligan trails in Long Island.
Time for the bonus section now.
