Posted by pb1001 on Feb 6, 2013 in Videos | 0 comments

Crazy stuff that you should never try at home, even if you happen to have a freeway going through your living room.

Quoted from Vimeo:

DO NOT even think about trying this! Erick Garcia (ESG) is a boss that has been doing this for years.

Now the time has finally come to showcase what he has been up to this past year. Although his passion has always been for street and park skating, he has always loved the feel of speed beyond normal conditions. Erick would also like to pay homage to Video Groove Magazine (VG with the song selection, as he has been in the game for 20 years now and to be frank, he just keeps it OG… Enjoy, JSF!

The Barcelona Sessions III – Skitchin’

Posted by pb1001 on Dec 16, 2011 in Videos | 0 comments

“Crazy skaters fly from car to car in 60mph traffic..” – Video below.

Richie Eisler comes back with another hit. This time The Barcelona Sessions series focuses on the long lost art of Skitching. Sit back and enjoy another fresh edit from Richie Eisler and The Powerhouse.

Quoted from Vimeo, “”…Guess we’re supposed to change the world… Come on, I want to show you something…”

Inspired by my TRON setup from last winter: it’s The Barcelona Sessions III – Another window into our world. Just like the original Barcelona Sessions, or is it? If you are looking for more foot maneuvers and switch-ups, this game is not for you. There is more to blading than Five True Zoos…

It all began with 80mm race wheels to get around. Next came the birth of the new “Powerblading” lines from Kizer and Undercover. Add never-ending hills and perfect Barcelona concrete… before long we were cruising faster than cars on a regular basis.

“On the other side of the screen, it all looks so easy.” – Once comfortable with the speeds, naturally, we befriended the machines.

We got in.

And now you can, too. Enter the grid: A first person POV ride through Note’s last sessions in Barcelona.

…Proceed to games. Don’t try this at home.
