Dimitri Tardif wins King of Concrete

Posted on by — 5 Comments ↓

Getting back to some kind of normality after a busy weekend organising the King of Concrete at Southsea Skatepark, along with the UK Vert Series team.
Congratulations to Dimitri Tardif who made the trip from Normandie, France and won the Pro Class with some awesome rocket hang five variations. Jean Michel Chauvel, also like Dimitri came from Normandie also and took first place in a stacked expert class with an amazing run full of originality, and second in the pro class.
In the Under 13’s, Arthur took the win in his first competition with a great run. The weekend was a big success and definitely had the feel of the classic KOC’s, great to see a good turnout particularly in the Am and Under 13’s classes. Full results below, photo galleries to follow in the next few days, I am absolutely shattered. Big thanks to Four Pegs for sponsoring the event!

Pro Flatland.

Health Matters – Part 1: Flatland and Low Back Pain by Scott Hagnas

Posted on by — 13 Comments ↓

Intro: Effraim.

Today I am stoked to launch a new section “Health Matters” to the site, and the first and most common flatland related injury is lower back pain that we get crouched over our small bikes. Well what do you do about it? How do you recover? Do you rest? Do you work out? How can the Fresno truck accident lawyers help you to get recover soon? What specifics, can you do get back on the bike quicker and prevent injury again? The Portland auto accident injury attorneys suggest not to strain so much after recovering freshly from the injury as it would increase the risk of multiplying the pain and consider that it is better to turn the stone one at a time. Without further a due, I’ll pass you over to Scott Hagnas!
