Riga City Ep.9

What can turn a random spot into a meaningful one? More than the spot’s obstacles, it must be the history of the spot. The fresh patch of land with a curb in Skanste which seems not to have much to tell, in reality is meaningful. It is the closest you can get to the remains of Barax DIY. And Riga heads loved that place.

Check the vid from the spot filmed and edited by the master Rob “Mobila Films” Krums.

Quick Update: Boss of LNB Episodes are coming soon. We have filmed three new episodes, so the project is not over. Just didn’t have enough time to edit. Stay tuned!

Vlad Pirat “Truna” part

We have been following Vlad Pirat on instagram for some time now, and he comes across as a highly dedicated skateboarder. He’s on Zero “New Blood” level of gnar but with a modern twist on the trick selection. We doubt Tony Cervantes would push on the ledge mid slide, or even if that would be considered legal back than. Luckily for Vlad, it is now. Check Vlad’s latest part

“Tenor” by Skateboard Cafe

Some of our local heads might remember Skateboard CAFE from seeing their hardgoods in Riga. They are a board brand from Bristol, UK and have been putting out videos once a year for about four years now. CAFE’s videos have a what we’d call a minimalistic approach. There’s little to no broll, rarely any intros. There’s not a lot of extra visuals, however CAFE videos have a certain distinct vibe that’s constant throughout all four vids. We love watching these, and always look forward to what’s the next move Harry Ogilvie is going to pull at College Green. Bummer that this video didn’t have that. Anyway, a great new vid, check it out. Peace.

#rajonreport: Downrail Jam

Fricis’ had an idea to invite bladers, bmxers and skaters to session a huge handrail on a Thursday evening. An unorthodox idea to say the least. When dealing with Fricis, you need to switch off your biases and go with the man’s flow. Soon you will see that his ideas are brilliant. The whole thing turned into a sick show. Stuff like that is possible only in Riga.

Some pics: 

See you in the streets.

Spider Sense

We filmed this after Madars’ and Deda’s game. It was getting dark, so we apologize for some shitty quality towards the end of the game. Despite all that, a great game with some unpredictable new spot choices.

First day of Autumn

 

It’s hard to stack clips these days for younger generations. Most clips are filmed on phones and are just one click away from getting posted. Our mate Ralfs from Cesis, although not without defeat, fought the posting temptation this whole summer. And what a better excuse to reveal your summer stacks, than the first day of autumn.

It is obvious that Madars has a big advantage in this game. He’s a pro ffs! However, Dimon Deda’s bag of tricks is notorious for unique, semi-legal gems like: fakie fs 360 shove-its and fakie fs bigspins, so there’s always a chance to get some letters.

Kicker Boss

We have a rule to use the Vans kicker one time per game. Fricis, being the ambassador of kickers and other skate aid tools, used the kicker almost in every go. He was jumping on a bunch of things that didn’t even require a kicker. On the contarary Rudik used his ledge abilities. Enjoy the game!

Stay tuned next week:

Madars Apse vs Dimon Deda 

Niklavs Vetra vs Kristofers Ozols

Sting like a bee

It is not the first time Aleksis “ALIksis” Sokolovs and Artis Strazdiņš meet one on one in our events by the way. In 2020 during the game of skate championship Aleksis defeated Artis with the score 1:7. But back then Artis was just a humble kid in a Puma hat. He has since grown. His legs became stronger and mind more focused. Artis has become that puma from the hat. Aleksis also was not wasting time. His booze tolerance and knowledge of bars developed significantly. And so did his pop.
