On the Horizon: We Are Orange Juice

January 7, 2013

One thing I always get really stoked on is when people are going out and making their ideas and dreams happen. I’ve been a fan of Roy Van Kempen for quite a while and the website him and Tom Lammerse started a while back called We Are Orange Juice. Since it’s launch, they have been making moves to keep things fresh. A few weeks ago announced that they would be starting a full on lifestyle brand to accompany their blog with clothing and accessories sharing the Orange Juice name. I was really impressed with what they were able to produce for their first collection, so I decided it would be a good time to catch up with Roy to find out more about the brand, how they got moving in this new direction, the process of making it and happen and where they are going with it. Let’s check out what he had to say!

Maddog BMX Jam Edit

January 7, 2013

There was a benefit jam thrown over in Germany (I’m guessing) recently to help raise money for Brett Banasiewicz. Dominik Wrobel was there to capture all of the riding that went down for this new Woozy BMX edit. It looks like there was a big turn out and plenty of real good riding went down. Don’t forget you can help raise money for Brett by buying one of the t-shirts in the link below.

“Maddog fundraiser jam: Mark Webb, Mike Wuerzinger, Paul Thoelen, Janek Wentzky and many more. Help out Brett “Maddog” Banasiewicz and buy a shirt: Athlete Recovery Fund.

Matt Gistinger – Tech As Shit

January 7, 2013

Dang this is rad. Matt Gistinger has a pretty unique street style that’s real technical. I feel like the only rider I could compare his riding to is Grant Castelluzzo. Check Matt out putting his pegs and nose balance to work. Definitely something to see.
