Old Boys Reunion at Skatehalle Aurich

Leave a Comment

When there’s a Rodeo Grind in the cover photo, you are required by BMX law to watch it.

Ohhh yeah. Here’s one that will get the Mid School riders psyched. Freedom BMX dug into the archive and pulled out this gem from 2012 featuring a few of Germany’s finest throwing down at Skatehall Aurich. The cover photo alone had us stoked to hit play on this one. We’re pretty sure we posted this one when it originally came out, but it’s definitely worth a repost. Everything from the riding to the music is so good and will definitely bring anyone who has been riding for 10+ years back. Even th Hit play and enjoy! We definitely miss seeing this kind of BMX video.

“Blast from the blast from 2012 with German BMX GOATS Tobias Wicke, Björn “Bommel” Mager, Sergej Geier, Markus Braumann and Jan Bekurtz shredding Germany’s biggest indoor park aka Skatehalle Aurich.

For today’s #damalsdonnerstag we travel back to the year 2012. Back then Felix Prangenberg, Paul Thölen and Dean Florian weren’t the most blatant drivers in Germany, but guys like Tobias Wicke, Björn “Bommel” Mager, Sergej Geier and Markus Braumann. Here is a video that the All-Stars filmed eight years ago in the Aurich skate hall, where there was no Advent jam for the first time in over 20 years. You don’t know what to shake your head about anymore. That one of the most beautiful traditions of the German BMX scene was interrupted or how far ahead of their time the guys were back then. Real goats, uh, goats are that. MÄÄÄH!

Here is the text of the video on our page from 2012:
“Tobias Wicke, Björn” Bommel “Mager, Sergej Geier, Markus Braumann and Jan Bekurtz locked themselves for a few days in the Playground Skatehalle Aurich. It goes without saying that Bommel had his camera equipment with him in addition to his bike, which was currently without brakes we will witness today that they not only competed in transitions there, but surprisingly also spent a lot of time on the many grind obstacles in Germany’s largest skate hall. But see for yourself … ”

Cancelled Crew – Tim Schoberth “Your Eyes”

Leave a Comment

Freedom BMX coming through with a fresh Tim Schoberth video for your viewing pleasure. Tim goes to work on street spot with no shortage of grinds with and without pegs, making for a real solid watch. Hit play and take a look!

“Groovy, dude! Canceled crew member Tim Schoberth grinding down his pedals all over Germany.

Tim Schoberth was just behind the camera at Artur Meister’s contribution to our Bangers video contest, when he changes sides again and slips into the role of the main actor again for a change. In “Your Eyes” the canceled crew member melts a number of pedals, but two pegs have also found their way back to his rider, which makes for a varied mix of tricks. The whole thing is garnished with the psychedelic visuals typical of Tim’s videos and a soundtrack that is not exactly chart-suitable. Sounds interesting, doesn’t it? So open your senses and then hit “Play”!

We’ve been seeing more jam videos starting to surface online lately, which is nice to see after a super of lockdowns.

Aichwald Trails Summer 2020

Leave a Comment

We’re always stoked when some fresh trails footage surfaces online. Freedom BMX uploaded this new one from the sessions that have been going down at the Aichwald Trails over in Germany. Despite COVID shutting things down for a while, it looks like they were still able to salvage the summer with some proper sessions with friends. Hit play to check out what went down! This place looks like a ton of fun to ride.

“TRAILS ARE FOR THE PEOPLE!

The year 2020 has not been the easiest for us on the Aichwaldtrails, as probably for pretty much everyone in the (BMX) world. We had to cancel our jam for the 15th anniversary, we weren’t allowed to drive until June, etc. Of course we didn’t just sit on the couch and wait until the “sports facilities” were allowed to reopen, but without further ado we have a new pump track and a new beginner line built, which has expanded our range of fun for all ages and skill levels.

Anyone who has ever had the pleasure of enjoying a successful trail session knows how difficult it is to put the cross bike aside for a moment in order to capture the rare spectacle. Even if the ski jumping hill season started later than usual for us this year, we managed to keep the camera on it every now and then over the summer.

Due to an injury, I had a lot of time in the last few weeks and therefore put the clips that have been filmed so far in this video. Warning: The video contains neither professional stunts nor was it professionally produced. You can only see good friends who have fun jumping over their self-made heaps of earth and sharing the whole thing with friends and guests from all over Europe!

If someone is interested and wants to stop by for a session (or more), they can contact us at any time. As you all know, riding trails is not like riding a skate / bike park. There is work to be done during every session, if we get help, that’s enough. Nobody has to shovel with us all winter long at 5 degrees and drizzling rain.

TRAILS ARE FOR THE PEOPLE!

Thanks to the guys from the kunstform BMX Shop for the almost never ending support. Thanks to all the locals who keep the spot going and improve it year after year: Andi, Michel, Tim, Momo, Beyer.

Pannonian Challenge 2020 – BMX Park Highlights

Leave a Comment

There haven’t been too many BMX contests that have gone down this summer thanks to COVID, but the Pannonian Challenge over in Croatia wasn’t about to let that stop them from throwing their 21st annual contest. Hit play to check out a bunch of highlights from the contest with plenty of big names in attendance to throw down!

“Despite these strange times the 21st edition of the Pannonian Challenge recently took place in the City of Osijek, Croatia. Luka Kovič managed to get some riding clips from some of the best riders in the world and Catfish. Hopefully next year we will see more BMX Freestyle Park events like this again! Stay safe and keep on riding!

After there was little or nothing going on in the “Jams & Contests” category in the past few months due to corona, this division of freedombmxTV is now slowly but surely starting up again with caution. For example, the other day we were at the LAME 2020 at the M-Trails in Magdeburg (video is coming soon) and soon we will go up to the far north, more precisely to Flensburg, for the replacement event for the Butcher Jam.

But also in the rest of Europe something is happening here and there. Not so long ago, for example, in Osijek (Croatia), a stripped-down version of the renowned Pannonian Challenge was held in camera. Despite Corona, the BMX park contest there surprised with an astonishingly international starter field, which included Daniel Dhers and delegations from England (Jack Clark, Kieran Reilly) and France (Anthony Jeanjean, Istvan Caillet).

In the video above there are some clips from the men that Luka Kovič from Evolution BMX kindly captured for us on site. Thanks a lot for this!

1. Jack Clark (GBR), 86.00
