Orange Juice X Vans – Malaga 2014

April 3, 2014

The Orange Juice crew teamed up with Vans once again for a trip. This time around the crew headed to Malaga where they found nothing but amazing spots, sunshine and some dialed riding. Take a peek!

“After the success of last years trip to Barcelona both Orange Juice and Vans Benelux decided it was time for another one. This time they invited Thijs Vervaeck, Kenzo de Witte, Mark Vos, Jorn Tuijnman and Roy van Kempen on a 9-day trip to Malaga, Spain. They met up with Malaga locals Ruben Alcantara, Fernando and Antonio Laczko who showed them all the crazy spots that Malaga has to offer. Syo van Vliet came with them and shot some great photographs.

Threads Vol. 4

March 28, 2014

It’s that time of the week again where we head over to Bikeguide and take a look at what the guys are getting into over there! This week we’ve picked out two fresh threads that are getting pretty interesting and are worth checking out!

The CULT X VANS TYRE thread has everyone talking about their thoughts on the soon to be released tire that Cult is working on with Vans and their legendary waffle pattern. Definitely interesting to see what everyones thoughts are!

`Thread: CULT X VANS TYRE`

Next up we have a thread that I never expected to stumble upon… Storm Trooper BMX. The photo is pretty self-explanatory, but believe it or not there are a bunch more photos surfacing like this that are pretty hilarious. If you’re into Star Wars or just looking for a laugh. Take a look at this thread because it can only get weirder from here on.

That wraps up this weeks round of Threads! Head over to Bikeguide.org and check out all of the threads on the board! I can guarantee you will find something that catches your eye!

Vans Europe – Anthony Perrin Welcome Edit

March 26, 2014

Anthony Perrin has been doing it for Vans for a while now… But he was recently given the bump up to the Vans Europe Pro team for obvious reasons! Watch this welcome edit filled with gold!

“It’s been unofficial since January 2014, but we’re pleased to finally announce a new addition to the Vans Family, as we welcome French rider Anthony Perrin to the EMEA BMX Team.

Anthony was first signed to Vans on a local level, joining the French team in 2012, although with his potential, it was only a matter of time before he stepped up and joined the ranks of the EMEA riders.

EMEA BMX TM Andy Zeiss says:”We are super happy to have Anto in the European Team now. When we started flowing him in 2012, you could already see that the guy has what it takes to make it.”

Anthony joins 11 other riders, including names like Bruno Hoffmann, Dan Lacey and Harry Main. All are welcoming him with open arms, completing the dozen.
