Gloomy weather in England, but the DC Shoes crew including flagship Wes Kremer shines anyway!
Featuring: Wes Kremer, Thaynan Costa, Antony Lopez, Jorge Simoes, Sam Pulley, James Bush, Dave Snaddon, Dylan Hughes, Nikki Howells, Sam Murgatroyd, John Bell.
When I saw Davis Torgerson at the SLS event in Munich, although he might not really be a contest guy, I once again fell in love with his super smooth skating. Now, a couple weeks later, DC dropped a new clip in which Davis is introducing the “New Jack S”, a classic and therefor nice looking skateshoe that comes along with the IMPACT-I sole technology to keep your feet safe from bruises. Davis looks more than confident with it out there in the streets. Definitely worth to give it a checkout!
I have always been a big fan of Josef Scott’s way of skating. Some people just have this style that looks so chilled like they do not give a damn about anything. It is that kind of style when someone even can land a trick sketchy and still the trick was “perfect”. Certainly, Josef Scott rolls away clean most of the time, but whenever the trick gets a little sketchy you will know exactly what I am talking about. However, this is a very solid part!
Japan is having a moment right now! Everybody seems to want to travel to the land of the rising sun for the spots, the culture and the overall vibe. The people over at DC recognized this momentum and sent some heavy hitters over. Making this a must watch, you can’t really argue against Wes Kremer’s or Evan Smith’s skating can you?

Evan Smith is known for doing the heaviest tricks always with a smile on his face. This is his newest part of a full length called “No Hotels”. A very fitting name for a guy like Even who is traveling the world and does not need anything but his skateboard and a guitar.
Gosha has been killing it hard for a second, he has had a crazy Thrasher part and now it is time for him to get a colorway from DC. This video celebrates that collaboration in the right way.

America is preparing for a new president and Wes Kremer is starting up his campaign to better the future.
Full part alert! Alex Carolino is back with his unique style and loads of pop – peep his new part for Cisco Skateboards, you won’t regret:
He was recently crowned “European Skater of the Year” and probably everybody who likes to skate – and also watch good video parts – has witnessed some of the outstanding skills of Madars Apse. He’s a guy representing a special face of Europe, not from the UK, France, Spain, or Germany, but from Latvia. Not the usual country to take a step out on the international stage of the skateboarding circus, what do you think? His merits include a pro board on Element, and more-than-decent sponsorships from DC, Red Bull, and GoPro. And also he has his own TV show, and that’s just because he’s a really interesting person to watch even if he’s not riding a skateboard. But skating is what he loves the most and as some of you may know, he’s been traveling across the globe to skate in different locations almost every week.
We’ve been wondering: Where have you been, Madars?
…one second ago?
I’m out in Barcelona right now at the Element flat, sitting outside on the terrace recapping last night’s events with Evan, Nassim, and Dominick.
…one minute ago?
Washed all the dirt off myself in the shower.
…one hour ago?
Had some Café con leche and a tortilla de patatas outside.
…one day ago?
Watched Evan Smith get three gnarly clips yesterday, including an NBD.
…one week ago?
I was in St Jean De Luz in France skating a demo with the DC guys, meeting kids, and having a good old parking lot session with free drinks.
…one month ago?
I was on a trip hitting Latvia-US-Argentina-Brazil-US-Latvia.
…one year ago?
I was chilling at home with a broken knee cap.
…five years ago?
I just began summer holidays in-between my second and third year at University. Had a fun summer with lots of trips.
…ten years ago?
Probably the best time of my life, four years into skateboarding, jumping off the biggest shit and started filming video parts, which would later help me to get on the Element team.
…15 years ago?
I had just tried every sport possible and decided to get myself a skateboard.
…20 years ago?
Began my first grade, I was six years old and enjoyed the country life.
…25 years ago?
I was one year old almost, just learning how to flex my muscles.

DC released Stevie Williams‘ first signature shoe in 2001, and fifteen years later the good people from the Village Psychic got together with one of the internet first phenoms Jamal Smith to create a very late review of this 2001 jaw dropping shoe. Funny!
Für DC Shoes war 2014 ziemlich erfolgreich, wie uns dieser Zusammenschnitt der Highlights des vergangen Jahres beweist. Nyjah dominierte die Street League und hat den Tampa Pro Contest gewonnen, Wes Kremer wurde verdientermaßen zum SOTY gewählt und Felipe Gustavo machte Run & Gun klar. Erfolge, die zeigen wie on point das Team ist – aber auch abseits der großen Contests und Bühnen war einiges los:
DC Shoes begrüßt zugleich zwei neue Gesichter im Team, und die stellen sich vor, als ob es keinen Morgen geben würde. Tristan Funkhouser und Bobby De Keyzer sind ab sofort und offiziell im Team. Da klatscht sogar “The Boss” höchstpersönlich. Guten Morgen!
DC Shoe’s Matt Miller bringt seinen Debut-Promodel-Schuh raus und hat dafür einen Full-Part gefilmt. Der Typ hat auf jeden Fall nicht nur mächtig Pop, sondern auch das richtige Feingefühl für Tech-Moves. Hut ab!
Sk8mafias Wes Kremer kommt mit einem neuen Full Part der Extraklasse. Technik trifft auf Kreativität und einen sehr ausgeprägten Riecher für interessante und ungewöhnliche Spots – Kremer’s got it all. Höre ich hier irgendwo SOTY? Hip Hop Hooooray!
Der PLACE Skateboard Jetset und die LOOKYLOOKY Schickeria tun sich zusammen, um Geld zu verbrennen – nur zu eurem Besten. Wir schmeissen nicht mit Fuffies, wir schieben euch die Hunnies vorne und hinten rein: Wir machen euch fertig. Gemeinsam Scheine anzünden, die neue Ausgabe 46 und die PLACE X LOOKYLOOKY Kollabo feiern: Bier statt Kir Royal. Lasst uns also nicht alleine stehen wie die Deppen, sondern kommt vorbei und lasst uns Freunde werden – tot oder reich!

Pünktlich zum Wochenstart und zum Release des seines neuen Pro Models auf DC Shoes kommt Chris Cole mit diesem Full Part um die Ecke. Eine gute Mischung von Tech Tricks und Gemosche – verpackt in knappen drei Minuten: Läuft bei ihm.
Madars Apses erste Folge aus der eigenen Show It’s A Mad World zeigt ihn und seine Homies in seinem Heimatland Lettland. Akupunktur, Saunagänge und ein bisschen Geschichte mit dem sympathischen Blondschopf. Macht Spaß und kann gerne so weiter gehen, wir bleiben dran!
Chris Ray durchstöberte seine Festplatten und fand dort ein paar Mikey Taylor Clips, welche er kurzerhand in diesem Clip zusammenfassen konnte.
Madars Apse bekommt, so wie es sich für einen Mann von Welt gehört, seine eigene kleine Show in welcher es allem Anschein nach um das Tourleben geht. Die erste Episode soll am 05.02. erscheinen. Wir sind auf jeden Fall gespannt!
Die Jungs von DC Shoes waren drei Wochen in Südostasien unterwegs, um am Ende einen sehr ansehnlichen Clip mitzubringen. Nyjah Huston, Chris Cole, Matt Miller, Wes Kremer, Cyril Jackson, Mikey Taylor, Mike Mo, Madars Apse, Tommy Fynn und Jake Hayes auf ziemlich glattem Boden und in Smok-reicher Umgebung.
