Odense skatehalle

Night Session

So it has been a while since I last blogged, so I thought that I would write a little bit about a session a few weeks back.

Since we are not allowed to ride 26" wheels in the skatepark on a regular bacis, Stefan Hjortkær opend it up for us, for a private session. As soon I heard that Stefan would open the skatepark, I jumped on my AMP, when I got off from work. I also called Stefan Hovaldt who is good friend and photograf to shoot some pictures.

I have been working on me 360´s lately, since I ride my AMP alot in the wintertime. So I tought that I would give it a go over the jumpbox, which worked out good. I had a few sketchy ones, but they got better as I got on with it.

One of my goals this winter it to get better at riding skateparks. In the past I have been riding alot of dirt jumps, but that is just too cold when winter comes and the snow falls. Therefore I am giving the wooden ramps a go.

The day before the session I got some new parts for my Banshee. I got a new Gusset Pigmy 853 and Gusset sprocket on it. It is my first steel crank and I am truely impressed by how stiff it is and it looks super cool in black chrome! Furthermore I got a new Halo DJD rearhub, to replace my Supradrive, which was really good, but I need a dirt jump specific hub, that could keep it in the frame were i wanted it, since it only had a 9mm axle. Therefore I got the DJD with a 10mm bolted axle :)

Overall it was a good session, which was stopped by a brused ankle from my side :)
