We support the Boardfusion Tour that brings together board sport enthusiast of different disciplines. Mid July Board Fusion 2 took place at the wakeboard cable in Thulba, Germany. Great weather, happy participants and lots of fun! That was definitely due to the new format. No contest but a video and photo session. Best riders were filmed and shot. Finally the 15 best riders rode a 2 hour sunset session to crown “The Most Impressive Rider”. 15 year old Nico Kauzner was the lucky one, showing sweet tricks and creative jibs at kicker and boxes with tons of style.
Next Board Fusion with skateboard contest takes place July 30th in Schweinfurt.

Angie had a good time with great success last weekend in Saalback at the Freeride Festival.
She started at the Dual Eliminator on friday. A fast old school track with few berms and loose ground. She managed it easily to the finals and won in front of the german champion Steffi Marth.
Next day saw the qualifications for the Scott Gang Battle. The 1. ever Mass Downhill Race in Austria. More than 450 riders registered for that race. The track started on a grassy ground down the gravel road and turned into the 8km DH Track (Xline), a mix of fast, rough and narrow, with roots, northshores, pedaling and gravels.
Angie had a great qualification run. She started with 30 other guys in the group and after a really fun 14 minutes ride she managed finishing 3rd place in the women´s category.
The next racing day Angie started on 1st position but tactically decided to slow down a bit to safe power for the rest of the track. The battle of the first 4 women was pretty close. Angie managed coming back from the 4th position into the 2nd and stayed there till the end. She finished the race 2 seconds behind the winner girl!
Watch the teaser that TSG’s ski rider Bene Mayr just send over to us.
Innsbruck based crew “Legs Of Steel” will release their first movie “The Pilot” this autumn. The group of four, three Germans and one Englishman, joined forces last season to leave their mark on the European freeski scene.
