Vacanze Romane 2.0 | The Combo Skateshop Files

Combo Shop - Nikolai & Edo

The roman seaside just charmed me somehow, it might be the good air and the abundance of pork sandwiches; there is a something out there that just gets me all relaxed. So I teamed up with Edo Paris and went back for more, visiting our rider Nikolai Danov, now fully recovered from his ankle injury and in full operative mode with the newborn “Combo Skateshop”.
Witnessing him finally on the job almost made me cry; tell his mom about it!! Read the rest of this entry »

Nikolai Danov

Alaikit, the last video produced from the Alai team just came out. The video is great, with skaters like Marcos Chami and Alain Goikoetxea, truly super monster all terrain. In the flow riders part there are a few tricks of our Nikolai Danov who spent the last summer in Spain and has left the sign.

You can download or watch the video on the Alai website. Good job Alai and Bravo Niko.

Night Session @LambroSkatepark – Milano

Daniele Galli

Yesterday night at the LambroSkatepark here in Milano there was a photosession with Daniele Galli, Nikolai Danov e Cristian “amen” Amendolara. It’s soo fun to skate at dark… unfortunately the Milan City Council still insist on negating lights to the skaters while claiming the city a modern one and hooray for the Expo. So we had to use our own.

After the prize as the best videopart of 2007 with Hello, People! video, Nikolai is gettin bigger and bigger. Alai skateboards, his spanish board sponsor, decided to push him using the Hello, People! videopart in the Weeklip (is the weekly video dedicated to their own team riders) and to take him to Spain for the next amateur tour.

So Niko, let’s rock!

SkateMap Awards 2007

by jep 12 May 2009

E’ di ieri la notizia che agli ultimi SkateMap Awards il team bastard si è aggiudicato:

Per un soffio bastard non si è vinta anche il Team Of The Year che è invece andato a Dumb Skateboards e ci fa ugualmente piacere perchè ancora una volta mostra a tutti (noi compresi) come nello skateboarding alla fine le cose importanti siano la tavola, la strada e la voglia di divertirsi insieme… e in effetti è proprio per quello che abbiamo iniziato.
