Another part of my last package from Blackriver: the Berlinwood X Blackriver – Limited Edition Skull Splitply deck. It´s not the latest graphic but one of the greatest! I´ve never seen such a splitply deck ever before. Check out that skull:

Aaaaaand another one:

“In cooperation with Blackriver, Berlinwood presents the first professional produced Berlinwood Splitply Decks, handmade by Timo Lieben! Avid fingerboarders certainly stumbled over one or another splitply, but these decks are very rare, because of its elaborate production process. Berlinwood now starts with an absolutely limited series of BR Skull splitplys.”

Black and white wood combined to make something great. And you might think the skull is printed on the deck, but no! This is a splitply deck! While doing fingerboardTV I´ve received a lot of different decks. And even some really awesome and handmade splitply decks, but this is just insane. You won´t get a cleaner split somewhere. I can´t imagine how Timo could create something like this. Get one. REALLY try to get one!!! Blackriver-Ramps webshop: Click!

Btw are you interested in a huge part of the fingerboard history? Mastermind Timo Lieben was the first to manufacture professional wooden fingerboards the way skateboards are made. The Berlinwood website is online with a shit load of pictures and many facts behind Berlinwood. Make sure to check that out! CLICK CLICK CLICK!

THX a lot for the support Timo!

Product Blog: Blackriver-Ramps – John Cowart Signature Ramp0

November 14, 2015 by MartinB. | 7:58 am

Another Blackriver-Ramps US teamrider got his own ramp now. John is a well known fingerboarder for several years now. I never met him in person but I´m watching his vid-eos for ages so consider me as a fan.John is the head behind Cowply fingerboards. He’s been making decks and ramps for years and really knows what he’s doing. Each deck features a graphic made by him. Hand made in the USA! This is fingerboard dedication.

So, enough about John this is the John Cowart Signature Ramp:

Shape:

Footage:

And one more:

This spine curb combo gives you a lot. And, to be honest, it´s my personal favorite of the new ramps. You could combine it perfect with other ramps and if you use it on the playground it gives you some extra speed while wild shredding. I´m a fan of transitions. Get your wide board on and start BS smithgrinds.

If you watch John´s welcome to Blackriver edit:

you could maybe imagine, why John designed such an obstacle. He rides all terrains with his unique style and this ramp combines what he likes. Check out John´s YouTube channel right over here: Click! Ride this ramp as a curb, as a spine, as a wheelietable or just combine all elements. I really like to do spine to hop over manual tricks. You could buy this ramp for only 39,95 € right over here: Click!

And to make your order perfect, just buy one of the new John Cowart Berlinwoods:

This new graphic is available now. Get it right over here: Click!

THX a lot for all the new stuff Earn. You guys did a great job!

Semi Product Blog: Joycult – 60D Slime Green0

September 20, 2015 by MartinB. | 9:16 am

Some days ago I received a little package from Matt. This package contains the latest Joycult 60D wheels in slime green…

I´m in the Netherlands at the moment and took the wheels with me to take some cool pictures somewhere at the beach. Like I did several times before with other products. Yesterday morning I put them into my fingerboard wallet, together with my oldschool Berlinwood and some tools. Packed my bag, fingerboard in my jeans and started my journey to the beach. Searched for spots, filmed some tricks in the wind, just enjoyed aan zee. Later on I found a great spot for the product pictures. Just grabbed my bag for the fingerboard wallet and it´s gone. I never ost anything out of my bag up to now and now I´m really sad the wheels are gone. Matt was gentle enough to send me these wheels right before the official release and I was stupid enough to lose them, without taking pictures before.

I really have guilty conscience that I can´t give Matt the promotion he deserves for this awesome product! Sooooo stupid! Like I told you in my message beofre I´m really sorry Matt about this!!

Well, so I thought about to make a little product blog about these wheels without my own pictures. So check out the brand new Joycult wheels:

Shape:

More:

And one more:

“Joycult Original Shape and Premium 60D “INSANE-A-THANE” , in Slime Green. These wheels are great for all terrains but are most shred-worthy on the roughest of surfaces. This durometer will handle anything you throw beneath it. From grit to granite, these wheels are made for shredding

Joycult wheels are handmade in Brantford, Ontario Canada by Matt Watkinson using only premium materials. From face, to bearing, Joycult wheels are designed for fingerboarders, by fingerboarders.”

What could I tell you about the wheels? The wheels look perfect. You really feel the softness and they fit on Blackriver-Trucks without glue or anything else. Just prepared them for the pictures. The slime green color is solid and you get a little cat sticker with every set of wheels. The shipping from Canada to Germany only took 5 days. In my opinion this was really quick and they arrived well packed at my mailbox.

Matt is a super nice dude and you guys need to check out Joycult over here:

This is the fresh vibe our scene really needs! Support him, support fingerboarding in Canada and support fingerboarding worldwide!

Again Matt, I´m really sorry about this! I really feel embarrassed about myself.

Product Blog: Northwoods – Rodovsky X Berlin0

April 28, 2014 by MartinB. | 6:13 pm

Another nother nother nother nother cool thing I got since the Battle At The Harrics 2014 weekend. A new Northwoods deck:

Shape:

More:

And another one:

“The new GFX decks by Northwoods® are about as legit as you can get and printed just like full-sized skateboards. Extensive efforts went in to bringing you the sharpest and most vivid graphics application method possible. To top it off the graphics are virtually “never wear” because they are embedded inside a micro thin, rock-hard top layer that will stay smooth their entire life.

****These graphics do NOT grip or grab and are NOT photo paper or stickers.”

Thats true! The graphic on my last Northwoods deck was the same and it´s awesome. You maybe remember this board? Click! In comparison with my last Berlinwood board the graphic of the Northwoods deck lasts longer.

“The new JOYSTIC PRO is the latest and greatest to come out of our R&D. After working with the same mold for 3 years we made some improvements based upon experience, customer and team feedback. With the exclusive SWEETridge concave and POWERline core this board has the soul of a Northwoods with a smoother feel than the original. A mellowed concave and kick gives more control to the seasoned rider giving the overall apex a lower profile. Of course there is no sacrifice in our legendary pop so if you need to go big it’s no problem. It is a directional board that tapers towards the tail. We highly recommend this board to those seeking the best of the best.

Most models are available in both 101mm and 99mm!”

Trust me, you get used to the decks super quick. The shape is well done, round and up to date. Jared did a great job.

A special clue on this deck, it´s a Battle At The Harrics 2014 special issue:

There is a BATH logo on the top ply and the graphic itself changed a bit. The bear on the deck got a riffle, sunglasses and a hat and is based in Berlin. You won´t get these items on the normal Rodovsky promodel :-)

By the fucking way, you guys know Jared? Let me introduce Jared to you:

This is Jared. Jared is the head behind Northwoods. I never met such a thankful person in my life. He´s so cool! You should seriously support him and his brand. He´s doing a great job! Thank you Jared!

Northwoods got a pretty nice website/shop over here: Click! :-)
