Max Fredriksson’s last session at his childhood bike park

Skogås bike park is a big outdoor park in Sweden, that formed the rider, Max Fredriksson is today. Living directly next to the park, young Max learned his first tricks and worked hard on refining those tech skills he is known for today, while shredding the ramps of the bike park in the South of Stockholm. 

As the park is being torn down within the next few days, Max and Anton Thelander decided to pay their respect to the park they grew up in and have one last session. Watch Anton and Max ticking off some last-minute goals and stomping new tricks:

fizik presents new Downhill and Enduro Shoes

Feel the force of Gravita!

With their new Gravita series, the Gravita Tensor and Gravita Versor MTB shoes, fizik have set out to check all the boxes for competition-leading downhill and enduro MTB riders, resulting in shoes that are lightweight and nimble, yet protective and rugged, and able to enhance bike control through the pedals by offering a precise, performance fit.

After months of designing, refining and real-world testing fizik’s team of industry-leading experts, engineers and downhill athletes came up with not one, but two Gravity-riding models. Rasoulution is proud to be part of this project, having consulted on launch strategy, communications’ approach and athlete partnerships.

The new fizik Tensor MTB shoes will be available in a clipless and a flat version, each in the three color ways Black/Black, Grey/Aqua Marine and Red/Black.

Staying true to classic Italian shoe design to goal was to avoid the bulky fit of traditional downhill MTB shoes. Both Gravita models feature lightweight, resilient ripstop nylon uppers and water-resistant, pared-down internal padding together with an all-new Gravita outsole in both flat and clipless versions.

The new fizik Versor MTB shoes will be available in a clipless and a flat version, each in the three color ways Black/Black, Black/Purple and Grey/Mud

We’ve been working very hard behind the scenes to bring this new concept to life. I’m incredibly proud of the team behind the Gravita series and can honestly say that we’ve pulled out all the stops to produce a shoe series that’s designed from the ground up for real world riding in the gravity scene”. – Alex Locatelli, Product Manager at fizik

Thomas Genon’s newest video “Thomas and Co.”

In a winter without the possibility to travel much, Thomas Genon is lucky to have such an excellent selection of local spots just outside his house. Having to spend the winter riding these, does not seem to bad at all – “au contraire” as you would say down in the South of France. All caught in film and brought together by Tommy’s friend and videographer Abel Nury.

“What started out with Abel filming me for fun turned into a huge amount of clips over a long winter at home. I guess you could say it was the two of us doing what we love.” – Thomas Genon

Tomomi Nishikubo joins the Red Bull family

Japanese trials and mountain bike star Tomomi Nishikubo had a very special parcel delivered recently. Sharpening his trials skills at a local skate hall, the 28-year-old YouTuber received an urgent message to come home right away. Quickly navigating his bike through the crowded city, Tomomi arrived at home just in time to meet Japanese BMX wizard Rim Nakamura to be handed his welcome present to the circle of the chosen ones: Tomomi’s very own, brand-new Red Bull helmet!

The Japanese bike ninja, who is often compared to trials bike geniuses Danny MacAskill and Fabio Wibmer, rose to international fame with his YouTube videos Ninja Rider 1 + Ninja Rider 2 and especially Chase Her, which expertly showcases Tomomi’s insane skill set, his creativity and his humor. With his latest work Ride to Survive, the rider from Yokohama demonstrates once again why he deserves the honor of a Red Bull helmet.

“I am super happy and excited. Joining the Red Bull family is like a dream come true. It shows that our hard work paid off. I can’t wait to realize future projects with them. I especially want to thank my team for their dedication and the way they surprised me with the helmet.” – Tomomi Nishikubo

As “just” a formal announcement seemed a bit boring, Tomomi’s team decided to surprise him in the best possible way – faking an entire video shoot for Tomomi’s helmet partner POC, who was more than happy to play along. By including Tomomi’s trials idols Danny and Fabio, the surprise is taken to new heights. Completely unaware of the real reason behind his latest shoot, Tomomi had no idea why Rim was at his door. That is, until he unpacks his new Red Bull helmet with his iconic bike ninja logo for the first time and is welcomed to the family. Mission accomplished.
