UNSTOPPABLE!
Dirt, grass, pavement, bmx tracks, single track trails, grass hills, your backyard and now apparently even houses can be ridden. Basically, as you know, with a mountainboard your terrain is limitless. Oh, and regarding the cover shot. That's ill Shaunzo doing a gutter tap. More on that project in future issues.
In case you've been riding under a rock lately and haven't heard we've launched even more NEW products! For sale NOW! From our cool new colored T3 tread (Yellow and Green flavors) to our new line of street killing carveboards, there's something new for everyone. If you've been shredding the pave a lot and have been burning through tread you might want to give our new Roadie slicks a spin. If you want even more stability of just want a super fat board check out our NEW 18", that's right, 18" Matrix trucks. Basically something for everyone. Mix and match. Tweek out your ride. Dial it in and make this the best summer of riding ever!

HUNGARY MOUNTAINBOARD FESTIVAL
"On 22-23rd May there was an event in Budapest called 4th Big Sport-selector day. The aim was to provide testing and informing possibility to children and adult people who are looking for sporting possibilities and also a chance for people to meet the representatives of the sports. More than 90 sports showed up and during the two days approx 16,500 people visited the event. I can say the Hungarian Mountainboard Club did its best – our beloved sport was very popular. Most of the time children tried the boards but sometimes our riders made small shows by trying jumps and tricks. Even famous people tried mountainboarding like Ronald McDonald. More pictures of the event (mountainboard, skimboard, girls and party) are HERE"
