Roskilde Festival is well underway and some of our top pro's are busting their asses representing rollerblading to the masses. Sven Boekhorst and Eito Yasutoko showed the audience what's up with vert skating. Check the edit for some serious airtime!

The last update ended with us arriving in Kaunas at an awesome summer house. This is where we celebrated a national holiday - John’s day! Great house with all kinds of people hanging out. Chillin’, drinking and just having fun all night long and going to sleep when sun was already up, because this was the shortest night of the year. That sure was a fun night!

German shredders Alexander Schneider and Jojo Jacobi are currently at the Roskilde Festival in Denmark. They've been nice enough to send us our first updates on this year's skating, or should I say partying with a sprinkling of blading. The concert lineup is incredible: Bruce Springsteen, Bjork, The Roots, The Cure and Jack White are the main acts with incredible supporting artists such as A$AP ROCKY, Pretty Lights, Royce da 5'9" plus many more. Keep your eyes out for more updates coming.....soon.

Once again under gray skies we left the English capital towards Dover in order to board the ferry which would take us back to the mainland. The ride was rather good; we played games and we talked about everything and nothing, laughing all the way. After crossing 5 countries and spending approximately 10 hours on the water and the road, we arrived in Germany. Cologne was the second stop of this tour, a destination that also included only one day of skating so we had to be productive.

The RollKings Tour is over and done with but here is a recap of some more of their highlights. Take a peek at some extra bonus clips and photos. If these are their left overs, we can't wait for the finished product.

After a relatively easy van and rider pickup including Adrian Wallace, Jake Ricketts. Somehow we got to Dumbarton and the Unit 23 skatepark on time,in one piece and in dry weather. After a quick stop to pick up Chaz Sands who will now be joining us on the tour we hit a very packed Unit 23 to break in the new down box addition to the famous flatbank. It turns out the new box is indeed amazing and revitalises a park obstacle that has withstood 8 years of insane tricks from the best riders in the world sliding down the rails and boxes.

Nils Jansons and some homies have started out on the Hedonskate Bladelicious tour around Latvia and Lithuania. They have been nice enough to give us tour updates exclusively for Be-mag. Here's the first leg updated by Nils himself.

It's about 6am in the morning, I am with Nicolas Auroux and Mathieu Heinemann in this train bringing us to the meeting spot of the 3rd edition of the famous Nomades Tour. We are the first to arrive, quickly followed by Warren Digne and Robert Guerrero. Finally Mathias Silhan and Stefan Horngacher are here after a hard night partying...It's a rainy first day on our way to Calais, taking a ferry-boat to Britain's south coast.
