The X-Mas Jam in Hamburg, Germany is an institution. It has existed for a long time and each year it draws a large international crowd of skaters to compete. Besides being internationally renowned it has become the official German Championships competition, making it the most important contest for this nation.
After a successful year with events in Bremen, Leipzig, Bonn, and Wuppertal, the finals of Grindhouse Miniramp Masters 2011 took place on the 17th of December in Cologne, Germany. In the second year of its creation, the series was host to over 100 competitors. Skaters from all over the country attended and made the final event one to remember.
On the 6th and 7th of August in the city of Hamburg it was time for the annual Summer Jam at the I-Punkt Skateland. As in most of Europe the weather this summer has not been the best but it held out for us to hold this contest. Over the weekend the park saw talent from Skateboarders, BMXers and Rollerbladers! Sunday was the day set aside for the Rollerblading contests. The day kicked off in traditional fashion with the Limbo contest, something fun for the kids and a good warm up for those looking to compete in the following grind box, bowl and best trick contests.
The last years first Rollacoasta Session in Schleswig was still a rather spontaneous get together of rollerbladers from Flensburg, Hamburg and parts of Denmark. At that time nobody thought about advancing this session to a regular gathering of the northern rollerblading scene. But since there hasn't been much going on in terms of events apart from the X-Mas Jam it presents itself as a great opportunity to change that and give the sleepy scene some valuable momentum.
First held in 1996, the X-Mas Jam has been going strong for many years now. Known for righteous skating and good atmosphere, this event is here to stay for another 15 years. Easily. Check out a bunch of photographs from the competition as well as quotes of people that attended the '10-edition of the Jam to find out more about the vibe of an event that has skaters coming from the Netherlands, Denmark, Poland as well as France every year to celebrate Rollerblading at the I-Punkt Skateland in Hamburg.
The German Miniramp Masters series recently had another stop in Wuppertal. The unknown Fedor Simonov took the crown. Congrats. PS: Make sure to pay special attention to the youngest kid in this edit 'Nils Rinas' starting his show at 0:52. Looks like another great talent.
