Man, look at the size of that jump. It’s like a super-mega ramp with a gap. 900…900..1080? What is this, freeskiing? Not even close. The danger factor just got amped up one thousand times. As if you didn’t know already from what we’ve shown, if you missed out on Air FISE Marsielle, you made one of the biggest mistakes of your life. If you have been following, you already know. Either way, it means you are thirsty for bangers. So, back to that super-mega ramp. Think you have what it takes? This is a do or die situation. You don’t clear that landing and you’ll be sipping out of a tube for the next year. So, why don’t you just sit back and see what Aragon, Morales, Haffey, Godenaire, and some friends have been up to. Don’t worry, we won't tell anyone about the drool on your keyboard.
After a long period of building up anticipation Chris Haffey went for the big one last night at the FISE experience in Marseille.

Being who he is Chris Haffey not only pushes the sport in creative stuntman like tricks but now has decided to leave his mark by breaking records! Check out the video here. Enjoy the madness...
In a few hours (8pm) the big show will start. Chris Haffey had his final rehearsal this afternoon. Everyone is excited for tonight! Are you ready? Come back on be-mag to find out how Chris Haffey did on the world record.
Yesterday each rider had the chance to test the FISE big air ramp, except those that didn't dare to do it. Yeah, this jump is a serious business as you can see in the pictures below. The riders kicked off the session with a 'small' gap (10 metres). Chris Haffey was kind enough to share all his Mega Jump experience with the other attendees. The riders entered the ramp one by one. Their initial fears have been quickly forgotten: Straight after landing the jump they wanted to be back in the air. Jumping a ramp like this is not an easy task: You have to be fully focussed, even the smallest mistakes aren't allowed here. After a while the riders started to feel more comfortable to this new setting and therefore their jumps got bigger and more risky. This test session made us all pretty excited for the Friday show. To be honest - the world record attempt looks really scary. Only god knows if it's possible. Stay tuned for more action tomorrow.
More and more rollerbladers are entering the Air FISE venue in Marseille to check out the location. But the FISE staff is still working hard to prepare this massive course. We just have to be a bit more patient until the who's who in Rollerblading can roll on these massive ramps. Stay tuned for more updates.
The Fise Team arrived early in the morning to prepare the event venue. But what's the deal about the Air Fise event? Compared to the other Fise events the AIR FISE is not a competition, it's a show. Rollerblading plays an important part in the show. Additionally, we have an own area for wakeboarders which is a big pool set up in the Marseille Ice Ring and equipped with huge FISE ramps. On the other side of the ring there will be a new and exiting ramp set up for the rollerbladers. Brian Aragon, Franky Morales and Chris Haffey already arrived in Marseille to check out the location. French Riders Kevin Quintin, Romain Godenaire and Mathias Silhan are also on site and will enter the course today. As you might have seen on the Air Fise teaser the Air Fise will be the platform for another highlight: Chris Haffey will to try to break the world record for the longest jump. Stay tuned for further updates.
The Air FISE in Marseille is about o go down and Be-Mag will provide live-updates straight outta France. Chris Haffey already arrived in Marseille to monitor the building process for the ramps used for his world record attempt. We're expecting this to get exciting so stay tuned to Be-Mag!
After the price giving at the Fise we left straight to Italy for the RB 2012 Collection presentation. In total it was a 950 km drive which took us 8 hours. I started driving the first 2 hours but soon I felt my eyes getting heavy. So Rob took over and drove almost straight to Italy, thanks to the Red Bull he took 2 hours before arriving.
We started our journey from the Barcelona airport to pick up Svenergy. Once he got situated and we tetris-ed our luggage in the Rollerblade vehicle, we started on our way to Montpellier. I must admit, My nose was buried in my sketchbook almost the whole trip. When we arrived, we settled into our badass bungalow right on the ocean front. After we brought our luggage inside, we headed over to the bar Fise had sponsored. I was pleased to see that the name of this particular bar was the “Manhattan”, dressed appropriately with red, white, and blue stars and stripes almost in every direction. I was almost helpless to feel anything but a little cocky seeing on how I'm a southern blood American.
We are proud to release Be-Mag print issue 37. Once again we have taken a trip throughout the world to capture the best of skating worldwide. We started off in Australia with a CJ Wellsmore interview showcasing the Australian powerhouse. CJ Wellsmore took the WRS crown for 2010 and you can be sure that he will make waves again this year. For Europe, we only chose to portray one of the skaters that has been around for a few years, Sven Boekhorst, who constantly shows a true dedication for skating. In the USA we caught up with Kevin Yee, who shared his inspirational thoughts with us. In Europe we packed a van and toured through Italy with some of Europe's finest. Then we decided to show you how skating has been developing in Poland, where vast areas of old industrial production facilities are empty and open for the rolling heart. And last but not least we covered the WRS Finals, the SDSF competition and the FISE.
In this episode we were on the move from Russia back into France, our second home! The rain this year really sucked but we made the most of it. The French bladers are the dopest! -Josh Glowicki
