'U3 Baumwall', which may sound weird in English, is actually a train station here in Hamburg, Germany. This is the station we usually got off for the filming of this video since it's right next to the "Hafen City", a new district of the city that is currently being built on ancient harbour ground. No building is older than five years and neither are the spots.
Photographer Stephanie Barthelmess set up a little photo booth at the X-Mas Jam in Hamburg, Germany last year. These photos are further effort of ours to make it easier for you to decide wether or not you should be attending this year's event which is going to take place this weekend. As if it even needed consideration... there is absolutely no reason not to go. Enjoy the photos!
One of Europe's longest running contests, the infamous X-Mas Jam, is taking place in Hamburg Germany next weekend. We talked to organizer Jonn Rübcke to see what we can expect from this years event and also how he plans to take the whole thing even further this year. Two days, competitors from all over Europe and 3000 € in prize money. This is going to be big!
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.
Meeting Mark Stamer in Hamburg for a session this year, you could feel certain that this guy would amaze you once more. Not only with his flawless skating but with his friendly and humble personality as well. Some things just won't change. It's been long overdue that one can get a HD-view of his skating again here on Be-Mag. Not like Mark has been out of the game or something... He probably was just too busy doing some decent scientific research or getting his Nosepress game on. So check out the One Minute One Spot that he dropped at the Wilhelmsburg Banks this summer.
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.
Sometimes you don't really know what you're getting yourself into. Work might just stay a piece of cake or become a hard challenge. When you're an ambitious person like Karsten Boysen, it usually turns out to be the latter. Since Karsten got his hands on cameras, he has fought one hell of a lot of those self imposed challenges. This year he portrayed the rolling scene of his hometown Hamburg and that is something the scene there has been missing for quite some time.
Roman Abrate took the first place at the Hamburg Xmas Jam past weekend. Roman is known for his textbook 900s. This weekend he took them to a complete new level: Lacing a 900 transfer from the street area into the halfpipe made the contest's highlight and the crowd go wild alike.
Are you ready for the traditional Xmas Jam Hamburg? It seems like Europe is gathering for this year's last big competition. The organizer (Maik Lojewski) not only expect the German rolling crowd to represent in Hamburg - but also a lot of people from different other countries in Europe and some special guests. The local scene in Hamburg is pretty stoked about the upcoming event. Christoph Böttcher just put together a short Max Visser pre-session edit to increase the tension for this year's Xmas Jam. And as you might have expected: Be-Mag will be in Hamburg to report live from the event. So make sure to check back here.

Check out this X-Mas Jam edit by Dirk Oelmann. Real good work. There is also a neat little report over at Risemagazine.de. There is plenty of German language involved, but also a good amount of pictures that are kind of „international“, you know? Peep both of it!
