We are back with another late night live-update: Chaz Sands, Daniel Prell, Beat Schillmeier and many more - we are bringing the big nuts on your home screen. And this is just warm up. Take a little nap and we are back with more and bigger jazz tomorrow!
The pre-session is in full swing. It's pretty cold in the building, but the edit we have here make us feel a bit warmer right now. We are happy to present you a first action view on Winterclash 2012. While you are watching this short flick back home on your cozy warm sofa, we are getting back in the cold to get something hot for you.
Elliot Stevens seems as enthusiastic about Winterclash as we at Be-Mag. There's only one thing that gets us just as hyped up as having Winterclash in sight and that's sightings of Elliot skating. If you feel the same, the coming weekend may too result in an awesome overload for you. Guess we all have to deal with things like this from time to time. Good thing Winterclash is only once a year. Actually... wait a minute...?
The Be-Mag media crew arrived in Eindhoven, Netherlands. We had a chance to chat with organizer Jojo Jacobi talking about the Winterclash 2012 venue. As you can see in the video below, this year's playground will be a bit different challenging the blader's creativity. We are excited to tomorrow's pre-session. Quoting Jojo Jacobi: 'First chance to test out the ramps, don't kill yourself!'
Nils took the Blading world by storm with his recent WRS 'Uploaded' edit making him win the 'Fan Favorite' in this competition. His performance before that was nothing short of amazing, too. Let's find out more about his take on Winterclash after the click...
We're not sure if Daniel Prell has ever missed a Winterclash. Probably not. But we do know that 2012 won't be the year he starts slacking. Competing, filming, editing, drinking? All at the same time...? Daniel sure has a gift for multitasking. Or at least he's in need for it...

Rollerblade rider Jeremy Suarez has been flying under the radar for quite a long time now. We're not sure why that is though. The tricks he pulls at park competitions all over Europe sure aren't the reason for this. Watch out for Jeremy at Winterclash 2012!
Warren is from France and skates for Rollerblade. Two good reasons to ask him how he feels about Winterclash. He also is extremely passionate about Blading. There you have reason three.

If you'd ask people who have seen Guillaume skate, terms like "steez", "swag" and "next level" would be used to describe Monsieur Le Gentil. Let's see how Guillaume describes his Winterclash experiences past and present.
