Gabriel Hyden Interview

April 26th, 2011

Wheelscene.co.uk just released an interview with Austria’s finest Gabriel Hyden.

Quoting from the Wheelscene.co.uk website:

Austria’s Gabriel Hyden refuses to settle for the status quo. The young skater from Innsbruck had a good job working as a graphic designer in Salzburg and enjoyed the financial security that came with it. However, he rapidly realised that working in an office was simply not for him and turned his back on a regular income to pursue his interests and lead a more fulfilling life.

“I saved some money and took some time off to fully concentrate on art, music and skating. I needed to. I felt so depressed when I had a job, although it was a nice one, but now I work for myself. I’m not getting any money from anybody for the things I’m doing right now but, look at the world, I just don´t feel like taking part in society right now. I’ve got a point to prove, and that is to be satisfied with myself and the things I do.”

New and improved USD VII 2011 Skates in Stores 7th of May

April 22nd, 2011

The VII was originally created as a pricepoint skate but after it was drastically improved both in comfort, hardwear and looks skaters on the team began to take an interest. Simply put, this skate can battle any skate on the market. Its liners are high quality and exceedingly comfortable, and the cuff and boot combination is a perfect balance between support and flexibility. The new soulplate is a variation of the enormously popular Carbon soulplate with a brand new groove.

The skate really can be considered one of the most comfortable and accomodating skates on the market with a full lightweight soulplate to compliment the boot as well as a lowered heel for better anti-shock. As if all these improvements weren’t enough, the brand new Kizer Type-M frame will be making its premier exclusively on this skate.

Ideal for beginners thanks to its tantalizing price but also great for experts thanks to its hi-spec features, this skate is bound to be one of the best-sellers of 2011.
