We arrived early at the Villanova la Geltru so we decided to eat an early lunch made up purely of meat, grease, fried foods, eggs and grease and went on to the park to represent. It was good to see some familiar faces of the Barcelona scene alongside a ridiculous amount of scooter riders. I had heard scootering was on the rise, but this was absolutely ridiculous. There was over 40 scooter riders per square meter.

Razors Stefan “Horn” Horngacher Pro Model release
May 13th, 2011Here is the official release:
Razors is proud to release the first pro skate of one of our most popular riders on the team: Stefan “Horn” Horngacher. Featuring upgraded plastic shell and souls, as well as new Rzr liners. His first pro skate is the world premiere for Ground Control’s Formula 1 XS frame. Highlight of the frame is a wider split which provides significantly more grinding area even with a 4 wheels flat set up. Also, the axle bolts are deeper recessed and the H-block area is thicker giving the frame even more strength and durability. The maximum wheel size is 60 mm (outside) or 56 mm if riding 4 wheels flat.
The baseless boot design provides a super close contact to the ground and is much more responsive than traditional skates. The replaceable backslide plate is perfectly grooved and aligned with the groove of the frame.
The Horn skate comes with a new Razors liner with oversized padding and articulated ankle shape which locks your heel in like a vice. It also features Horn’s signature wheels and ABEC 7 bearings. Outfitted with the classic Rzrs cuff per Horn’s request.
