We have been super busy here recently and have a ton of work coming up to show y’all.  First up today though here are two of the most recent videos we have produced for Funkarama @ Thompsons club in Belfast.  The first is beatboxer Hobbit doing his thang, followed up by last months Ultimate Uprock dance battle.  We’re more than happy with how both these turned out and stay tuned for a second video from Hobbit with Starboy Nathan laying down some freestyles and another dance video from next week.

Recently we have also been finishing off Tha Duke’s first music video and will have it featured in the next week or so…


QFT & Belfast Film Festival – ‘On Your Bike!’ event photos

Just a quick selection of photos from the ‘On Your Bike!’ event the QFT and Belfast Film Festival ran down at Lanyon Place beside Belfast’s Waterfront Hall back on Sunday 4th September. As with anything outdoors this time if year you are running a gauntlet with the weather and on this occasion mother nature was the winner.  That said it was still a great day and plenty of people turned out to show their support for all things two-wheeled.  There was just enough of a window to squeeze one fashion show and one RampRage demo in before it got too bad, but the bands struggled through and the screenings where welcome shelter for mildly soaked patrons.   This is the sort of event we would love to see more of in Belfast, especially with our interests in both moving image and bikes!  Big thanks to Sarah Hughes and all the guys at the QFT and the guys from Belfast Film Festival for all the hard work.

Pushing Ireland’s world of urban sports forward with T13

Posted: September 9th, 2011 | Author: | Filed under: Events, T13, Urban Sports | Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , | No Comments »

Since we started the T13 project nearly a year ago now we have been constantly striving to help promote and develop urban sports throughout both our local communities and across the whole of Ireland.  We have already established a world class facility with the Rhythm Room and now we are about to do one better with the launch of Ireland’s first foam pit.

The official launch party will be Saturday 17th September in association with Monster Energy and of course at T13 // Titanic Quarter // Belfast – Northern Ireland’s home of counter culture.

We hope you can join us and help celebrate this addition to our arsenal as we continue to endeavor to highlight BMX, skate and blade talent in this country and help the next generation to be world beaters.

“This is your exclusive invitation to join us as we make history and unleash Ireland’s
very first Foam Pit.  Our good friends at Monster Energy Drink will be helping us
celebrate with some big beats and a BBQ.

There will be cool prizes for all sorts of Foam Pit related malarky.

Ireland is about to step it up!”


Culture Night Belfast – one big night of everything!

Posted: September 1st, 2011 | Author: | Filed under: Events, Urban Sports | Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , | No Comments »

Culture Night Belfast is a yearly celebration of all aspects of the cultures that co-exist in and around our city. This year we are very proud to have been asked to be the main focus of the Urban Culture hub, situated at Buoy Park, between St. Anne’s cathedral and the art college. As this area was a vital part in breathing life into early street culture in Belfast it is fitting that we will be showcasing what Belfast has to offer on this spot.

On the night we will have the RampRage BMX & skate teams out with a quarter pipe set-up, as well as b-boying and street dance. Also going on in and around us will be live street art with KVLR, Friz and some other local painters, and finally the Belfast Parkour crew will be knocking about showing you just what can be done with your urban environment.

We are not everything that is going on in the Cathedral Quarter that night so be sure to get down early and also explore the rest of what Belfast has to offer. Join up with Culture Night on Facebook to keep in the know.  The event starts and 4pm and will go on until 10pm that night, then it’s after-party time…
Peace, D.

We had Cypher Sessions part 2 in T13 last night, it was immense, thats all I can say right now.  We will have a full article in SESSION13 magazine at the start of September and I am sure there will be quite a few other mentions about the place.  Congrats to the Floor-B crew for organising, to bboy Zorro for taking the win and getting his entry into Notorious IBE in Holland and to bboy Armstrong for taking the cypher kings spot to also get a trip to IBE.
