VISS SAFE [TEASER]

We proudly present you the first teaser for RajonTV’s upcoming full-length video VISS SAFE. The project has been technically in the making for the last 3 years and will showcase safe skating from Riga skate heads and friends. We will disclose the full cast closer to the premiere which is coming really soon.

#RAJONTOP10 – APRIL 2019

I clearly remember three years ago skating in Gtiims in April and early May because it was always raining. This year April is so hot we are catching tan and fully skating outside filming street clips. It is definitely global warming; however,  at least we are going to die after enjoying good weather.

For this month top 10 we finally gathered only street clips from our Baltic friends. Okay, in two clips skaters use some skatepark obstacles, but they skate them in the streets, or end up in the street after skating them (it will be clearer after watching). read more

KKC Kicker

Brick kicker/bump over a meter of flat and a curb. Run up goes slightly downhill, so it is easy to get speed. The street is semi busy. Rare kickouts. Mostly people are upset when you skate it in the evening.

Address: Lačpleša iela 7
Directions:
Take the bike lane from the National Museum up Skolas street, turn right on Lačpleša street.

Mego Handrail

One of the most popular handrails in Riga. Mostly skated down. Can be skated as a flat bar. You can also jump over it or do a hippy jump. It is almost like a skatepark rail but on street. Has nine stairs. The run up is a bit sketchy and potentially narrow for some. They tried to knob it but it didn’t work. Kickouts are possible.

Addres: Usmas iela 2
Directions: Take 1st tram from the center and get of at Botaniskais Darzs stop. Follow the tram direction, it goes over the bridge. The spot is on the right side of the bridge. read more
