Words and photos by Nicolas Bouvy Last Thursday evening, Krulli Park organized one cool event. For the first date of their European tour the Crazy Roadwalls stopped in Tallinn with their super original designed curbs. From straight curbs to their rainbow shape, without forgetting their zigzag super sick one, everybody had a blast.A big party was on, riders were on fire and the Crazy Roadwalls’ guys put some real effort into making this evening as fun as possible. Krulli Park was really packed with kids and Estonian veterans. The guys definitely nailed it with a greatly successful event. Jeremy Daclin, a french legend and curb shredder who owns the Film trucks company, provided some real cool trucks and Bonjour wheels for...
Lauri Täht by Nicolas Bouvy Today let’s go back a little, just a little back in time… A time where we were smarter than our damn cell phone. T’was not the phone the smartest thing on earth. When our fingers weren’t glued to the weird, rectangular, little glass screen. When a skate-photo appeared from the surface of a film roll coated by a thin silver layer instead of instant frame on the latest device from the market.

A couple of years ago, we got the need with the family to leave our old soviet flat and seek for a house. For month, we struggle to find the One and at the end found a perfect little old house in the center of Tallinn. In the backyard, it has a garden with a little garage/barn in the backyard.
Portrait of Raakel in his backyard. words and photos, Nicolas Bouvy Way out south-west there was this fella... fella I wanna tell ya about. Fella by the name of Raakel. At least that was the handle his parents gave him, but he never had much use for it himself. Mr. Raakel, he called himself Raakel Bloody Raakel. Now, Bloody Raakel that's a name no one would self-apply where I come from. But then there was a lot about the dude that didn't make a whole lot of sense. And a lot about where he lived, likewise.
