RVCA presents ADVANCE, a contemporary art show by the #ANP collective (Artist Network program), from September 7 to 28 at Darwin Ecosystem in Bordeaux, France.
Featuring the works of Ed Templeton, Ben Horton, Benjamin Jeanjean, Jerome Romain, Kevin « Spanky » Long and Andrea Do Souto, we are proud to welcome fans and art lovers at one of France’s most renowned creative venues where artists have been setting new heights of creativity since 2005 and the closing of the historic military headquarters of Caserne Niel.
With a mix of photography and paintings setup in an industrial-like raw location inside the inspiring Darwin Ecosystem, ADVANCE is expecting thousands of crowds to come and discover the creativity of #ANP artists, leveraging the Ocean Climax Music & Art festival happening Sep. 8 to 11; a great platform elevating skate, art, music & culture.
Headlined by Skateboarding Hall of Fame member and globally renowned artist Ed Templeton, and featuring another five members of the #ANP collective, ADVANCE is meant to give echo to the brand’s foundational pillar of art, RVCA being a platform of expression for artists since its very birth fifteen years ago, from the mind of founder PM Tenore.
Allowing uprising artists to gather around subculture spearhead Ed Templeton will allow for crowds to discover and enjoy three weeks of exhibition featuring a variety of creative visions, for a full expression of our roots.
ADVANCE is presented by RVCA and the ANP (Artist Network program), in association with Darwin Ecosystem, Nova Radio, Darwin Ocean Climax festival and managed by the agency Les Sauvages.

The CPH OPEN cruise ship headed back to dock yesterday with what is being touted as the best day of the week so far. Exclusive access to historic buildings, land speed record kick flips, an incredible park session, gladiatorial death races and a watery gap of doom were all on the line up for yesterday’s schedule.
The first stop of the day was at Copenhagen City Hall, surrounded by ancient statues and mosaic floors, skaters competing in the wedge to bench challenge were given plastic axel nut covers to help preserve the 300 year old tiles that got a proper working in the grandeur of this cavernous spot.

Straight outside and it was a case of another city centre shut down and of blatant flouting of Denmark’s strict road speed restrictions for the fastest flip trick comp. Mach 10 skills were given to Madars Apse with a speed of 37 KPH which is allegedly faster than that Usain Bolt between the 40 – 50 metre mark.
So on to the main event, the Finals at the CPH skatepark, newly updated for the event and looking every bit as fun as a world class skate facility should. Skaters that placed top 5 throughout the week were entered into jam format heats and a further top 5 went through to a super final. With such an illustrious line up it was hard to know when and where to look as pros dropped baggers in their lines and bypassed sensibilities in poached runs between heats.
Making the finals and becoming the talk of the comp was Oski, whose near faultless qualifying run of flow and spontaneity was only surpassed by his backside kickflip over the channel. Not being one to be left out of channel floating antics, Evan Smith lofted an insane ally-oop to disaster back revert over the same gap. The super finals fully belonged to Nyjah Huston though who redefines effortless tech, consistency and perfection every time he steps on a board.

Sometimes in skating you are not allowed to want to win, not so in the death race where friendships are left on the coat rack and it’s every man for himself to the finish line. One lap round the park through berms and hips and an ending wallie involved a mixture of speed, agility, luck and elbows. Kevin Baekkel’s steely gaze said he was after a win and snatched it on the second corner from Alex Olsen to pop corks later in the night.
The final event was the ever-hectic Best Trick and to complete the nautical theme the good ship CPH Open came to it’s final resting place in a swimming pool behind the skatepark and conveniently in between 2 jump ramps. This watery leap of doom was too much for some but not for a handful of intrepid salty skate dogs, who, with a seeming disregard for the amount of water on every surface, totally smashed it.

The third day of CPH OPEN madness got everyone down to the canal for some serious early afternoon wake up.
The Christian IV’s Bro triple set is no joke, sitting on the edge of the canal there are more hazards in this make than there are cobble stones in the run up. With an excess of 50+ meters of sprint needed to get enough speed to clear the 2 flat 2 flat 4, skaters had to contend with drain covers, cracks, stones, bikes and a 300 strong crowd that is more reminiscent of the final stages of the Tour de France before they even get to stair set. The short landing right on the canal edge meant that even if you caught a trick there was no guarantee that you weren’t going swimming. The perfect combination for a good session and a treat for skaters and river cruises that we blessed to see Youness Amrani’s bangging hard flip, an over stoked front shuv from Gabriel Fortunato and a switch heel from Neverton Casella. TJ Rogers gets a shout for an unreal switch front 360 ollie that was outside the allotted time.

Being on the canal the transport to the next spot was via the ‘champagne love boats’, 2 river barges thumping out music and packed full of the best skaters in the world. A 30 min journey to an abandoned warehouse set up with 2 simple ledges on a loading bay and some of the best ledge crushers in the biz.
The session was an exercise of head messing wizardry with TJ taking a nollie crook to fakie and switch bigspin heel flip in the line only to be nudged into 2nd spot by a super consistent Luan who was knocking out back to back lines - Switch back 5.0 180 to switch kick flip nose grind and Back tail fakie, fakie hard flip to fakie tail slide.

The second day of the mighty CPH OPEN and it was back to the streets for an afternoon of shutdown and roadblock Copenhagen style.
First stop was the Open Ledge Session at ‘Jarmers Plads’, the OG CPH spot in the city was rammed on a sunny day for some serious attack. Although the ground is deceptively rough the quality of skating in the 10 minute jams was nothing but world class from all competitors.

3. Youness Amrani

5. Luan Oliveira
The journey to the next spot was an event in itself with 500 skaters crusing on bikes led by a sound system in true carnival fashion pack like through the city stoking out everyone it passed.
With everything now legit in skateboarding, session 2 consisted of a long flat rail and 2 jump ramps for 100% old school fly off session. At first confusing some of the younger skaters they we soon set right by a demonstration of style and elegance from Alex Olson by means of Christ Airs and tweaked Japans. With the whole road shut down block party style, skaters needed to hit both the rail and ramp to be in with a chance of some money and the all important ticket to the finals a the CPH Skatepark tomorrow.

If you are around in Bilbao, Spain... today Etnies skate tour featuring Ryan Sheckler, Barney Page, Julian Davidson, Willow, Ryan Lay, Silverster Eduardo and Trevor McClung, enjoy!
The Nike SB Shelter was feeling the heat today for the finals of the 2016 Berlin Open - 31 in the shade of the beer garden where the crowd watched the live stream on the a screen, boiling point inside the park where the 30 skaters laid it down for a part of the €20,000 prize purse.
With a19 year age gap between the oldest and the youngest competitor, nothing seemed to faze 13 year old Herman Moeller out of Malmo who destroyed the park in the semis, dropping tricks that defied the generation gap. He straight no-complyed the stair set, foot planted the wall and locked in fully grown back-smith on the Hubba.
The day’s 30 got cut down to 16, and after 2 days of heavy skating in the heat the toll was paying on the skaters making them need to dig deep into the energy reserves to secure one of the 4 spots up for grabs in the Super Final. Justin Sommer was raging in every round but didn’t link it together at the crucial time, though his front 360 shuvit over the hubba was as stylish as they come. Martin Pek proved that even under pressure you can have fun with a smooth switch blunt on the handrail and nollie blunt on the A frame but also missed out on the big prizes.
The super final was looking like it was going to be epic one for Vincent Milou, a flawless 1 minute run was looking like a comp winner until a back smith flip out attempt left him clutching his ankle and his day was over. Gustavo Ribeiro, a second place podium finisher in the Barcelona AM will be taking another silver trophy home to Portugal by way of a bigger spin flip to front board and a 360 flip to lipslide on the rail, both of which he had on lock all weekend. 1st place however was reserved for Brazilian Ivan Monteiro – 360 flip noseslide down ledge, ollied the big gap from the vert platform and showed a level of consistency throughout the weekend that was well deservving of the winners check.
1st Ivan Monteiro 17 Sao Paulo, Brazil €6000
2nd Gustavo Ribeiro 15 Lisbon, Portugal €4000
3rd Vincent Milou 19 Tarnos, France €3000
Best Trick - Max Kruglov 27 St. Petersburg, RUS €1500 Hard flip back nose blunt on the hubba
