Bôyz (Hôrky Boyz)

Winter is over. Summer begins. And we still want to shred. All year long. That's why we built our rail-garden in Hôrky near Žilina. Check this short video of how does a normal day in HS Railpark look like. Riding with local guys and also with our friends from Žilina and its surroundings. And btw, can you do math? What is 4+4+3+3 ? Yes it's 14,  14 meters. That's how long you can jib when you combine our rails wisely. And it is the longest rail in Slovakia. Want to hit it? So what are you waiting for, come and ride with us, we are always open :)

Zima skončila. Leto začína. A my chceme stále jazdiť. Celý rok. Preto sme postavili našu rail-záhradku vo Hôrkach pri Žiline. Pozri si toto krátke video ako vyzerá normálny deň v HS Railpark-u. Jazdíme s domácimi ale aj s priateľmi zo Žiliny a jej okolia. A mimochodom, viete počítať? Koľko je 4+4+3+3 ? Áno je to 14. 14 metrov. Tak dlho môžete jibovať ak rozumne pokombinujete naše zábradlia. A je to najdlhší rail na Slovensku. Chceš ho dať? Tak na čo ešte čakáš? Prídi a zajazdi si s nami, u nás je vždy otvorené:)

Comix Jib Jam vol. 6

This year's Comix on 25/3/2014 took place as usually at the University of Žilina dormitory blocks Hliny. Set-up was built from a street rail and run-in was in shape of a pyramid so you just chose your side and went for it.
List of riders wasn't too long but it didn't affect quality and style of the tricks. Backsides, frontsides, switch-ups, pretzels spins and twists, in and outs. It was worth watching. So big up for all the skiers and snowboarders who came and put up a good show for the whole audience.
In the name of tft we would like to thank to our sponzors Rossignol, Bulwarshop, Park99, IRŠ Rapeš, Vulcano Pizzeria, Šimo Veľkoobchod a maloobchod s nápojmi, Pažický Veľkoobchod a maloobchod for help and prizes and to our media-partners freeskier.sk and boardlife.sk for making this event visible and VLN Production for photos and Jakub Lubellan for video support
Last but not least a big thank goes to all the guys who helped with set-up construction, speaking, shaping and just making sure that everything went smooth.  And thanks to blue-silver can that kept us in shape the whole time.
We are already have great plans for the next year, so make sure you will show up !

Day in the gym

Whether there is, or there is no snow (like this year's winter in central Europe :( ) it is always important to stay in shape. That's why we organize our work-outs in the trampoline center in Karpatska School in Zilina. One hour of jumping, running, falling or screaming guaranties that you will at least sleep like a baby that night. Besides burning muscles in your legs and being out of your breath. And of course you can practice your doubles, safely before doing them on snow. Check the photos and a short vid at the end.

Či už je, alebo nie je sneh (ako túto zimu v strednej Európe :( ) vždy je dobré zostať vo forme. To je dôvod prečo organizujeme naše tréningy v trampolínovej hale na základnej škole na Karpatskej ulici v Žiline. Jedna hodina skákania, behania, padania alebo kričania ti garantuje že aspoň v ten večer budeš spať ako dieťa. Teda okrem toho že ťa budú páliť svaly na nohách a budeš lapať po dychu. A samozrejme že môžeš skúšať svoje double predtým sa do nich pustíš na snehu. Pozrite foto a kratke video na konci

Streets of Vienna

Winter 2012/2013 was really rich as far as considering the amount of snow. Even in Vienna people didn't remember that much snow in years. Some said in 25 years. You have to take advantage of that. Therefore I couldn't sit in a library but called Urban and Sam and some other friends and we went to hit the streets. Most of the photos were took in 15th district. Check photos and short video at the end.

Zima 2012/2013 bola naozaj bohatá na sneh. Aj vo Viedni si ľudia nepamätúju tak veľa snehu už roky. Niektorí hovoria až o 25 rokoch. To treba využiť. Nemohol som sedieť v knižnici a preto som zavolal Urban-ovi a Sam-ovi a nejakým ďalším kamošom a vydali sme sa do ulíc. Väčšina záberov bola natočených v 15tom bezirku. Viac už na fotkách a na krátkom videjku na konci.

Snow Film Fest 2013_Čadca

Snow Film Fest in Čadca on the 16/11/2013 was a film festival focused on winter sports. One of us, Ondrej Panek was invited as a guest and we of course had to support him so we decided to head up to the north part of Slovakia. 

Ondrej had a chance to hold a presentation on a topic "Unusual places for skiing". Skiing in Lesotho, Spain or in Skihalle near Dresden were one of his main points. Of course he didn't forget to mention our HS Railpark in Hôrky. At the beginning of presentation we could watch the tft videos that were shot throughout our 3-year history. tft had a great opportunity to show and to present it's production. People liked Ondrej's presentation and gave him and the whole tft crew a big applause at the end. 

In the main parts of the festival we could see short movies about the expedition to the South Pole, riding powder, developement of a czech snowboard scene or surfing in Norway. Beautiful nature and incredible camera shots made this a super evening + Ondrej's presentation as a great addition to the whole program.
We would like to thank the organizators for providing the possiblity to show people what we do and thank you goes as well to Ondrej for his good promo for tft.

16.11.2013 sa v Čadci konal festival s názvom Snow Film Fest, kde bol pozvaný ako hosť aj jeden z našich radov Ondrej Panek. Samozrejme sme ho museli ísť podporiť a vybrali sme sa aj my na sever Slovenska.
 Ondrej mal prezentáciu na tému "Netradičné miesta na lyžovanie". Spomínal Lesotho v Afrike, lyžovanie v Španielsku, halu pri Drážďanoch, ale aj náš HS Railpark vo Hôrkach. Na začiatku festivalu boli premietané tft videá, ktoré boli počas našej 3-ročnej existencie natočené. tft malo teda dobrú príležitosť odprezentovať a ukázať svoju tvorbu.Prezentácia sa ľuďom veľmi páčila a Ondreja, aj celé tft, na konci odmenili potleskom.Tiež sme mohli vidieť krátke filmy z expedície za polárny kruh, jazdenie prašanov, vývoj českej snowboardovej scény, surfing v Nórsku. Nádherná príroda a krásne zábery sa postarali o nadupaný večer + Ondrejova prednáška ako čerešnička na torte. Ďakujeme, že sme mali možnosť ukázať ľuďom, čo robíme a Ondrejovi za jeho reprezentáciu tft!

Fridge Festival Vienna

                                                Donauinsel with Vienna in the background

On 22-23 November we had a chance to be a part of the crew that headed to Fridge Festival Vienna. Pure Production with Jakub Lubellan,  PhotoMartini with Martin Zilka and our tft team. City Big Air contest with a huge ramp build in the center of Vienna was really an unforgettable experience. Best freeskiers and snowboarders from the whole Europe came to Donauinsel to trow doublecorks till 1440 spins or double rodeos. We were so happy as a freeskier.sk representatives to get into the "Press-Riderszone". So chilling, talking, and just hanging out on the same couch with guys like Elias Ambühl, Jesper Tjäder, Niklas Ericsson or Kai Mahler was more than a "dreamsarecomingtrue". And afterwards concerts with bands like Pendulum and Prodigy. What more can you ask for. 

It was just hell of a great time and we are already looking forward for the next year !

22-23 Novembra sa nám naskytla možnosť ísť na Fridge Festival Vienna. Partia v zložení Jakub Lubellan z Pure Production, Martin Žilka z PhotoMartini a samozrejme my z tft. Mestský big air s obrovským skokom priamo v centre Viedne bol ozaj nezabudnuteľný zážitok. Najlepší freeskieri a snowboardisti z celej európy prišli na Donauinsel aby vrátili triky ako Doublecorks 1440 alebo double rodeos. Bolo sa ozaj na čo pozerať. Mali sme to štastie že sme sa ako vyslanci z portálu freeskier.sk mohli dostať až do "Press-Riderszone". Takže vysedávanie a debatovanie na tom istom gauči s menami ako Elias Ambühl, Jesper Tjäder, Niklas Ericsson alebo Kai Mahler bolo viac než "snysastávajúskutočnosťou".
Bol to ozaj super sobotný program a na záver ešte koncerty skupín Pendulum a Prodigy. Čo viac možeš chcieť.

Výsledky: Freeski:

1. Christian Bieri (SUI)
2. Luca Schuler (SUI)
3. Elias Ambühl (SUI)
