Hockern is essentially extreme sitting, where athletes perform a series of tricks and stunts with a special stool called a Sporthocker. At the end of a set of tricks, the athlete comes to a stop in a sitting position on the stool. it's about being creative with this weirdly shaped tool..."It is a movement, a trend, a new sport. "Hockern" describes a new way to perform acrobatic tricks with a specially designed stool using natural obstacles like chairs, rails or walls."- Inventor of Sporthocker..I say- Get a skateboard or BMX mate and stop trying to cut corners.

Once in a while you will get a rider who will blow you away with his originality...Tim Knoll is the first for me this year. He combines Flatland and Street skills to make a weird hybrid that fully utilises the environment he's riding in..Love it!
One owl, three versions...when I first saw this, I though whatevs, but the best bit is the '3rd version'. This owl naturally puffs itself up when pitted against other owls of the same size, but watch what happens when the owl is face to face with a bird twice its height...sheer brilliance. MotherNature at its best!
