During the premiere tour for Ride’s ‘Sincerely Yours’, the crew made a stop in Amsterdam, at their friends from Behind The Pines. Their local team member Wouter Groot took the opportunity to show them how snowboarding is done in Holland so the crew headed to Den Haag for the Snow Dome “De Uithof”, 2 hours from the capital. Here’s what they had to say about it…
“The laps are super fast and it’s fun to ride a completely different park every day”
It’s one of the last dome that doesn’t require you to wear a helmet to access the slope, and on top of that we had carte blanche to build the modules we wanted!
During these 3 days, with Dario Burch, Louis Labertrande, Wouter Groot, Pierrot Scafidi and Amon Eisenmann, we build the set up for 1 or 2 hours in the early afternoon and then we ride until closing time.
The laps are super fast and it’s fun to ride a completely different park every day.
The locals usually come to ride 2-3 hours after their work day, with so many runs in such a short time it’s easy to see why indoor riders are so technical!
For this video we really wanted to have a DIY and creative side in addition to the “classic” park to bring a little more skate vibe. For the production it’s signed Brust Studio with Guillaume Sturma behind the VX1000.
Thanks to Rutger and everyone at De Uithof, Behind The Pines, and Wouter Groot for the tour!
