OASEN is Swedish for OASIS ; a pleasant area in the midst of a difficult place or hectic situation. A refuge. In this uncertain time, and in life in general, everyone is constantly searching for their Oasis. Snowboarding defines that escapism. Vans’ Europe Snowboarding team’s latest film, Oasen, is made with the intention of inspiring others to go out and find their own Oasen, wherever that may be.
Filmed in Austria, Switzerland and Sweden, and driven by one of our most inspiring riders; Benny Urban, Oasen follows a tight crew of good friends on their quest to push the boundaries of street riding through creativity and good times.
The most amazing wild rides of the season from the NHRA! 2021 was another insane year with an incredible amount of action from nitro Top Fuel, Funny Car, Pro Stock, Pro Stock Motorcycle, Pro Mod and more.
This video features our countdown of the most hardcore fires, crashes and saves of the season. It will leave you holding your breath, but no drivers had major injuries after any of these incidents.
The NHRA has a great safety record, and these incidents show why. The fact that two cars can hit and flip at over 200mph, with the drivers walking away, is a demonstration of the high standards. From NHRA legend John Force to Hot Rod Drag Week champion Tom Bailey, there are many stars in this video, and all had wild rides.
Today we are taking a deep dive into the history of sport climbing. Let’s find out what the hardest routes in the world were at their time. There has been lots of events these last years that all had the potential to rewrite history! I took those into account and compare many sources to compile this list of routes. Since rock climbing grading is so subjective and the sport developed independently in many different countries this list will never be fully accurate, but I tried my best. –
