Slack Randoms: Fokey Flies, Surfing Wizards & the Ugliest Kit in Cycling History?

Among the bizarre collaborations we have seen in recent years, the premium roadwear brand Rafa has teamed up with Palace Skateboards to launch this kit for the Education First Team at Giro de Italia this year. It’s a palace duck, white polka dots and inexplicably, a bearded man sniffing your arm holes. The EF press release said, “For a truly fresh perspective on the sport, we have teamed up with an organization that is alien to the beauty of cycling, cares about its origins and is not trained in its traditions”.

We hate it, where can we buy it now?

Absolute proof that your bell is obsolete
Alec Eklows Flair to Fokey
When first semenuk He set up his freecoaster and was the first big drop of a half-big cab in Boniard In 2016, at Crankworks Joiride, he began the trend of pushing the rear wheel forward in mountain biking.

Since then we have seen riding backwards as a standard part of competitions and revisions and one of the major areas of progress in the sport. The latest in the line-up is Alec Eklov, who has become a bit of a fake specialist. His latest trick is to flair the open loop that landed on Fakey, which we think is the first of its kind in the world. The flair is a combination of 180 ్రమ rotation and backflip, with riders usually making sure they can move forward in the quarterpipes. Alec did his skill in the open loop, which means the 180 rotation sees him ride backwards in the faux pas.

Alec can pull the 180 barspin to the puck and the 540 to the puck.
