Last 16-17 of March extreme sport event Simple Session was held in Tallinn Saku Arena. SS13 had 3 disciplines – Skate, BMX and Girls Session (BMX) – bringing to Tallinn more than 200 top athletes. In 2 days more than 10000 spectators visited Simple Session and it was broadcasted live in full HD via Extreme.com, Session.ee and X-Box.

DC as a main partner for Simple Session 13 hosted VIP’s, riders distributors and clients with VIP lounge. DC products were presented in special shop area together with special merchandise – t-shirts, foam hand, beanies.

BURNING INK ISTANBUL The 6th edition of Burning Ink Art Show officially kicked off in Istanbul last Friday 29th at 8pm, as a crowd descended on Galipdede Cad to see what this unique Show, at Milk Gallery, had to offer. With a selection of original hand drawn creation from world-renowned street artists, graphic designers and illustrators, Burning Ink caught intrigued eyes of more than 300 persons and happy fellows enjoying some drinks.

Ilhan Bilir, one of the three hosting tattoo artists with Rofrose and Dramatik , inked some skin during the launch . If you missed out, it’s not over, you can still head down to Milk Gallery and check out the art, as the show stays open to the public for the next 10 days.

Then on Friday the 12th of April, the Closing Ceremony brings all to a fiery end, when the pieces of art will be burnt, to only survive if inked into a new canvas, a buyer's skin. Followed by an after party and live band.

Here is an edit of the Opening Ceremony on Friday 29th.

An article about Burning Ink has been published in Time Out Istanbul.
