Team Terror: The Rome Session at Windells

TEAM TERROR: THE ROME SIGNATURE SESSION AT WINDELLS

June is here and the Summer Camp of Terror is about to start at Windells—a bloodbath of shred with Artifact 1985s impaling LNP, Folsom boot laces strangling Bjorn, and the 390 rising out of Trillium Lake to decapitate campers with the edge of the highback.

And adding to the fun of it all is Team Terror.

Team Terror is the Rome Signature Session at Windells when riders from the SDS descend on camp. During Session 3 from June 26th to July 3rd, Rome riders Bjorn Leines, Eiki Helgason, Marius Otterstad, and Johnnie Paxson will be at camp to coach and hang out with riders. They’ll design custom features on hill during the day and play games of S.K.A.T.E. in BOB (Windells’ skate facility) at night with the campers.

The Windells demo center will be loaded with the new 2010 line from Rome: Poprock powered Artifact 1985s, super snappy Mods, 390s, Libertines, and more. As always Rome Night will feature the opportunity to win a ton of Rome schwag, including a new 2010 jacket from the SDS Outerwear collection.

Head to www.windells.com to sign up for Session 3 so you don’t miss out the signature session with the Rome team at Hood this summer.

Checking in with MFM and FODT

Marc Frank, Travis Kennedy and crew are still hanging out at camp, enjoying grub from the awesome Windells kitchen staff and hanging out on campus in the afternoons when it’s not as hot out. We checked in with MFM today to see what they’ve been up to so far.

Says Marc Frank, “we came to Windells ’cause this is the dopest spot by far with all the concrete, all the skating….The whole vibe down here is dope and the people that work here are dope. I’ve known Tim Windell for a long time and he always hooks it up and shows love to us and we show love back and it’s all like family over here, so it’s cool.”

MFM continued, saying, “we got here and rode a little park just to kinda get warmed up to the different kind of corn/slush snow. The first two days we’ve just been scoping and hanging out, kinda skating and playing basketball. Tomorrow we’ll really start working.  We’ve scoped out a couple of things to build, so we’re going to go build ‘em and film ‘em.”

Marc Frank Montoya just got into camp last night, the first of many pros who will be hanging out this summer. He’s in town with fellow FOTD shreds, Travis Kennedy and Kareem El Rafie and FODT filmer Drew Satin, getting shots for their new film and checking out the skate set up at camp. “Windells hooked it up again and it gets sicker every year. I feel like I’m 12 again,” said MFM. Travis agreed, “we’re all happy to be here once again and to try out the new skate stuff. We’re out here filming for our new movie, MFM Productions/Finger on da Trigger’s Hard to Earn.”

Check back tomorrow for more from MFM, Travis, Kareem and Drew.
