In Zolder during the European Cup in Bmx Racing the speakers had a good time and talked about a young little guy in a prison suit. It’s was Villads Pedersen! He was riding in our “in 4 life” jersey and gloves with great style and “straight out of jail” as the speakers said. He had a good ride and ended up in the semis! Now, a few weeks later this images above showed up in our stream and we got totally blown away, we love it! It’s things like this that make us wanna work even harder to reach out there! A big shout-out to Villads and Thomas, thanx and see you at the track!

It’s Friday and we just posted a video of Oskar when he was riding a moto down in Spain!
What’s better than hanging around on youtube after a week filled with training and riding! As you know our team rider Oskar was down in Spain for some riding and training and we have got a hold on a video from one of the Bmx racing motos in Mazzaron, Spain! Nice riding as always Oskar!
Oskar crashed hard during practice
About two weeks ago our ambassador Oskar made a hard crash on the track in Kungsbacka. Unfortunately, he broke his collarbone and have to rest from his precious bike a couple of weeks.
He felt a bit down but we are not worried at all. With his skills and flow, he will be hitting the tracks as normal as soon as he’s back on the bike!
This weekend you can see Silje ride in the first UEC European Cup in Zolder!
We are all set to go and our team is out on the tracks doing their things! Yesterday our teammate Silje Rubæk took the flight down to Zolder for the first UEC European Cup in Bmx Racing. This is the first race of the year for Silje and with 1400 riders from 30 countries she sure will have some great racing ahead!
Back here we will fill up our storage of popcorn, start the live stream and cheer for Silje and all our other friends that are down there! Riders ready, watch the gate….
You can follow the live stream here or direct on youtube!

Meet our newest team ambassador Silje Rubæk!
After a winter filled with training and product development, we are over our head of joy to introduce our newest team ambassador, Silje Rubæk! We have been watching her riding a long time and her lifestyle and personality is a perfect match to dwbtoftshit!
Silje is a 33-year-old Danish Bmx Racing rider based in Roskilde with her two kids and husband Jesper (also an awesome rider). They are a true hardcore Bmx family, you know the ones with their bikes in the living room. When we drove down to Silje for a hangout and clothing delivery we got a pleasant welcoming. When we stepped inside her house the smell of fresh new tires & tubes hit us right in the face (this from a newly arrived box filled with Bmx stuff). If you ones have smelled this you know what we’re talking about, a better welcoming is hard to get, thank you!
Silje is racing in the 24″ cruiser class and is progressing for each year. She’s a person that puts a lot of efforts in her training and are not afraid to put in the extra laps needed to reach the goals she has set up for herself. For about 1 year ago Silje had an accident with her Bmx bike during a practice and ended up with two fractures in vertebrae 4 and 5. Luckily the fractures were stable and could get back on the bike immediately as long as she didn’t jump and of cause with a lot of pain. One week later she won the Danish Championship and two weeks after this she got a 5th place in the European Championship.
As you can read Silje has a huge passion, determination and love for her sport. When not racing she’s also involved in the Bmx training for the younger kids, including her own in Roskilde. When you meet her, she not late to give you a smile and if you watch her ride you will sometimes even see the smile under the helmet. At the Bmx Racing indoor track in Roskilde, we watched one of Siljes kids ride and singing at the same time, we can’t stop imagine if Silje also does this while training? Maybe this is why the danish riders are so awesomely successful…
This weekend Silje will travel down to Italy for a training camp at the Bmx Olympic arena in Verona! Here she will warm up, train and get ready for the first UEC European Cup in Zolder, Belgium. We are so excited to hear all about it later and wishing her a warm and great weekend.
Anywho, we are so honored that Silje wanted to join us and our team and we are looking forward to continue seeing her ride, smiling and taking holeshots around the world in the name of dwbtoftshit! Welcome to us Silje Rubæk!

dwbtoftshit! is in Denmark and hanging out with our next team ambassador!
Yes, that’s right! We’re spending this weekend in Denmark and hanging out with our new Team Ambassador! This is a person that represents everything we stand for and we are so stoked to have this person on board. To follow this person’s journey around the world wearing our brand is something that we are really happy and proud about!
So after a day filled with driving, kids, fashion walks, clothing, headwear, pizza slicing, BMX riding and photography we are now looking forward to the next couple of days and are eager to get every detail in place before we introduce our new member and friend to you ?
My 2 weeks in Spain!
Hey guys!
As some of you may know I’m Oskar Kindblom, one of the ambassadors in team dwbtoftshit. We have recently made it possible for me to blog on an own section of this website. So I think it’s time for me to update you guys of what has been going on for me these past 2 weeks.So roughly 2 weeks ago I left Sweden for a bmx-camp in Spain. At the moment I’m back in Sweden, and I thought why not let you guys know a bit about how the trip went and how it has changed my mindset for the upcoming season. This trip was one of the best trips of my life. It has made me learn a hole lot of new things and motivated me to train even harder to become the best.
I arrived at the night on a Wednesday. I had 2 days to get to know the bike and the tracks before the first race in El Campello. One of the best parts of racing in new competitions in Spain is that you don’t know any of the other riders you are racing. It makes it much more exciting.
The track felt really good and I was mentally prepared. I got 1st in all of my motos, 1st in the semifinal and 2nd in the final after a great german rider. Second day I won all the motos as the day before, had a bad semifinal with a fourth place but still managed to qualify for the final. I got 3rd in the final this time with 2 guys from Germany in front of me. I was very excited with my results that weekend because the competition was tough.
Now I had 5 days of training before we were going to Mazzaron for the second race-weekend. We were at San Vicente, El Campello a couple of times, we also got a workout at Costa Blanca’s cross fit. The other Swedish guys arrived at the Thursday. We then went to Mazzaron together on the Friday. We got some training in at the track in the evening.
There were a lot of people from different countries there. For example the Dutch teams, the French, Austrian, Danish, Norwegians and Germans. It turned out to be a lot of great riders. This time I got 1:st in all the motos. 2nd in the semi and 4th in the final. Second day I got the same results but this time there were one more great rider in our age division, (Bart van Bemmelen). But totally with all of my points from the motos etc, I got the overall 3rd place that weekend. I was really happy with both my results and my riding.
After this weekend I had 3 days of training left before I was going home to Sweden. We were riding at San Vicente, Elche, Campello and the new pumptrack built by Marc Killian. I’m overall extremely excited with how the trip turned out and I look forward until the next trip!
I also managed to make an edit from these weeks. Check it out!
Träningsläger i Hal11, Roskilde
Förra helgen var delar av teamet, bland annat Oskar, nere i Danmark och körde träningsläger på Roskilde Bmx inomhusbana Hal11. Vi var ca 10 svenskar som körde träning tillsammans med ett tiotal danska åkare och det blev två riktigt kul dagar med hård träning på en tight och utmannande liten bana. Träningen ledes av två danska tränare med bra meriter, Jesper Juel Rubæk Simonsen och Jack Funder Christensen. Vi får se till att bygga en sådan här Bmx racing hall i Sverige snart!
Tack till Oskar Lindberg och Denis Leimberg för att ni styrde upp!
Training camp in Hall11, Roskilde!
Last weekend a part of the dwbtoftshit! where down in Denmark and had a training camp at Roskilde BMX indoor track Hal11. We were about 10 Swedes along with a dozen Danish riders that had two days of really fun and hard training on this tight and challenging little track. The training was led the by two Danish coaches, Jesper Juel Rubaek Simonsen and Jack Funder Christensen. We have to build something similar Bmx racing track here in Sweden soon!
Thanks to the Oskar Lindberg and Denis Leimberg who made this happend!
