2012 TSG Gear
// January 16

Founded in Germany in 1988, TSG set out to develop protection gear, which skateboarders would really want to wear. Mission completed: TSG’s helmets and pads revolutionized the industry, the brand’s strong commitment to marketing and sponsorship became a role model in the business. The TSG quality and design soon gained popularity among American skaters, encouraging the brand to sign with a US distributor in 1996. In 1999, TSG entered the snowboard market with their skate-style snowboard helmets introducing a totally new look to the world of winter sports. Former Santa Cruz Snowboards R&D and team manager, Swiss Ruedi Herger, became TSG’s new product and brand manager in 2004. Aiming for a more intense brand development and bigger product portfolio, he started to explore other sports markets, such as mountain biking, BMX, wakeboarding and skiing. About a year later Herger and partners bought out the brand and relocated the company’s headquarters and design lab to Zurich, Switzerland. Today, TSG International AG is one of the world’s most comprehensive international suppliers and distributors of skateboard, bike, snowboard, ski and wakeboard safety gear. Backpacks, accessories and a small apparel line complete the program. .
Sidewall Distro is an exclusive distributor of TSG BMX, MTB, Snow & Wake Helmets & Safety gear in the U.S.

Battleground BMX
// January 9

Battleground BMX is having a contest called Man Down. The concept here is simple. Since it’s January and people may not be able to ride as much due to the weather we figured out something neat to do with your old footage. This is a contest for the best crash clip. You can submit a video from that was filmed anytime and you can submit as many videos as you want. You will have from Monday, January 9 until Wednesday, February 1 to submit your videos. At the conclusion of this contest we will narrow down the best crashes and let you guys vote on your favorite. The top two riders with the most votes will each win a TSG Kraken helmet in the size and color scheme of their choosing. BattleGround BMX will also choose a grand prize winner who will get their choice of the regular Kraken Helmet, the Kraken Art Design Flores or the full face Staten Carbon. Each winner will also receive a BattleGround BMX t shirt. The official Sponsor for this contest is TSG Helmets. Check them out at www.ridetsg.com
