For 2024 we restructure and streamline our mountain bike glove collection, with three new models up for grabs. It’s never been so easy to find the perfect glove for your ride.
TSG Bike Glove Lineup
We’ve nine kick-ass bike gloves in our new streamlined and restructured glove collection. They cover all weathers, riding terrains and price brackets and each pair is built for supreme comfort, performance, durability and grip.
Three new mtb gloves for spring 2024.
The Easy Glove
New to our summer line is the Easy Glove, the ultimate slip-on lightweight trail glove. It has ventilated 4-way stretch mesh upper and finger gussets with seamless fingertip construction, which make them super light and comfortable. And a sticky one-piece mesh silicone palm and silicone print brake fingers deliver gecko like grip and control. It’s easy to see why our team loves ‘em on warm summer missions.

Our most versatile new glove is the Good Glove, which we designed for durability and comfort in all conditions. It has a comfortable vented 4-ways stretch upper and tough vented one-piece synthetic suede palm for durability. Sticky silicone print brake fingers give it bear-like grip and Velcro closure keeps it safe and secure. For added comfort the Good also has stretch panels between the fingers and overlapping finger design with seamless fingertips. This is all kept in place with a secure Velcro wrist closure.

For riders that like their riding wet and cold we created the brand-new bad weather Shelter Glove. It is built from a light wind and water-resistant material, with an inner nano liner, and water repellent Amara palm, which extends into the neoprene cuff. You don’t even have to take the Shelter off when calling in sick, as the index finger touch screen sensitive. Just keep riding – that is the Shelters motto.

These three new gloves join our all-star stable of hand protection for men, women and kids. Your time on the trails, single track, parks and city streets will benefit from the protection, comfort and grip that TSG gloves deliver.
The new glove line makes it easier for you to find the right glove for your use.

Leonardo Vinicius may only be eleven, but he possesses a self-taught skate style way beyond his years. Read his interview.

Leonardo Vinicius may only be eleven and knee high to a grasshopper, but he possesses a self-taught skate style way beyond his years and has a head on him that will take him far in skate and beyond. Want proof? Not every kid is trusted by Tony Hawk to ollie over him in the pipe!
Stoked to be his new protection sponsors TSG tracked him between school and skate, at home in Spain, to ask him a few choice question on life, skate and living the dream.
First off, it is not that often that you get to interview an 11-year-old that has ‘PRO’ in his title. How stoked are you to be skating pro at such a young age?
I went from watching Moto Shibata every day on video to standing next to him, doing tricks that I learned watching his videos.
I earned the PRO title through hard work, no one gave it to me, I just feel that way. It’s for my dedication and discipline. Normally in Skate you aren’t a PRO until a board brand makes a model with your name on it.
I read a message someone posted on one of your Insta reels that they thought you were the next Danny Way – That is one hell of a statement to live up to don’t you think?
An excited fan can say things that are way over exaggerated. Danny Way is one of a kind. In a couple of months, if all goes well, I’ll meet him and be able to talk about skate.
Who were the skaters that you watched to get as good as you are?
All the skaters I’ve seen up until now, but each one of them has given me something. I must tell you that I’ve learned without having a pro tutor by my side, and as such other skaters have been luckier than me. Hosoi, Ueda, Sloan, I can name a bunch of them, but above all the great flyers have been my inspiration
Leonardo skates everyday in Burgos vert ramp
Are you going to be the skater your younger brothers and sisters look up to as a mentor of transition?
My brothers don’t like to skate with me to skate as my sessions are hard. They only come skating with me when we are going to have fun. I am one of the oldest kids in the family and I must set an example in many things. But doing what I do with so much discipline is not something that the little ones are necessarily in to.
And how was it skating with some of the guys at the X Games? A dream come true?
Every day I watch the video of my best round in X Games to believe that I was there. Just think, I was selected for X Games, and I had never been to America, I’d never met a pro and it had only been 5 years since I got on a skateboard for the first time – I don’t think there’s another case like mine.
I went from watching Moto Shibata every day on video to standing next to him, doing tricks that I learned watching his videos. Eliot Sloan was super good to me, and Gui Khury treated like he was an older brother the two times I was next to him. Also think about this, when I had my fourth and last go, Tony Hawk was there telling me, “Leo, relax, it’s your time.” Can you understand what this is like? It’s like you can’t believe it. But I lived it and I feel lucky.
What was the next best thing that happened to you in 2023? I am guessing it was getting to hang out with Tony Hawk, doing doubles?
The best thing about 2023 was that my entire family was healthy, and we have been closer than ever despite being away from home for many weeks. The one moment that really sticks with me is getting the invitation to X Games. It was the greatest possible prize for the greatest effort ever made by my family. It was like the steamroller that squashed all the skepticism in me.
There are still people who ask me about where I came, without taking into consideration that there, there were only extraordinary skaters, none of whom are the number one, but they are all super skaters capable of winning when it is there day.
I am Spanish, it was the second competition of my life, the first was the World Cup in Argentina, I went when I was 11 years old, becoming, if I am not mistaken, the third youngest in the history of Vert X Games. It is difficult to think of something bigger than this. Other things will come up, but this is hard to beat.
Lastly, anyone can double over Tony if he is up for it, but what I did, Ollie on the second attempt, with the responsibility and him passing underneath me at full speed, that is without doubt a moment that is burned into my retina forever.
Alright, what does a regular day in your life look like? I am guessing there is always a bit of riding the half-pipe in Santecilla, Burgos?
Every day I get up early for the first session, 7-8 in the morning depending on the day, then I go to school. When a championship is coming up, I add another session at 7-8 at night. Two years ago, my family moved to live next to Half Pipe and it was a success. Having the ramp so close to home, about 7 km, makes it easier to combine skateboarding with life.
You must be stoked to have TSG gear to keep you in one piece in the pipe? What is your favourite piece of kit?
Well, you could say that things have been exemplary with TSG. From the first moment they have not messed around and given me all the material I could ever need, in fact double.
I believe in what they’re doing, in the people behind it, and love the quality of the gear. It is for sure letting me ride at the highest level being super protected. And the fact that they have both interior and exterior protection has massively improved my safety.
Have you got any words of advice for any kids your age and younger who dream of skating X Games?
Of course, I’ve got some advice; I’ve got thousands. One of them is that they be free, which is what skateboarding is, right? That they feel free on the board, do it their way, on the ramp, on the street, wherever they want, how they want. Arriving at the X Games is another thing, and it is an adventure that’s not within everyone’s reach; you must be realistic. Dream for sure but keep it real. Nobody gets to the X Games without serious professional dedication.
And finally, what are your dreams for 2024 and beyond?
For 2024 my dream is for my family to stay together for another year, with health and happiness and of course be in an X Games final again. And we’ve got the world championships of vert in the WRG of Italy, which will be something special and it is for national squads, and I’ll be representing my country.
I believe in what TSG is doing, in the people behind it, and love the quality of the gear
TSG’s mountain bike team just got a fresh pair of wheels with the addition of 20-year-old UK freestyle ace Jake Atkinson. Welcome to the team Jake.
Jake is one of those glitches in the matrix of professional mountain bike, dropping out of nowhere to rattle the rankings with a bag of tricks and truck loads of natural style. Earning his ticket to ride in nationals Jake rode out of the shadows of his hometown Kendal to land second place at the 2023 Red Bull Roof Ride. He’s got the guts to drop new tricks like 360 triple truck drivers in competitions.
“I’ve always dreamt of getting into the biggest events, but I never thought it would happen as fast as it did,” Jake admits.
Jake grew up smashing the rocks and trails of Kendal, in England’s green and pleasant Lake District and on his journey to pro status he’s ridden it all, from trials at seven, BMX at eleven and now MTB slopestyle. His intuitive style and a hunger for a seat at the top table of biking has seen him pop up from unknown rider to Red Bull Rookie of the Year 2023 in the turn of a cog.
But drive aside he’s also biking for all the right reason: “I’m just trying to have a good time and keep whatever I’m doing as fun as possible!”
Barcelona times
Jake and TSG are set to have a ton of fun as partners and the safer he feels in our kit the more confident he’ll be dropping hammers.
Welcome to the team Jake – Go hard!
“I’m super stoked on the partnership with TSG. It feels great to be a part of a team of riders you have always looked up to and I’m looking forward to the future to see what comes!”
The BMX mistress of tricks and all-round Ms amazing
BMX mistress of tricks Nikita Ducarroz is our freshest addition to the TSG Global Team and as advocate for mental health, a killer bee on a bike and an all-round good egg, there is no better person to chat with to stoke the need to get padded up and send it than Nikita.
by DANNY BURROW – photos: ANGIE MARINO & LEIGH RAMSDELL
Hey Nikita, you had an amazing international upbringing, with a Swiss dad, American mum, and childhood split between California and Switzerland. How was that?
I feel so lucky to have grown up in that dual culture between the US and Europe. We spoke French with our dad and English with our mom and got to spend a lot of time in Switzerland with our family there. Sometimes it felt a bit strange as a kid as I never really felt like I fitted in 100% with either side, but I wouldn’t change anything if I could.
What was your roadmap from football to BMX? It’s a pretty extreme change of discipline…
Ha! It just sort of happened naturally. Or, ‘unnaturally” I guess you could say. Football was everything for me. But when anxiety and panic attacks started to take over my life around 14, it became more and more difficult to keep up with the requirements of a team sport and I eventually quit, with the stipulation from mom that I had to find something else active to replace it. I started by just riding my bike around the local walking trails we had, until one day I discovered BMX through YouTube videos. That was it. I was hooked. I saved up for a proper BMX bike and started riding in my driveway until I had the guts to go to the local skatepark. I never looked back.
How would you compare a team sport like football (sorry can’t call it soccer as am English) and BMX? I mean the mindset of it not the mechanics on the field of play.
I guess at the base of all sports the mindset is the same. Pushing yourself to be better, train harder, achieve more etc. But the mindset for BMX once you get past those similarities is so far beyond any team sport. The risk is so much higher in every little thing we are doing, so the mental aspect is big. I think on top of making all the typical sports stuff like repetition, consistency, pushing through etc, you have that fear factor that you have to push through at all times. You have to be ok with crashing, getting hurt, and that it’s just a normal part of the sport. It really is such a huge mental battle.
What was it about BMX and the community that surrounds it that “saved your life”?
I felt so free entering the BMX community because I could just be there, no one was counting on me but myself, and there were no rules etc. That took the pressure off me that I felt with team sports. The community was so immediately welcoming, they were all ages, backgrounds, yet we all just shared this passion that brought us together and none of that mattered. I found a place that I could slowly work on myself to have less anxiety about leaving my house, without any of the constraints of a team sport that just brought on constant panic attacks. Riding also taught me how to keep pushing for something, because of the process of trying and learning new tricks. And I think I really was able to take that mindset I learned from that into life and into working through my anxiety.
I am so in awe of you setting up MindTricks: Can you tell us how that project came about please?
I really tried to make a point of sharing Instagram posts here and there that were raw and vulnerable, to show the not so pretty side of things. The un-manicured, not perfect side of Instagram. To be real and show my journey as an athlete, especially one dealing with mental health problems. We set up MindTricks after thinking maybe it would be cool to have a central location that I could continue sharing my posts of that nature, while also talking to more athletes and sharing their stories, to encourage others who might be going through similar things and feeling like they are alone.
Is it the mission of MindTricks to save the lives of others by giving them a safe space in which to talk about their anxiety?
The goal was really just to have a space where we could share people’s stories of being athletes and dealing with mental health and mental illness and encouraging people to open up and not be afraid to talk about it and ask for help. Just really normalize the conversation around it, so that if someone is ever suffering in silence, maybe they read one of the posts and realize that it can affect anyone, even these “perfect” professional athletes, and that it’s ok, and not a weakness to ask for help.
For so many, the arena of competitive sports is a terrifying prospect, but you come into your own when the pressures on. Can you tell us a little about what gets you hyped about competing?
I won’t lie, I get incredibly nervous at competitions and usually all I want to do when I’m standing up on the deck before it’s go-time is go home. But I just love that feeling of having 60 seconds to show what you have come up with, 60 seconds to try your line, and the adrenaline that comes with it. I also just love the travel that comes with it, getting to compete in so many different countries, experiencing new cultures… it’s amazing.
How did the DDASC training facility in North Carolina get you prepared in body and mind for going all in?
Moving to the DDASC in 2020 was the best decision I ever made. It was right before the world shut down from Covid and I was able to continue training with a small group of the world’s best with no distractions. Having that routine, riding every day, and those guys around to push me really helped me focus in on my weak areas both mentally and physically, and put the work in to be a better rider. It was such an adventure leading up to Tokyo 2020 and memories I’ll never forget.
You have a bulging trophy cabinet, which includes silver at 21’ and 22’ Worlds and the European Champs and Bronze at the Olympics: Is there a win or even a loss that stands out in your professional career as a moment that moved your world?
I mean the Olympic medal for sure was that one that just didn’t (and still doesn’t) feel real. Never in my entire life did I think BMX would take me to the Olympics, and so to be standing there with the opportunity to not only compete at them but come home with a medal was unreal. I feel like when I started riding BMX, it was just something I did for myself, it made me happy. There weren’t really any competitions for women, and I didn’t even really know that was out there. I was just riding because. So, to stand on that podium and know that I was able to take that feeling and show the sport to the entire world, to a whole side that maybe didn’t know about BMX before, that was really cool.
What have you got penned in the calendar for you and your bike, including Paris 2024?
For now, I’m just getting ready for the Games! I’m going to spend some time in Costa Rica training; there will be some qualifying events before Paris, and I’ll just be working on my tricks and preparing mentally. After that we still have more events like any other year so it’s going to be a big travel year for competitions. I would say that’s definitely the focus of 2024, competitions. Japan, France, China x2, Hungary, and the UAE.
You must be stoked to be taking on the future with TSG protection?
So stoked! The half shell helmet from TSG has always been hands down my favourite one, so making that switch only made sense. And, of course just to know there’s such an extensive line of protective gear as well, I have all my needs covered in one shot. I’m excited to work with a brand that’s in Switzerland, and a brand that really works closely with the riders to come out with the best stuff!
What would you like to say to any kids out there that are having a hard time and looking for a new direction in their world?
Have patience with yourself, be kind to yourself. Sometimes things take time. If you just work on one thing each day, pick one task to battle, no matter how small, that stuff adds up in the end. Just take that first step
So happy to be riding for TSG! In addition to the helmets, there are so many other models of protective gear which are an absolute necessity in BMX, so there’s really something for everyone!
Read on for our tips on finding the right helmet to keep your kids safe while biking.
Find the right helmets for biking kids
In this guide, we’ll provide practical advice on selecting the appropriate helmet for your child’s biking needs. We’ll explore the key factors to consider when choosing a helmet and how to match it with your child’s biking activities to ensure their safety.
A comfortable secure fit is key
Keep them safe while having fun.
What makes a good fitting helmet?
Fit
A kid’s helmet should fit snuggly without wobbling around and should definitely not obscure their vision. A comfortable secure fit will boost them confidence, not distract their minds from riding and keep their mellow in one piece when they do come off.
Adjustability
Good helmets come with adjustability and range from easy micro adjustments with sizing wheel – not to be used to fit an oversized helmet in the hope that they might grow into it – and removable sizing pads. These are a feature of skateboard and slopestyle helmets, and different thicknesses of sizing pads can be used to get the perfect fit. These helmets are lightweight, provide superb coverage and unimpaired lines of sigh and are perfect for kids stepping up their freestyle game.
Weight
Children are still growing and their necks are not yet as strong as a full-grown adult. Therefore, a light helmet is an advantage. Our smallest helmets are all built in a lightweight in-mold construction and start at a weight of 210 gr.
What type of helmets is the best for my kid?
Helmets for Mini Kids / Starting out
Kids starting out on a balance bike or riding with stabilizers need a snug fitting helmet, with a deep fit that provides full coverage, including the back and sides of the head. It is also advisable to avoid having a peak, as super groms tend to keep their heads down when they start out.
Helmets should fit low without restricting the vision.
Our lightest helmets in the line and the first inmold half shell helmets every made when we launched them back in 2010. Our Snug Fit does not need a dial adjustment system. The Nipper helmets simply fit perfectly and, thanks to their low fit, also cover the child’s temples and the back of the head securely. The Mini Version protects heads from 48-51 cm head circumference. Maxi from 52-54 cm.
The Meta is a helmet model for life. We offer it in a total of 4 shell sizes and within the shell sizes there are also size adjustments. So you can start with it as a toddler and as your head grows, you will always find a suitable Meta helmet. Lightweight Inmold construction with integrated size adjustment system. Smallest size Meta starts at 48 cm head circumference
Once your kids are out riding trails they’ll need to change up their helmet. Firstly, ensure that the helmet has fine tune-ability with either removable pads or a dial system and once fitted the helmet should not move backwards or forwards, so it doesn’t distract them while riding and stays firm in bails – always good to remind them that the chin strap is not decoration but an essential part of the helmet. Also the harder they ride the hotter they will get, so ventilation is key to keeping them comfortable.
You can remove the chin bar on the Seek Youth FR helmet and convert it into a open-face helmet.
The Seek helmet is robust thanks to its hard shell construction and super ventilated with 17 large air vents. For kids we offer it from 52 cm head circumference (size XXS/XS).
As your child begins to push the envelope on progression and starts going bigger, faster and higher, you might want to consider a half-shell skate style lid design for more protective coverage.
A halfshell skate-style helmet like the Evolution Youth covers all sensible parts of the head.
The Evolution Youth features a tough ABS hardshell in a shell size optimised for youth and young adult riders. The low profile skate-style fit fully protects temples and nape.
When your young recruit moves into the park the frequency and severity of slams goes through the roof, so their helmet needs to be even more protective with a deeper fit for more coverage for the back and sides of their skull. A secure fit is imperative in these conditions and it’s also worth noting that they will be spotting landings so a clear field of vision is essential.
Lennox Zimmermann goes big on his bmx and needs to rely on a helmet that fits perfectly and protects all sides of his head. His choice: The Evolution Youth helmet.
Urban riding is perhaps the most frequent type of biking that your child will do, so comfort, lightness and perfect fit are paramount. We recommend that you choose a helmet with a deep fit and nice overall head coverage, as concrete and cars have big consequences for bikers. Also, on a more ephemeral note, always consider the aesthetic taste of your child, as they will be keener to wear a helmet if they think it is cool. We offer a great selection of colors and designs.
Let your kids cruise around town with friends and know they’re well protected with our Meta helmet.
The Nipper Maxi helmet is super light, safe and comfortable.
What protective gear should I buy for my biking kids?
Read on for our tips on finding the right protective gear to keep your kids safe while biking.
Find the right protective gear for biking kids
Kids have no mental brakes when it comes to biking as they haven’t yet earned the forethought that experience brings. It is therefore the responsibility of us parents to step in but with no hope of slowing their learning curve all we can do is make sure they’re padded up to keep them riding happy.
There are a few key questions that need to be asked when padding up your children and hopefully the following feature will give you the answers you need.
So here goes: Droppin’!
It’s more fun when the first tries don’t hurt.
What to consider when buying kids’ pads?
Protecting your child’s head is of paramount importance but if you really want to keep them safe then perhaps you should consider rigging them up with elbow, knee and shin protectors. This is certainly important if they’re keen to take their riding to the park.
A good secure fit is essential when buying knee and elbow pads as slippage is not only uncomfortable but also dangerous, as you don’t want pads sliding around in bails. If possible get your child to try on the pads for a guaranteed fit.
We recommend choosing ergonomically shaped pads that mimic the little ripper’s riding position and stay fitted around the joint.
Smart foam padding is also good as it molds to the kid’s form and is comfortable as well as protective.
Better to pad your kid’s knees and shins when they check out the local bike park.
Bike protection for mini kids / Starting out
At this stage of a grom’s biking history they are going to spend plenty of time rolling about on their pads, so hard capped protection is recommendable for durability. Kids’ sets are two a penny and can be cheap but remember you get what you pay for. Better quality pads are a fraction more expensive but the benefits of better fit, comfort and protection will ensure your loved one is keener to wear them.
Kids have less frustration and therefore more fun if they wear good protectors on their knees and elbows right from the start.
A high quality beginner’s set including knee pads, elbow pads and wristguards. State-of.the art manufacturing with flatlock seams for maximum durability.
A full set including knee pads, elbow pads and wristguard for a lower price. Same materials as Junior Set but a more simple sewing process in order to offer it for a more affordable price.
(Tip: Use Elbow pads as knee pads for very slight kids when starting out.)
Now your little one has ditched the balance bike and outriggers and pushing hard on the pedals of progression its time to get them into knee and shin combos and elbow pads. Again, we advise that these pads fit snuggly with no movement; are ventilated for all-day comfort; and provide good coverage to defend against bails and the sharp teeth of pedals. Pre-shaped pads with ride-savvy articulation are top of our recommendation list, as they deliver a secure fit with less slippage and more comfort, which equals more time in the saddle.
TSG kids protectors are perfectly adapted to the body dimensions of the little shredders.
Bike protection for medium to advanced kids pushing the limits
As your kids combine hard, fast riding with next-level tricks the risk of injury goes through the roof and the need to pad up with advanced protection is paramount. We recommend that knee and elbow pads provide good coverage and preferably are ergonomically pre-shaped for all-day comfort and wear-ability with a secure fit. On the legs there is an option to just protect the knee joint or go for full coverage with a knee and shin combo which can spare a rider some serious pedal scrapes or worse. The same goes for arms with combined elbow and forearm pads reducing the damage from slams and slides.
Once biking at this level it’s pointless telling your kids to “ride safe”. So if you can pad them up to the point where they’re protected then your job as parents is done and our purpose as a protection supplier to the action sports stars of the future is fulfilled. The safer we can make your kid’s journey from grom to pro the better.
Dermis Knee-shin combo and full elbow protection for trail shredders.
Softshell and really comfortable. The Dermis Sleeves are great for trail riding. They provide a good coverage and the ACF foam inside and the foam reliably absorbs the impact energy. Also a very good choice for bmx racing kids.
The Escape A is our dirt pad for young riders. It reliably cushions your youngster’s knees when his riding becomes more aggressive. Thick layer of ACF foam inside a slip-free neoprene body.
Maximum protection for kids knees with our Youth Kneeguard Escape A.

We are over the moon at signing the vert skate prodigy, Leonardo Vinicius, to the team. From now on he’ll be rocking TSG protection. Welcome on board Leo!
Leonardo may only be 11, and in the words of Jason Ellis pushing “three foot high”, but his mastery of vert and prodigious pop have certainly put the cat among the pigeons in the world of skate.
“To be that little and go that high with the body power he has … It’s incredible …” blurts Ellis on Hawk Vs Wolf. And he’s even blown Hawk’s mind, with enough airtime for double airwalks which Tony once thought just were the stuff of THPS.
Almost touching the ceiling of Burgos.
“In 5 years I’ve gone from riding a skate for the first time to competing with the best in the world,” says Leo proudly of his meteoric rise. Last year he was invited to the World Skate Games in Argentina and scored a 16th place; and in May 2023 Leo will compete for the first time at the XGames, in Chiba, Japan. “Since I began skating I always watched videos of XGames to motivate me,” Leo writes on his Instagram account. “I could never have imagined being there so soon. But I am and now I’m going to enjoy it.”
My goal is to set milestones in skateboarding
Leo is trying on the new TSG gear.
Welcome on board Leo
Hopefully he will be able to enjoy it that little bit more, now he’s ripping in a TSG Kraken Helmet, Force III A Kneepads, Elbowpads and Crash Pants. “TSG has been a very good discovery,” says Leonardo of our new partnership. “In a single brand, I’ve got all the protection I need.” TSG are very proud to offer an incredible range of helmets and protective gear for young skaters that are made from the same materials and deliver the same performance as the adult version.
Sport is a way of understanding life
We are thrilled to have Leo as a new member of the TSG team. He is a young talent with balance and dedication that is second to none. We are here to support him right at the beginning of his promising career and look forward to the journey together!
Mind-blowing air time!
According to Leonardo, his skating is mainly self-taught, although his dad assumed the role of coach pretty early on and moved the family to the neighbourhood of the Burgos vert ramp so Leo can train daily.
TSG has been a very good discovery. In a single brand, I’ve got all the protection I need
