Basketball in Movies – Part 5: “Teen Wolf” (1985)

This one is tricky, because the movie has (almost) become iconic with time. How can you hate on a walkman-wearing, air-guitar-playing wolf, who would later go on to be diagnosed with Parkinson’s. Michael J. Fox’ on-court stunt-double has game but should have been included in the editing too. Watch our favorite wtf-moment in this short [...]

Basketball in Movies – Part 4: “American History X” (1998)

This one is pretty easy to sum up. Great movie – dope cinematography – corny basketball. Edward Norton is a great actor but his game looks awkward, like he took some last minute lessons to prep for this role. “Derek Vinyard’s” game winning dunk at Venice Beach is about as realistic as a skinhead ballplayer. [...]

Basketball in Movies – Part 3: “Basketball Diaries” (1995)

A lot of hoops in this one. The most memorable scene is surely the final game of the St. Vitus Cardinals in which a young (and super skinny) Leo Di Caprio and his sidekick Marky Mark take the court high as kites. The results are airball-free-throws, ridiculous turnovers and non-stop vertigo. If you haven’t seen [...]

Basketball in Movies – Part 2: “Along Came Poly” (2004)

Maybe the funniest basketball movie scene ever. Ben Stiller’s overconfident buddy (Seymour Hoffmann) clanks every throw hard off the backboard and continues to feel like the man. Everyone of us knows at least one of those dudes. Or how Stiller has to guard the sweaty hairy fat guy with goggles and gets his mouth rubbed [...]

In the Press: Another Africa

Another Africa is a platform focussed on the inspirational side of the continent not the negativity that is portrayed all to often. Therefore they shed some light on projects that emphasize creativity and dialogue of cultures, like the *folorunsho x K1X “Batik DCAC” collaboration with the Lion Base crew from Freetown, Sierra Leone. We truly [...]

Park Authority – The Tournament Video

The inaugural “K1X Park Authority” tournament was held two weeks ago at our notorious home-court, dubbed “Pina” in Munich’s (Germany) museum district. Ten teams made up of local ballers, heads and influencers took it to each other under the blazing sun. BobMoses All-Stars, Kickz.com, Nike, Distorted People, Goodbois, Massman Park, K1X, Anderer Crew, H.E.A.R.T. & [...]

Basketball in Movies – Part 1: “One flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest” (1975)

These guys can’t play a lick. But you gotta respect the fact that Jack Nicholson and co. kept it real by not even pretending to have any sort of game. That in itself makes this b-ball scene genuinely good. Nothing worse than a fake alley-oop by a midget movie star. MVP: “Chief” Stay tuned for [...]
