Bellyflop Competition
Hear that? That is the sound of pain. Oslo, Norway, is home to the official dødsing competition, more commonly known in English as bellyflopping. The goal of the sport is to curl into a ball a split second before hitting the water, saving the competitors a painful slap and scoring points with the judges. Judging by the footage, it's every bit as hard as it sounds.
We're Living in a Simulation

adidas Originals Samba
The adidas Originals Samba has earned its place as a timeless streetwear staple by staying true to the design that made it iconic. Born on the soccer field, the silhouette pairs a full-grain leather upper with gritty suede overlays and signature gold foil details for a look that feels both classic and contemporary.

Sushi Robot
It may be the future of sushi, but the future of good sushi? We're not so sure. Built by Kawasaki, this bot is more of a sushi assembly machine, stacking precut pieces of fish on formed rice. And not to mention that wasabi from a tube. Although this seems to be just the beginning of an animatronic chef, we don't think Jiro has anything to worry about anytime soon.
Evolution of Racing Helmets
Rule #1 of racing: Protect your dome. Keeping the grey matter inside the skull has become a top priority in racing, and the helmet has evolved to meet that challenge. From the early days when helmets were little more than scarves to keep out dust, dirt, and exhaust, to modern impact-resistant lids of Kevlar and carbon fiber, helmets serve both form and function.

Nike Air Force 1 Vibram
The Air Force 1 has spent more than four decades proving it belongs almost anywhere. Now Nike takes the iconic silhouette back to one of the ideas that helped shape it. Originally inspired in part by the Nike Approach hiking boot, Bruce Kilgore's legendary design returns with a rugged update featuring a durable textile upper and a Vibram outsole built to tackle terrain beyond the pavement. Nike Air cushioning preserves the everyday comfort that made the AF1 a cultural icon, while the trail-ready sole adds dependable traction for mountain hikes, weekend escapes, and everything in between. It is a fitting evolution for Nike's best-selling sneaker, reminding us that the Air Force 1 has always been built to explore beyond the court.
