Tempered Bikes recently released a flipbook showcasing some upcoming products. Definitely a high quality production with some really nice riding shots mixed in. Be sure to take an extra good look at the Anchor Down sprocket.

This past thursday I married my beautiful Margarita at the City Clerks Office in New York. It was a wonderful day and we were extremely lucky with the weather. Many thanks go out to NY based photographer Keith Romanowski who was kind enough to be a witness for the ceremony, and also spend the rest of the day with us shooting photos in Central Park.



Christiania Bowl

Here’s a quick edit from the infamous and oh-so-hard to ride bowl in Christiania, Copenhagen. This bowl is super tight and hard to ride, but it’s good fun and you can really tell who’s the local in this edit… riders featured are Travis Johnston, Niels Thanild, Bruno Hoffman and Ty Morrow. Edit by Dominik over at Woozy.

Going overseas

It will probably be a bit slow here the following 3 weeks. I’m going overseas to visit San Francisco, New York and finally El Paso.

Might get the chance to post some random things. We’ll see.

Later!


Equipment for Trails

Posted: October 16th, 2009 | Author: | Filed under: BMX, Product | Tags: , , | Comments Off

Not many companies make trails specific frames anymore, which is kind of a shame because everyone doesn’t want their seat in the tyre and a front triangle you can’t put your fist through.

FBM just released a flipbook showing their new frame, the Steadfast. Trails specific geo and design with a bit more mellow headtube angle at 74° and a rear end that’s longer than 13.75″ slammed.
Flipping through the flipbook I came to the conclusion that it looks flippin’ good.

Here are the top then posts of all time on this blog (or at least since I installed the plugin for stats about a year ago). It’s pretty interesting to see what draws people’s attention here. I think I have to post more bikechecks with Jesper Stern and do more product shots. Apparently people like the links and also my info page for some reason.

Trails in Finland

Just got this clip sent to me from my good friend Antti who runs the mailorder/webstore Signature BMX. The clip is of their teamrider Jukka Mäennenä who also rides for We The People. Filmed in only 90 minutes — he managed to throw down some good stunts in that short time.

8-bit trip

Sure is trippy to spend 1500 hours moving Lego® blocks around. Although I must say that judging by the end result, it was 1500 hours well spent. This ranks as one of the coolest videos I’ve ever seen. Ever.

Dishonour

Dishonour is an Adelaide based clothing brand that do tees, hoodies and hats. They’ve got a good thing going by only doing one single run of each print. Keeping it limited edition, I dig that. Their designs are fresh and well worth a look. I’ve taken the liberty of putting some examples below.

If you like what you see, hit them up on their Blog, Twitter, Myspace or Facebook pages.
