Edits from 2 places far apart.

Posted: January 11th, 2010 | Author: | Filed under: BMX, Video | Tags: , , , | Comments Off

Today I decided to post a couple of edits from countries far apart. The two first ones are by my buddies from my native land Sweden from a couple of local and semi-local indoor parks escaping the sub-zero conditions. The third one is from a winter escape back in 2006.

Then there’s also one from local ripper and FP crew member Lachy Swanton closer to my current home, Melbourne, Australia. Here we’re definitely not struggling with freezing conditions at the moment…

Blam! Blam! Edit:

Cooper Brownlee of Focalpoint Magazine has a new site up — One Love, One Life, which is a combined photo blog and portfolio. Good thing to have since photography is an integral part of his professional career. On the site there are photos not just of BMX, and the blog section tells you a little about each photo and the background for it. Interesting indeed!

Cooper also recently got a Shooter feature on the Dig BMX site. Check it out for some good words from one of the most BMX-dedicated people in the world.

Rainy day

Some of the Focalpoint guys avoided the rain yesterday by hitting up some of their undercover spots. Here’s the edit to show that they didn’t just sit on their asses like I did, although I did go shopping for some shoes, so I’m not entirely lazy.



Top Fives

Cooper put up a new “top fives” on the Focalpoint site this morning. This time it was my turn to talk about what I think are the top five product innovation over the past few years. Previous top fives are by Mike Davies who runs zombiebmx.com and Clint Millar fron Colony BMX Co.
