Day three of the SMC 100 is here: ranks 90-81. I’ve been enjoying the dialogue surrounding all of these so keep the convos going on our IG!
Yes, the back end of the list is already so so so stacked, but rest assured, we will only continue to list heavier and heavier hitters. I think we forget how many killer riders have graced our scene with their presence over the years.
Welcome to the first day of the SMC 100! In no particular order, we’re kicking off the list with honorable mentions – the folks that were just shy of that top 100 but absolutely needed a little shoutout. Click into post for the reveal and write-ups!
Andy Sparks visited in Fukuoka city Japan in July. I’m sending some picture of Andy and Shun. Group picture as well. It’s rainy season here in Japan. But I tried street sesh as much we can. You can see Andy’s bike got so rusty. So great to see you again, ANDY!!!! Welcome back to Japan!!!!
Bigfoot has been absolutely ON IT with the events and really putting it on for the scene! Coming up next weekend on the 19th is the Bigfoot Waterfront Stunt jam going down at the famous 3rd and army SF spot. I may or may not see y’all there 👀
We’re announcing the official scores from the Samurai Trick Comp Vol.2. Judges: KOZO, ANDY SPARKS and BONJU.
A total of 14 competitors entered the comp, divided into PRO and AM divisions. Qualifiers and finals were originally planned, but rain just before the event led to the cancellation of the qualifiers, so only the finals were held. In the AM division, two competitors rode at the same time, while PRO competitors rode individually. Each competitor completed two 90-second runs. Each run was scored out of 60 points by three judges, and their scores were averaged to determine the run score. The higher of the two run scores counted as the competitor’s final score.
I visited him in Seattle in October 2010. I thought I lost these photos on my old hard drive, but recently I found some of them. This trip is one of the greatest memories of my life because it was my first time visiting a local scene abroad and meeting local riders there. Looking back now, I realize that this trip truly became part of my roots.
Slovak boy and Masterbike Co. teammate Jakub Bruch visited me last August. Here are some pictures from a little sesh we had in my hood. I guess he was the first person to ride this spot on a fixed gear, even though it was already well known among BMX riders.
COURT IS IN SESSION. New CSK jam from Jacob Ruff and Ruff associates for vertical viewing pleasure (I still enjoyed watching on desktop though). So many nifty shifty tight lines in here, Jacob has become an expert at this park.
Additionally, Jacob has released brand new CSK hats… making these the first CSK clothing product to drop in many many years!
