Matt Spencer just released the official trailer for the Stay Strapped DVD. This trailer gets me beyond hyped to buy and watch this DVD. Very professional appearance and the riding is gonna be insane. You don’t wanna sleep on this. Order one here.

THAILAND TAKEOVER | #2
David Jay / Pau Hana | Hawaiian Shred
Some real style coming from Hawaii. Backwards wheelies dialed and rad wild sliders like before.
Elliott & Matt In Vegas | By Phil Arellano
Some really nice shots of Matt and Elliott just went up on the Locked Cog site of their little filming excursion to Vegas. Looks like they got some good stuff done and had a blast in the heat. Head over there for the full recap and more photos. And Phil also got a shot of Elliott’s new prototype whip from Bombtrack. Gonna be a killer frame.
TURF BIKES | WORD IS BOND
One of the sickest things to date in FGFS. If you’ve been living under a rock and haven’t heard of it, this is Turf’s video that has been in the works for quite a while, and a way to introduce their new line of products. Their shop is now open including the Sling Shot Stem, and Bar Ends. Check em out and watch this video a few times. Schmitt’s part was my personal favorite and everybody else had some really amazing stuff as well. This was worth the wait. You can always expect quality production coming from Wheel Talk. SO sick. I’ll let the video do the rest of the talking, cause there are about a thousand more things I can point out that are sick.
FF Power Hour 11
The FF Power Hour series is back featuring Joe Mckeag, Antonyo Wothe, Michael Penrose, Corey San Agustin, and myself. Short and sweet! Joe’s inward footplant 180 was so wild.
Devon Lawson In Thailand
After not seeing the dude for about a year it was good to see Devon and catch up. One of the sharpest dudes on and off a bike. Here’s some portrait photos I shot while we were out riding street plus a suicide no-hander that Sellers took. Oh, and scope the sMc sticker on his down tube. Stoked on that. More photos after the jump.
Lookback | FOAD x Still Pour In SF
Ride + Style does a great job at uniting fixed gear riders from across the globe. This FOAD and Still Pour collab video from last year’s event is the epitome of the Red Bull weekend: riding bikes with your buds. Can’t wait to see all these dudes again in less than a month.
THAILAND TAKEOVER | #1
I documented the majority of my experience in Bangkok, Thailand and will be releasing the pictures in segments with a combination of riding, lifestyle, and other random shit off both my DSLR and phone camera. It was an amazing experience with the best dudes. The differences in culture, food, weather, and everything in between were almost polar opposites compared to the states. Overall, the people are nicer, the weather is hotter, everything is cheaper, and the riding is intense. All the people riding out there have so much passion and so much fun with it. Very thankful to have taken part in the scene. This wouldn’t have been possible without Bombtrack Bicycle Co., Zane Meyer, and Petch. Other thanks to Dew, Jaoa, Nat, JD, and everybody else who made sure we didn’t kill ourselves out there. THANK YOU THAILAND!
Cole Ruffing | 1 Spot 2 Days
Some sick jibby stuff from Cole. Real technical stuff here that you have to look at closely to see what’s really going on. Day two clips are banger. Footjam nollie 3 is crazy sick. Cole is one of my favorite dudes to watch and never ceases to disappoint. Check it out.
