Lookback: Johnathan Ball in LA.

Figured this video would be appropriate on a throwback thursday. Can’t believe this is almost a year and a half old. Funny story about that last clip actually, the 360 was during the day, and the 180 bar was at night. At that time, that was the biggest 180 bar I’ve ever done, but I had to do it twice. I landed the 180 bar during the day, then reviewing the footage later that day, I deleted the clip on accident. Then the whole crew mobbed to the spot to get it again. After 180ing the stairs twice without throwing the bars, security came and kicked us out, and on that third try as we were getting kicked out, I threw the bars and landed it. Talk about luck.

Finn Zygowski: Last Edit.

Hate to see Finn go. FInn is the mastermind behind Great White North and has provided Canadian FGFS coverage for years. He say’s he’ll still be around, just not so much riding anymore due to an injury. This edit is pretty sweet. 29er pegless steez all day. Slider at 1:30 was way sick. Good luck to your BMX pursuit my dude!
