Throwback: sMc Photos.

So I was going through old photos and I came by a lot of cool old photos of myself and the sMc crew that nobody really saw. Crazy to see how much things have changed in over a year. Riders here include Alec Aranowitz, Myself, Christian Meldrum, Gunnar Johnson, Chris Ruelas, Anthony Sanchez, Ryan Schuk, and Junho Park.

Can’t Fool The Youth – Josh Boothby.

Boothby’s part in Can’t Fool The Youth is so sick. Can’t wait for the second issue.

Two for Tuesday.

Here’s two songs that really pump me up to go ride.

The first one I first heard in the video Mashafix put out for the FF power hour 6.66. Gets me pumped to ride every time. Joe and Antonyo’s riding alone gets me stoked to get out and try new stuff.

The second one was on Wonka’s Death Pedal 2 part. I swear I used to watch that DVD over and over when I first got it! This song reminds me of that part and still always gets me amped to ride.

Another song came on as I was typing this up, so lets make this Three for Tuesday. Matt Spencer’s Autumn edit was one of the first freestyle videos I ever watched as I was moving along in my fixed gear career. I thought it was the most insane thing ever and I set off determined to get a fixed gear freestyle bike, dreaming I could be as good as Matt, haha. So this song always reminds me of the golden days of fgfs. WOLFDRAWN

JBall: Barspin 13.

Here’s a shot Ryan Schuk got of me barspinning the Uni 13 from my Ninjacats edit.

Zach Babinski: Barspin.

Here’s a real sick shot Julian Arteaga got of local rider Zach Babinski. Expect more from him in the future!

Ninjacats: JBall.

Here’s my welcome to Ninjacats part. Been working on this for a while so I hope everyone likes it. So stoked to be part of the Ninjacats fam!

More Richie Jackson.

Some brand new Richie Jackson awesomeness.

Wheel Talk 2012 Extras.

Wheel Talk just cleaned out their footage and dropped some extras for the new year. The song fits the riding perfectly, and for scraps, these are killer. Great lifestyle clips and great editing always comes with the Matt Reyes package too.
