FOAD | STORM RIDER COMMENTARY
Chase and Jackson with FOAD Gang give us some entertaining insight on the Riders on the Storm video they released recently. Enjoyed this a lot!
Bombay Chakrist on Master Bike Co
Master just announced their newest international rider: Thailand’s own Bombay Chakrist! Bombay has been in the scene for a long time and has stuck with the sport even with the scene in Thailand dying down. His improvement has been great throughout the years and definitely deserves some recognition. Congrats to both parties!
Street MTB – Tom Kilcoyne for The Rise
The only street mountain biker I enjoy watching. The homie Tom kills it in his latest piece for The Rise. Style for miles and enough tech to last a lifetime.
FOAD AT WOODWARD
Super fun watch! FOAD boys getting some multi device shred in at the Utah Woodward location during simpler times.
FIXED GEAR HOLIDAY PRESENT GUIDE
Do you have a loved one who rides a fixed gear bike? Are you not sure what to buy for them this holiday? Or are you a fixed gear rider and people keep asking you what you want for the holidays and you just keep shrugging your shoulders saying “I dunno”? Well if you fall into either of these camps, you’ve come to the right place. If you’re a fixed gear rider, just send this article to the next person who asks.
Here I’ll be listing a grip of small fixed gear parts and accessories brands that you can support this holiday to get some stuff that your fixed gear loved one will ACTUALLY be stoked about, rather than that shirt you get them from Tilly’s every year that they pretend to be excited about.
INTRODUCING THE MASTERBLADE HIGH LOW FRAME
For those who don’t know, Kareem Shehab (owner of Master Bike Co) is also sick on the blades. I don’t know much about blading but he made it look fun as fuck. Makes me wanna try it out. Master just dropped some blade frames that you can pre order HERE!
INTRODUCING | SLOWWHEELZ
SLOWWHEELZ is a new fixed gear freestyle based apparel brand started by young tarck extraordinaire Guillermo Galindo and friends. I love seeing rider owned brands start within our community, especially when it’s done right like this. Memo made sure to represent minorities and compiled the team entirely of people of color too, you love to see it. They just dropped their first line of shirts and stickers and they’re almost already sold out, so hop on it while you can and be on the lookout for more stuff from them soon. SHOP HERE
SMC DISCORD LAUNCH
Ready for a new type of community? If you aren’t familiar with Discord, it’s basically a forum app but with more advanced features than your standard forum. We’re hoping to create a stronger community with the launch of this with categories to show off your build, ask about tricks, post your edits, and more! Any and all are welcome, so click HERE to join and come hang out with us!
Why is Trick Riding the Best | FOAD Gang
This made me shed an internal tear. Jackson put together this beautiful little short film about the mindset of trick riding. He put my (and probably many of our) thoughts into words and paired it with some really great looking footage. Definitely give this one a watch if you get a chance.
