Miguel Zendejas | Tooth Over
We’ve been filming at this insanely fun ledge spot lately (that might look familiar from the recently dropped OSS On Everything Edits if you watch BMX) and Miguel has been dropping hammers, surprise surprise. Here’s a shot I got of him in between getting clips of a tooth over on this whole ledge. Watch out for the clips here in his upcoming edit!
Also if you haven’t, check out his video bike check we dropped last Sunday here.
Johnathan Ball | AZ 360
Love this shot Matt Spencer got of myself launching this 360 out in AZ last year for the Arizona Iced Out Trip. Even though it was into grass, it was still a pretty decent drop and pretty scary. Check the writeup on Wolf Drawn.
Christian Alivera | Suicide No Hander
Riding Alondra I got this quick shot of 700c Torrance local Christian Alivera blasting this Suicide No Hander with his arms straight back. Follow him on insta @alivera_lotion for more clips.
IsThisIt Webstore
Richerd Gutierrez opened up a little webstore with some used FGFS rear hubs up for sale. If you need some hubs for the cheap check it out here.
Royal HC Products Now Available Through SMC!
SMC is now the official and only Royal HC distributor. On our webstore we have available Royal HC Straps with new and improved designs and sleek Royal HC wallets.
Straps have mostly the same design as the Royal straps everyone knows and loves with a few improvements including overall lighter weight, stronger and lighter tubular webbing, more stitching in areas prone to wear and tear, and stronger velcro across the entire surface of the strap. Snag em here!
Anthem Bike Co. 2016 Comply & FMS Framesets
Anthem sent over some of the first pictures of their new 2016 Frames including the FGFS specific “Comply” frame, and their new 26″ BMX frame titled the “FMS” (110mm rear spacing). The new models now include a top tube gusset, chainstay grind plates, and spacing for 2.5 tires as well as the same 8mm thick dropouts that accommodate up to 42mm diameter pegs. The fork will be a 405mm a2c with a 20mm rake. No details on the geometry of these frames yet, but they look killer. Stay tuned for more info and follow @anthembikeco on the gram.
2016 Comply
Michael Penrose | Pole Hop
Myself and Penrose went out to film some street yesterday and we both ended up getting pretty hurt. We still managed to snag a few clips though including this rad pole jam hop from Penrose aka @therealbobbyhill . We got to this spot and we discovered that the main part of the spot is now capped. Penrose eyed up this weird bump jump over a pole jam though and sent it after a few goes. Watch out for the clip in his upcoming web edit we’re working on.
Congo | Bronco
Wolf Drawn just posted up this picture of Congo doing his 2010 signature trick.
