Deacon has been out for a while from a knee injury, so lets take a look at his current out of commission whip! Full rundown and gallery after the jump.
MASTER COURTTEK FOR SALE NOW (KIND OF)
The new 2023 Trick Track frame of the year, the Master Courttek, officially went up for sale at 9am today. Bad news though: at the time of writing this post, the Andy Sparks blue colorway is all sold out, and the glow in the dark is sold out in Small and Large (medium still in stock though).
The good news? Since more of my signature colorway was produced as a whole, all sizes are currently still available! If you’re on the fence about snagging one, frames won’t be restocked for at least a couple years. Just something to think about.
Side note, 700c forks were restocked in chrome and black as well! Upgrade your Trick Track build or finish off your Courttek the right way, grab a fork here.
MASTER COURTTEK ON SALE TOMORROW @ 9AM PST
THE DAY OF RECKONING IS UPON US. The long long awaited Master Courttek frames finally go on sale TOMORROW at 9am PST. Set your alarm cause they will go quick.
You’ can’ll be able to find them on the Master website HERE

We let it be known that Antonio Wothe is one of our favorite riders ever. So naturally, we had to get him on the pod! Join us as we talk to him about antics, Long Beach, Fixie Factory, and much much more. Enjoy!
THROWBACK – TURF CHAIN GANG
Long ago (2016) there was a jam in Arizona called the Prickly Pear Jam hosted by Mike Schmitt / Turf. At the time, the FGFS community was nearing extinction. Since events at the time were rare (still are), the whole community made it a point to get out there and join. After the event, Turf released this edit called Chain Gang. This was all of the street riding that went down during that weekend. The video was deleted a while ago but recently recovered, so here it is for your viewing pleasure once again, featuring a lot of familiar faces including Mike Schmitt, Jackson Bradshaw, Jimmy Watcha, Congo, Matt Reyes, Matt Spencer, Miguel Zendejas, Elliott Milner, Gus Molina, myself, and many more.
