Pedro Oliveira & His 24″ Build

Pedro and Duarte from Portugal met up with us when we went to Barcelona in January earlier this year and really helped us out with finding spots and talking to locals. The dude is awesome and his passion for FGFS gets me stoked to ride. The dude is always hungry for clips, and seeing him get a custom frame from Nem Pro is well deserved. Be on the lookout for his clips when the Barcelona clips come out. But for now, I took some shots of him and his bike during the golden hour. Even though it’s a 24″, the frame geometry makes it ride like a 26″ build. It looks cool too, more photos after the jump!

Superbowl Splash 2016

Here’s a nice video Adam Wells put together of the ender to the Wheel Talk Superbowl Sunday video of Josh Silva’s backflip off the dock. This video shows the process leading up to it and how they got him out of the water. Ballsy as fuck. That water had to be absolutely freezing, you’re a mad man Josh!

MIKE SCHMITT | TWILIGHT ZONA

Mike Schmitt‘s newest edit is so fucking good. He gave me a little sneak peak a couple days ago and I was instantly stoked on it before even seeing it. Mike is one of the most exciting dudes to watch on a bike cause you never know what he’s gonna do while running up to a setup. The 1 hand x-up sub was definitely one of those cases. That was the last thing I expected to see and it’s one of my favorite clips in this edit. Mike’s overall riding is looking so dialed these days and it’s great to see him taking advantage of all the insane Arizona spots. Really feeling the way this was put together too. Mike always comes through with sick editing. DON’T SLEEP ON THIS ONE!!
