Aussie Boys – Summer With A Chance Of Fixie

Highly entertaining c o n t e n t. Our boy Max got himself a dad cam recently so here’s the first result of that purchase. This is some high level fixie entertainment and it only makes me more excited for future dad cam videos to come. Praise fixie jesus for bringing us content not filmed on an iphone 🙏

JOHNATHAN BALL – WANING 2024

Whats up. It’s been a long time coming. I premiered a nearly finished version of this video 6 months ago at Suck My Comp 6, so I”m a bit bummed it took this long to round out.

Overall though, I’m pretty happy with how this one turned out. Web edits in FGFS are rare these days, so I’m satisfied that I’m able to keep up a roughly once a year cadence. A lot of the clips took a long time, and a lot of clips were filmed during periods where I haven’t been riding my bike as much as I would’ve liked, so there was a lot of de-rusting going on. That being said though, there’s some tricks I’m really proud of throughout this one. Even though the ending tricks were a little lighter than I’m used to for myself, injuries plagued the filming of this and I decided to cut my losses and finish it off with what I had. It’s nearly 6 minutes of footage anyways, so I can’t complain too much.

I’ve already begun filming for a new project that I can’t talk about yet. So even though this video’s theme is all about sunsetting, I’m not done just yet. Anyways, I really hope you enjoy it and leave a comment if you did. Big thanks to all my friends who held a camera for me throughout.

Jacob Ruff – Putting The Sleeper To Rest

The Ruff Sleeper is no more. Ruff Bike Co. head honcho Jacob Ruff gives us a rundown on his final Sleeper build. Although he’s currently on a different, new bike (new name is set, but confidential), it’s still worth giving the rundown on his previous build cause it was a good one. Full gallery, rundown, and words from Jacob after the jump!
