Kerry Kimura On the One Edit

New piece from 84Kick is really cool. I haven’t heard the name Kerry Kimura much, and this surprises me given his style and abilities. He’s smooth, stylish, and creative. Kerry clearly has a Teppei influence (not mad at all about it) cause this dude is NICE with the skids. Overall, this was just a super refreshing watch and that leg over skid 180 at the end was SO DIALED!

GarageBoys 6 – LDN PAR AMS BCN

Okay so Crispyn just casually dropped a whole ass movie. WOW. This video truly encapsulates everything I love about traveling and riding bikes with your friends. My mans traveled all over Europe to dial this video in and squeezed just about every star player on that side of the world into this jawn. We’ve got antics, characters, fantastic riding, unique spots and skateparks, and good filming. The entire video is dripping with personality and this is the shit I live for that pumps me up. I want to go ride my bike YESTERDAY after watching this. This isn’t a video, it’s an experience. Great fucking job lads.

Introducing – THE LOCKUP

Our good friends at Slow Spin Society unveiled a brand new online bike gallery called The Lockup! If you remember the days of velospace where people from across the globe would upload their cool Fixed Gear builds for all to see, this project is meant to replace that void.

The instructions are simple, just visit this page and follow the instructions from there. Let’s flood the site with some cool FGFS builds!

Barcelona Flow – Jakub + Diego

This video made me wanna RIDE. Jakub aka Fixie Transformer aka French Fixedgear Federation aka #1 Trick Track rider in the world made his way to Barcelona to meetup with the Ephemeral Gang and the results are some A++ content. Jakub riding spots is a thing of beauty and Diego is getting really comfortable on the 26″ bike, which makes me really happy to see. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE watching him ride the Bombtrack track bike (which he does for a bit in this video), but there’s only so much you can do on flat ground. The 26″ is really elevating his riding as a whole and he’s now becoming a master of both.

Some moments that really stuck out for me were 2:58 (beautiful use of a flat rail), 4:25 (great spot usage and display of bike control), and 4:44 (incredible spot usage and creativity). I can’t wait to go on a trip and ride with my friends soon, this video makes me wanna go NOW.

RESIST JBALL SIGNATURE “JAB” FORK OUT NOW!

Cats out of the bag! My Resist JAB 700c fork is out now. These utensils have been in the works for months now and I’m really happy with the way they turned out.
