Johnathan Ball | Tree Threader Bar

Here’s a shot of myself that Matt at Wolf Drawn just posted up from last year’s trip to Arizona. The second picture is me eating shit somehow missing my hand on the bar, then went back for it and nailed it. The drop was deceivingly big.

Michael Penrose | Welcome To Altar

Penrose has been putting in some serious work on his bike lately. Within the last year he’s rapidly progressed and now has his first sponsor, Altar Tribe. Penrose has a real flowy style and makes just about everything he does look like butter. He put in a good amount of time filming for this edit and we’re both stoked on how it turned out. We filmed this over the last few months and planned on getting more, but was cut short due to filmer injuries. We still got enough footage to put an edit out though with the help of Matt, Elliott, and Corey filming some additional clips. So here’s Penrose’s Welcome To Altar edit, enjoy. Shout out to slum for showing me the song.
