Samuel Rodriguez & His Destroy Unicorn Killer

Samuel Rodriguez went MIA for a little bit and we didn’t ride with him for a good year at least cause he was busy with other stuff. Luckily for us, he’s been back and fucking killing it under the radar. He got hold of a Destroy Unicorn Killer recently after being on an Unknown V3 for god knows how long. Here’s his new build though and it looks sick as fuck.

Also, we’ve been filming an edit for him and it’s already got some fire tricks. Look out for that in the future

Jonathan Thompson & His Concept Assassin

A few weeks ago was the first time I met LA local shredder Jonathan Thompson. Needless to say, the dude fucking kills it, and his riding never sees the light of day. We filmed a few clips that will be featured in the new Chop Em’ Down Films full length FGFS DVD coming out within the next few months. Here’s some shots of him and his Concept build. Follow him on instagram @thompson___ .

Cole Ruffing & His LDG Proto

Here’s a few shots of SMC fam Cole Ruffing‘s current LDG Proto build. Even though this frame never came in to production, it’s still a really clean build with good geo. Can never go wrong with a murdered out whip. Like his shirt? Grab it here. Like his beanie? Snag it here!
