Some real sick riding from what appears to be Michael’s first edit. Last trick was real impressive, can’t wait to see more.

Antonyo Wothe | Double Peg by Phil Arellano
Phil Arellano recently snapped this sick shot of Antonyo double pegging this handrail. Always clean shots coming from Phil, and great to see Tone on the bike again.

Cole Ruffing 2013 Part 1.
As soon as I saw Cole put out an edit I knew I was going to love it. Cole has such a unique style and approach to spots, and is always doing things I don’t see many people mess with at all like the footjam 180 off a ledge. So sick. Great to see he’s being staying on top of his riding. Apparently there is going to be another part too. So stoked for that. By the way, Cole has the sweetest looking half cab bars in the game. You rule Cole, I love you. Stop being so sad.

Peter Chen’s Farewell.
Another rider down and out. Matt Reyes said it perfectly, I’m definitely feeling “sufficiently bummed” that this dude is quitting. Peter had tons of potential. Some real nutty clips in here, good bag of tricks too. Half cab off the stairs was legit, check it out. 😦
Quick Clip – Christian Ustarroz.
Here’s another quick clip from Royal HC. This one is LA local Christian Ustarroz pulling a clean and stylish footplant 180. Sick!
Marco Marquez | Barspin over Calin by Michael Guntetong
Marco has been gone for a minute, but with a new bike setup he’s finally stoked on, he’s been riding more than ever. Here’s a sweet flick of our dude barspinning over Calin. Shot by Michael Guntetong.

BHSK | FGFS Rant | WHY IT’S NOT WORKING.
A very interesting and accurate rant just got upped by Jmik on Bomb Hills Speed Kills. Some very good points were brought up about the support this sport is receiving and how little riders give back to the sport, along with the mentality that if you can do a 360 you deserve to have everything handed to you, but that isn’t how it works. In the comments section, Jackson Bradshaw had some extremely good points as well. I suggest you read it here. Thanks for the shoutout Jackoff.
In conclusion, if we don’t give back to this sport, and if we aren’t passionate about this sport we’ve contributed so hard to make a legitimate thing, it is going to die. Riders are dropping like flies. It’s up to us to keep this sport alive. This sport is important to a lot of people, including myself. If it dies, I know I’ll still be riding, it would just be nice to keep having people to ride with.
Quick Clip – Miguel Zendejas
Royal HC sums Miguel up perfectly, “Miguel has been flying under the radar for some time now but this guy is no joke. He has a bag of tricks that hardly anyone has seen and it’s quite a shame.”
We are also working with Miguel to have a part in Young Guns, so be stoked for that. Miguel is easily one of the most underrated riders in FGFS.
