FOAD – NOWHERE FAST, SOMEWHERE SLOW OUT NOW

After what feels like an eternity since it’s initial previewing at SMC 7, Jackson has finally finished this masterpiece that is Nowhere Fast, Somewhere Slow. I’m glad Jackson took his time with this though. It’s nearly an entirely different video from it’s initial version and I think we’ve got an instant classic on our hands.

The talent in this is really fun. We’ve got Jackson, Chase, Evan, Ramona, Macee, Parker, and other friends that we all either know and love or are learning about for the first time. We’ve got a combination of street track riding, crit racing, and insanely high level Trick Track tricks from Jackson and Chase.

All this footage is mixed and matched in such a fun way too. I think Jackson pushed some barriers in editing style and really went for something different. It’s impressive both on a creative level and a technical level and kept my eyes glued the whole time.

This will be on repeat for a while for me. Absolutely crushed it Jackson + gang!

Skream – The Long Way To No Where

Although I think that saying “The rider who redefines what skidding means” is an exaggeration, Kirby is definitely one of the few track riders I enjoy watching these days. He’s aggressive, fast, chooses good moments to skid, and looks good on a track bike. He’s paired up with Skream now so naturally they had to make him a cool aesthetic video of him ripping up paris.

El Toro Barspin RAWS

With the Joslin tre flip circulating and buzzing, this is my attempt to capitalize on the topic. I’ve never actually posted the straight up raws for this day (aside from patreon). There isn’t much in terms of b-roll or attempts because this was the singular send that happened on the day. Shoutout Corey and Elliott for capturing the moment!

FIXED GEAR HOLIDAY PRESENT GUIDE

Do you have a loved one who rides a fixed gear bike? Are you not sure what to buy for them this holiday?

Here I’ll be listing a grip of small fixed gear parts and accessories brands that you can support this holiday to get some stuff that your fixed gear loved one will ACTUALLY be stoked about, rather than that shirt you get them from Tilly’s every year that they pretend to be excited about.
