Jacob is part of our sMc family and one of the dudes I hang out and ride with the most. He’s one of the nicest people you’ll meet and also happens to shred on a bike. He just sized up to a medium Concept Assassin instead of a small and gave it a rad paint job. The bike is beyond dialed and rides really well. See after the jump for a rundown and more pictures.
As I addressed in the previous post, we went to a skatepark with Royal HC yesterday and snagged some clips. Keep in mind, I’ve never been too park-savvy. So I felt pretty accomplished with a few of these clips.
It’s been a while since I’ve met up with my buddy Christian. He had a rim to sell me, so it was a perfect opportunity to head up to LA and meet up with him at his local bike shop, Golden Saddle Cyclery, to buy a rim, shoot some video, and snag some photos of his sweet new paint job on a custom frame, dubbed, the “Toe-Breaker.” Of course I’m not as good at taking pictures as Prolly, but you get the idea. No doubt, this is a beautiful build. More photos after the jump.
It’s been a year since the teaser for this edit dropped. After hope was lost and we thought the project was abandoned, sure enough, here it is in all it’s glory. It’s been a real minute since anything from Blanco has dropped but he’s stayed stacking and stayed killing it. Long ices, clean bars, and buttery lines for days. This edit was really sick. Filmed really well too. First clip was too clean.
Just a couple clips outside The Workshop on Jacob’s Concept Assassin that I was having some fun on.
Just a shot with my cell phone riding in the CSULB parking lot a few days ago. Really feeling my Bombtrack Divide build right now. Paired with the Altar Burial Handlebars, the combo is perfect. Royal HC straps keeping my feet tied down and all coming together thanks to The Workshop bike shop in Long Beach.
Two videos released in the past couple days from the newly formed Two Strap Krew coming out of New York City. Great to see riding coming from there again.
The first is “Joe The Ripper” or Joseph Montano, and damn does the dude rip. Rail game on lock and steezy lines throughout. This edit was killer, can’t wait to see more.
And here’s a bike check from Zee Washington of his Concept Assassin. These frames always build up clean.
After a year of filming, parts for sMc’s FGFS video, “Young Guns”, are finally starting to wrap up. Other parts not pictured will include Grant Higgins, Calvin Gunt, Samuel Rodriguez, and potentially more. Stay tuned.
Marwin “Wizard” Ou was a force to be reckoned with in the early Long Beach FGFS scene (2008-2011). Unfortunately, his involvement with fixed gear is now minimal; this was just about the last edit he put out. His technicality on flat ground was unmatched, as shown in this edit. Or, as it used to be called, “Wizardry”.
