Ismael recently hosted the “Bordeaux Jam 2023” and while turnout was relatively quiet, it looked like a fun time so I’d call that a success. They even got Australia’s Max Corcoran to join the fun! Ismael and others are doing good work to try to build up the scene out there, you love to see it. More and more events have been popping up on the low. We just had this one, Ritchie is throwing one over summer in Holland, there’s one going down in Sacramento in July, and of course we’ll be hosting one towards the end of the year. Exciting times!

Max Corcoran – Need for Spin
Max out of Australia recently went on a huge Euro tour and met up with France’s own El Fakijoe. As we know, Antoine is nice with a camera so he shot this nice long piece with Max. Some killer mixed with some artsy, overall done really well. Shows some personality from Max that Instagram lacks. Important to note that Max is entirely on other people’s bikes for this video and still handles business. Beautiful shots and riding, take a look.
Ismael – 12/01/2023
Ismael out of France just tossed together some solid clips for his Youtube. Ender caught me super off guard, so good!
Beautiful Bike Check – Ismael’s Leader Shadow
El Fakijoe – Paris See You Soon
Fakijoe out of France has been on the up and up lately pumping out all sorts of delicious trick track content. While the camera work had me feeling a little nauseous, the riding and the edit are pretty good. He’s got great style so that’s a great place to start, it’s only up from here. Definitely worth a look.
Romain’s BB17 Serpent 29er.
Saw Romain’s build on Facebook and had to post it. Super clean BB17 29er. 700c isn’t quite dead yet.
