Gallery of SMC 8 day 2 Trick Track day is here! Suzie did such a great job with these pics, so make sure you thank her! (Full gallery after the jump)
That just about wraps up all the SMC content we had! Last things to look forward to are the official scores from both comps, phone pic gallery, and a Privileged Bread episode.
All of the Courttek V2 riders and colorways are officially revealed. The worldwide lineup is heavy with well deserving names, including Devan Gallagher, Satoshi Hashimoto, Max Corcoran, Jakub Bruch, and myself. not only are the colorways themselves cool, but I love seeing how each person built their bike and the personality that goes into every bike and portrait. Full gallery with bike and riding shots after the jump!
Courttek V2’s are still in pre-order, but not for much longer. Grab one on the Master site HERE before you’ll never be able to again!
THE DAY HAS COME. The long awaited Master Courttek V2 is here for pre order! Along with this news and 6 colorways we’re introduced to the brand new Master 2025 Trick Track team lineup which includes:
“The wait is over. The Master Bike Co Courttek is back! For the V2 we have reinforced the seat tube cutout, changed to integrated headset and have added 2 new sizes to the lineup (size 48 and 58). Additionally, the frameset can be purchased in brakeless or v-brake configurations. Frames now come with matching 700c chopstick forks as well as headset and seatpost collars included. Our team riders put in countless hours riding and tweaking our factory samples to perfect the frame’s geometry and durability in order to create the ultimate tricktrack riding experience.
Every element of the frame has been carefully crafted with intention and precision. The Courttek frame can accommodate tires up to 45c+ with ample barspin clearance, and it features one of the shortest rear ends on the market, ensuring exceptional maneuverability and control. While the Courttek’s styling and design pay homage to the classic track frames of the past, it has been expertly engineered to address the shortcomings and design flaws of earlier bike models.
From the materials used to the carefully designed geometry, every aspect of the Courttek frame has been selected and crafted with the rider’s experience in mind. The result is a highly responsive and versatile frame that is perfect for riders who demand the best in both performance and style.
700c Wheel size, Full Heat Treated Chromoly, 10mm (3/8”) dropouts, 120mm rear hub spacing, English threaded bb, 27.2 Seatpost, Includes Master 700c Chopstick fork, Includes Master seat post clamp and integrated headset
It will take roughly 3 months from the close of the preorder to manufacture and ship these bikes. Each frameset will ship individually so you will not see any cost savings for shipping by combining orders. Preorder will be open from Sunday Sept 14- Sept 28.”
Alongside the 5 signature colors is a special edition woodland camo colorway, making for 6 colors total in this drop. Once this pre-order is done you will not be able to get a Courttek V2, so now is your only time! Snag one here!
The final week of SMCGR 2025 has finally arrived! Today we reveal our picks for the top 10 Men’s Trick Track riders in the world for the 2024 year. Full rider cards in the post!
In Den Haag we were taken to this insane arch. Look how tiny them boys look compared to it while airing it. Absolute unit of a structure that I wanted no part of. Ritchie and Jakub were getting pretty high up there, it was nuts. Great group of dudes on this sesh!
While I’m pumping away at Suck My Comp 7 recap videos, here are some cool photos from a really nice under bridge session while we were out in Den Haag featuring Jakub, Matt, Ismael, Ritchie, and friends! Click into post for full set.
Olvotricks contest just went down in France after the Olvoween alleycat and there were some shredders throwing down! Some new names now on my radar and some familiar ones holding it down. Some highlights for me include Vitto’s fish n chip combo at 6:28, Lyonzon’s smooth style, and Mark’s aggressive consistency. I think Mark is now one of my favorite Trick Track riders, especially after meeting him and riding with him in the Netherlands. Oh and of course Jakub does his usual slaying. Fun stuff with some great energy!
While in Netherlands, we were taken to this massive halfpipe (as seen in multiple videos by now). The session was nuts and everyone was throwing down. Specifically, Jakub and Youri were getting UP THERE! Here’s some shots from the sesh:
