Shop Visit | The Workshop in Long Beach

As I’ve started attending Cal State Long Beach this school year, trips to my favorite shop, The Workshop, have been more frequent. The shop is situated in the tight knit community of Bixby Knolls, one of the nicer areas of Long Beach.

Half Assed | Vol. 7

The Half-Assed Series is back, in HD, and with the Altar boys! Which also happens to include two sMc members, Robert Rice and myself. Phil did a real good job at cutting this one together, and for being half-assed, the clips are way killer. But with a lineup like this, it’s hard not to make a sick video. It’s been a while since footage of Gus has surfaced, but he’s still at it and killing it harder than ever.  Don’t forget to swoop some Burial Bars!

Johnathan Ball | Wallride Barspin

Phil came down to my area and wanted to shoot some photos. So I took him my go-to spot, the Santa Ana Riverbed. A five minute ride from my house and perfect banks make it an ideal spot to practice tricks. After brushing glass out of the way and hauling Phil’s camera equipment down the steep banks, Phil got this sick shot. But when aren’t his shots sick?

After vigorously testing my pair for 6 months, taking them down stairs, drops, rails, and bails, the Burial bars held true to their shape without the slightest of bends or breaks. Altar has truly managed to make the toughest riser handlebars on the market. Here’s what they had to say:

“With over 8 months of testing by our pro team consisting of Johnathan Ball, Jonathan Davis, and Gus Molina, these are tried and true to be the most rugged and strongest 1 piece handlebar on the market.”

ALTAR TRIBE | Burial Bar Update.

Get stoked, cause the ALTAR TRIBE Burial Bars are on their way to heat treating and powder coating. After 9 months of testing (and counting) from 4 different riders, they have proven to be the strongest riser bars ever produced, with none of them bending or breaking in the slightest bit. 4 Inch rise, .083 tubing wall thickness. If you like riser bars but couldn’t find a pair that are strong enough, these are the bars for you. Check back here to stay updated, or follow @altar_tribe on Instagram for the latest updates.
