Afternoon Sesh With Joe Mckeag, Corey San Agustin, and Michael Penrose

Last week Joe Mckeag, Michael Penrose, Corey San Agustin, and Myself went cruising around Long Beach looking for something to hit. We settled at Long Beach City College, providing some ledges and things to practice hopping over, so I decided to take out my camera and shoot some flicks. The first one of Joe is my favorite, check out that top tube right underneath his knee cap. The hop was nothing short of huge. Corey also got some rail hop practice in, stepping out of his comfort zone and hopping some decent sized rails and caution tape. Penrose has also been killing it lately, progressing so much in the past few months and manning up to hit a rail.

I’d also like to take this post to announce that Joe Mckeag is now officially back on LDG, and they have plenty of new legit things in the works.

Tyler Nakamoto | Cookie Crumbs V1

It’s been a real long time since we’ve seen any content from Tyler Nakamoto, but it look like he’s been staying at it. Judging by the “V1” title, there will be more of these to come. Definitely looking forward to that. Flat double bar was crazy.

Forest Parker | 2012-13 Scraps

It’s been forever since we’ve seen anything from Forest, but every time he drops something, it’s pure fire. Hell, even his two year old scraps are killer! He’s easily one of the most stylish dudes on and off a bike. So fluent, so snappy, so much bike control. Worth the watch for sure. I really hope he has something in the works though, it’s been too long since we’ve seen a stacked Forest edit.

EDIT: Just realized I said a lot of the same stuff Jmik over at BHSK said. Check out his blog for tons of original content and more than just FGFS stuff.

Jakob Santos | FIXED AMERICA TOUR

It’s been a year and a half since Jake took a tour around a few states for the Fixed America Tour Vol. 1; after having trouble finding somebody to edit the footage, he came to me to get it done. I lagged on it for a while and now finally got it finished, so here it is, a year and a half later, and still with killer footage. Jakob and homies killed spots all over the U.S. Hopefully, there will be a second edition coming soon. Jake has also been filming for a welcome to SKYLMT video part, keep your eyes peeled for that.

Jakob Santos: Spike Parts.

Check out this part I made for Jake welcoming him to SPIKE. He kills it and can do anything he sets his mind to. Stoked he wanted me to make this for him! Had to stop filming a bit short due to the broken foot, but the footage was killer none the less!

Throwback: sMc Photos.

So I was going through old photos and I came by a lot of cool old photos of myself and the sMc crew that nobody really saw. Crazy to see how much things have changed in over a year. Riders here include Alec Aranowitz, Myself, Christian Meldrum, Gunnar Johnson, Chris Ruelas, Anthony Sanchez, Ryan Schuk, and Junho Park.

HB Ride.

Met up with Alex Pham, Michael Trinh, Christian Meldrum, Sam Bouchard, Ryan Schuk, Junho Park, and Zach Babinski in Huntington yesterday for an afternoon ride. Definitely a good day and got a lot of pictures from it. Definitely need to do more of these. A big planned ride may even be in the works.
