FOAD – NOWHERE FAST, SOMEWHERE SLOW OUT NOW

After what feels like an eternity since it’s initial previewing at SMC 7, Jackson has finally finished this masterpiece that is Nowhere Fast, Somewhere Slow. I’m glad Jackson took his time with this though. It’s nearly an entirely different video from it’s initial version and I think we’ve got an instant classic on our hands.

The talent in this is really fun. We’ve got Jackson, Chase, Evan, Ramona, Macee, Parker, and other friends that we all either know and love or are learning about for the first time. We’ve got a combination of street track riding, crit racing, and insanely high level Trick Track tricks from Jackson and Chase.

All this footage is mixed and matched in such a fun way too. I think Jackson pushed some barriers in editing style and really went for something different. It’s impressive both on a creative level and a technical level and kept my eyes glued the whole time.

This will be on repeat for a while for me. Absolutely crushed it Jackson + gang!

FOAD: LAST TRY OUT NOW

The moment the whole community has been waiting for is here, FOAD’s new full length movie Last Try is now available on Youtube for everyone’s viewing pleasure! After the massive success of their 2nd full length film: The Good Times Are Killing Me, it would have been hard to follow by any means. Jackson, in my opinion, surpassed all expectations and managed to create yet another instant classic for the community. Here’s what Jackson had to say about it:

““Last Try” is FOAD’s third and final full-length feature. Following the release of “The Good Times Are Killing Me” in 2016, this new film has been in the making for over 3 years. “Last Try” is a movie about people, places, and wheels. Features the familiar cast of FOAD riding fixed gear bikes in unusual ways: whether it be fixed gear freestyle, traffic, or through the unfamiliar of snow and dirt on tracklocross bikes. Recently, the members of FOAD have started to grow up, embracing derailleurs, brakes, and even suspension. The film documents the progression into mountain biking, and while the bikes may be different, the passion is the same. The film also explores other interests such as BMX and rollerblading. FOAD was born from fixed gear freestyle, and true to the fixed gear roots of FOAD, the film features bicycle riders from across the globe. From Colombia to France, the film documents the riders do show off their unique style with skids, wheelies, and tricks. It’s been 13 years since Macaframa, and even more since MASH SF, this next generation of riders continues to push the limits.”

Incredible work all around. Such a feel good video with nearly every realm of bikes and locations represented in some form. I’ve already watched it 3 times since it released. SUPPORT FOAD HERE FOR ALL THE FREE CONTENT THEY PROVIDE US
