Ruff In New York – Phone Gallery

Back in June the Ruff team took a trip to New York and tore up the city filming for our new video (premiering during SMC 9 weekend on December 5th and 6th). I shot so many cool photos with my real camera, but those will have to stay hidden for a while until the video comes out. For now, here are some views from my phone’s perspective during the short 4 days I was there.

CSK – Court Sentence Klips

COURT IS IN SESSION. New CSK jam from Jacob Ruff and Ruff associates for vertical viewing pleasure (I still enjoyed watching on desktop though). So many nifty shifty tight lines in here, Jacob has become an expert at this park.

Additionally, Jacob has released brand new CSK hats… making these the first CSK clothing product to drop in many many years!

RUFF SLEEPER PROTO RAFFLE

So as you may or may not know, Ruff has been hard at work the last few years filming for an absolutely game changing full length. Last week though, all 5k worth of Matt’s camera gear was stolen from his van. So Ruff is throwing a fundraiser on a proto Sleeper frame to help raise some funds so he can buy all his gear back.

Pizza’s Fixated Vigorous Bike Check

Lucas got his hands on a Fixated Vigorous earlier this year and built it up real proper. Pizza said this bike has helped him learn a lot and feels snappy, lightweight, and comfortable. Usually people never say this, but I think the pictures actually do the sparkles justice!

We went out to Pedro last January and shot these pics, and honestly just kind of forgot to post them cause we’ve had so much going on. Full rundown after the jump!

Bike Check – JBall’s Black Ruff Glimmer

Recently I built up a fresh Ruff Glimmer frame in a rare color choice for me… black! Although the only reason I did this was because they were sold out of raw at the time, I ended up being really happy with how the build turned out. I’ve had a black Ruff before but wasn’t in love with how that bike looked. Why do I like my black build now though?

I think the black fork, proto bars, and chrome details are really helping me love my current bike. Full rundown after the jump!
