Harvey with the FPA dudes just released TWO separate recaps from the Suck My Comp weekend. One has more of a behind the scenes vibe mostly starring the FPA and Fixated guys while the other is more of a full event coverage. Love these, thanks Harvey!
Michael Guntetong made it out to our Suck My Comp 5 event last month and covered the event with some beautiful photos on film. Thanks dude! Also make sure to check out his VX coverage of the event here.
Official recap from the competition we hosted last Saturday! Once again, HUGE thank you for everybody who showed up and shoutout to all of our sick competitors. Already looking forward to the next one. Also big thank you to Rob Trent for capturing the day!
Fixed gear veteran Michael Guntetong showed up to the event on Saturday VX in hand and captured some great highlights! Dope song choice and cut together real smooth.
Sorry, not sorry, all the content for the next few days is definitely going to involve the comp. I want to write a bit about this weekend as a whole.
Sometimes, motivation to do this fluctuates. Some weeks I feel like going hard in pushing out content and doing all this revolving SMC, and some weeks I feel the “whats the point” feeling. Next time I feel lack of motivation though, I’m going to think about this weekend. The amount of energy and hunger that’s still left in this niche scene we all know and love is absolutely thriving. From the street sessions, the house hangouts, to talking about fixed gear, the FOAD video premiere, and the competition itself, all of it has so much electricity still. I know the running half-joke is that FGFS is dead, but now I know that with a little CPR everyone comes to life.
I want to first of all thank everybody for coming out. We had people travel from all over the place just to come to this little event we put on and that’s all I could ask for from the scene. Seattle, Salt Lake City, NorCal, Inland Empire, and even Europe!
Second, I wanna thank the people and sponsors who helped make the event as smooth and as exciting as possible. Pizza, Deacon, Suzie, Jacob, Matt, Jackson, Calvin for the music, Kareem, Montana Ricky, Ritchie, and all the other sponsors.
Suzie tried to count everyone that came at one point, and she counted over 100 people that showed out. That beats all 5 previous years that we’ve been throwing competitions. I don’t know about you, but that is incredibly motivating.
Anyways, thanks for reading. My heart is full. Here’s some pictures from mostly my phone and some other’s phones from the whole weekend. We’ll be back next year but hopefully I don’t need to wait a whole year to see most of you guys. Stay tuned for our official video recap!
That was quick! Cyco Andy just dropped a raw style in-depth look at our contest from Saturday. Check out some of the madness that went down and stay tuned for our official recap!
