Citygrounds Trip to AZ

This is so goooooood! So many bangers in this edit. Plus the return of Corey! I thought that kid died haha. He was going hard on the scene and it jut seemed like he disappeared. Luckily for us, hes back and better than ever. I feel like his style really changed just watch to see if you agree. His tuck no handers are boss, Matt's park riding is killer and Jensen is just a beast. Definitely one of the better edits.

Eighth Inch 14mm Bueller Hubs!

Kris was testing out the Bueller rims a while back but stopped for some reason so I kind of assumed they weren't going to go into production anymore. I'm glad to announce that these rims are in fact going to be prideced in both 700c and 26". They are also going to be accompanied with the brand new Eighth Inch Bueller Hubs. I like how they include the 14mm axle instead of charging you a crapload for the conversion kit like other companies. At the moment, I'm hoping for a reasonable price on these hubs. Eighth Inch prices their products extremely competitivly so I'll be on the edge of my seat waiting for the pricing. On a related note, I just lost EighthInch's daily competition :( check out their facebook if you want to be a part of their comps.

P.D.P 3

Shit went down at P.D.P! Those BB17 riders are so goood! I loved watching the bunnyhop comp. Everyone there had mad hops! Was there an actual winner or was it a tie because more than one person cleared that top height?

LDG: Forging the Hammer

LDG holding it down for OC! LDG is one of my favorite local shops and this is exactly why. They come out with some of the best products around all while still having that local vibe. I remember going in last year around the time of Mid-West Mayhem and asking about their upcoming freestyle frame. I got to see the geometry of its initial phases and I was already extremely impressed. Oddly enough, they began making the frame in an awkward transition phase of FGFS and I noticed that. Luckily, the LDG crew noticed this as well and did not push the production. They instead changed the geometry 5 times and really but the strength of the frame to the test. Their ability to cater to rider's needs is the reason for such an awesome frame. I have no doubt that this frame will be one of the best in the game and I can't wait for it to come out on 4/20/11 (coincidence?). I'll be sure to ride over and check out them out when the time comes. Until then, you can read up on the process HERE or you can buy LDG parts at their web store HERE. I highly recommend their Split Rib Grip, one of the comfiest grips I've ever felt!

Return of the Viking

It really has been a long time since Prolly's last edit. I read his blog and it seems like FGFS is the last on his priorities list. He gets mad flow from companies and it seems like hes getting all he can. Despite that, in this little edit, Prolly shows off what hes still got. I love the action at the banks, that spot looks hella fun.

Best Bodin/ Sadio Bikes/ Brothers Bikes

This guy shreds! I have no idea where Sadio keeps on finding these crazy riders. They really are beginning to stack up an unbelievable team. This video lead me to the Sadio website and I was lurkin around and I saw the team page. Why is Chris Fonseca on the team? He hasn't done anything in a long time, I thought he wa over FGFS.

Eighth Inch Butcher Build

I don't know why but I always dig build videos especially with new frames. Theres something about building up a bike that is appealing visually. I dunno, just me?

Chunk's Revenge Garrison Bumstead

Poor little Chunks the Bumsteads mascot has passed away and this edit is in his memory. The little guy would have been proud to be represented in this edit. Garrison holding it down! I loved that bench grind.
