Man, straight from the archives - this was a draft I saved whilst I was pretty frickin' tired and not really in the frame of mind to be actually writing stuff. So yeah, slightly tweaked, here's some old stuff that's good:
Kriss Kyle
Ben Lewis
Tim Knoll gets chatty.
And now for some new stuff:
Josh Bedford has a pretty interesting living setup, which you can see on Dig, and indeed in Dig #81.
Caleb Quanbeck and the lesser known Jabari Winters feature in this Hoffman edit. Nozzzzzzz.
Ashley Charles absolutely rules, in this case 'for' Eclat.
Sticking with the 'A's, Albert Mercado has the nicest style. Even if this was a dedicated filming-missions-galore type video this would be cool, but word on the internet is is that it was filmed during lunchbreaks and general time off work. All good. For Shadow...
Lastly - I'm going to a rally school tomorrow to drive fast sideways. Despite the fact I'm going to be ragging around in a pretty sweet rally-specced car, I'd imagine that I'm still going to be going slower than Gary Young in this edit for Odyssey.

Precision!
Jeez, this ender's pretty damn precise! Doing those brakeless is literally all good.
First person to do one on a backrail on a quarter wins life.
Jason Owens, aka "That dude from Safety First", has a pretty cool webvid up on the Kink site.
In total contrast, X-Games is going on at the moment. Gary Young won the prelims/eliminator/whatever the hell the thing is that isn't the final of the Park comp. Haven't really seen/heard who's done what else over there, and until I see the highlights video I'm not that fussed...
Those two vids are from ESPN and Ride US. If you want to see Tunney do some sports writing, click here. Would've been fairly unimaginable about 5-6 years ago...
Lastly - Mat Hoffman is rad. This video contains Mat Hoffman and is also therefore rad.

X-Games Park w/Gary Young
This setup looks amazing, and bearing in mind that's me (fairly well documented loathing of skateparks), that's saying something...

Screamer!
Yeah yeah, I know a lot of you don't like football, but damn - from yesterday's semi between the Netherlands and Uruguay. Top corner? You betcha.
Speaking of "top corner", if the spots in this video had to be described in a footballing analogy, I'd classify them as pretty top corner too. Van Homan and Scotty Cranmer doing things for Duo, which I spotted on the G-Sport site (which still has that awesome edit up from yesterday).
In that I don't really think that entirely copying a block of text a writer has created and then poaching the video too (in much the same way that if I did a website purely devoted to scanning pages of Dig and putting them online I'd imagine it'd ruffle a few feathers), I'm just going to link to the ESPN site where you can check out Tunney's write-up and Larry Rhodes' video yourself. It's Big Daddy - why wouldn't you (Answer: Because it was up a few days ago and I didn't spot it first time round, but you've already seen it)?
Gary Young is rad, as are the Tuesdays with Miles videos. Combo.
Lastly - the 2011 Deluxe Tech 2 frames are now in the UK, in a warehouse not too far from the shop as it happens. Deluxe do some good stuff, and if you're after a shiny new trails frame then you'd have to be somewhat of a tool not to check the Tech 2 out.

Compare and contrast.
Odyssey have knocked up this edit of Gary Young, Aaron Ross and Chase Hawk riding in the X-Games.
Have Kink made a bad video ever? It doesn't really seem like it. This video's no exception - and in case you were wondering, I did some calculations, and that last rail is about 948% steep. So steep you don't even measure it in angles, it's a percentage. That's scientific fact.

Represent.

ET Variations RPRZNT.
Fly RPRZNT.
Gazza RPRZNT.
Old school KP/DS RPRZNT.
Federal RPRZNT.
Trails RPRZNT.
Vic Ayala RPRZNT.
But yeah, enough of that. I'm pretty tired from riding a hell of a lot then going and playing football for 2 hours in a big metal flood-lit cage, so apologies for the lack of effort. I'm gonna go take my pegs off and see if my hub's fallen apart (again). Something feels awful back there.

Snippets.
Lotek have unveiled their new line of shoes and clothing - some pretty rad T's this time around, and some pretty sweet looking shoes too. Click here to go there directly.
Speaking of - Fremont/Lotek rider Wolfman has a video bikecheck up from the Macneil site.
Wolfman Bike Check from MACNEIL BMX on Vimeo.
Linked in with Macneil, Gary Young is one of the four riders in a surprisingly bad web-edit, considering it's made by Vans and has some pretty good riders in it. One line, for example, is about 15secs long and ends with Ali Whitton doing a 180 down a 3-set. Right... Anyway, if you're really bored and don't have anything else better to do, click here.

Whooooa...
The new Ride site might not be the best looking thing in the world, but content wise they're certainly doing alright. For example, this ridiculous video from Federal flow rider Shayn Steels (Reminds me of Joel's riding a lot?). What the hell?! Federal's flow team are nuts...
Federal Bikes - Shayn Steels from Slack BMX from Federal BMX on Vimeo.
Here's the overspill photos from the 3 Tom's Malaga trip (Video's posted below somewhere...), and here's Garrett Reynolds, Dennis Enarson and Gary Young's runs from the Simpel Session, as well as their Finals vid. BMX is being taken to the next level - how do you do tricks that hard, that consistently, and that well?
