Smorgasbord.

Man, go away for another weekend and so much good stuff gets posted... Here's a quick re-cap of some treats.

Scott Ditchburn's part of the new Lotek mixtape is now up. Wonder if that first clip was a nod to the intro of the old (and awesome!) Lotek Mixtape?



Tammy has got another awesome edit out - machine! - this time for Amity.



In a slight contrast to those two vids, here's a more chilled out pair - firstly Clint Reynolds, and secondly Tom Dugan.





Then totally different to all of those - Sean Sexton and Chase Hawk took a trip to the Cayman Islands to shoot an article for Ride and get a video for Odyssey. You'll need to get Ride for the photos and text, but click below for the vid...



Defgrip have also put up Pt.2 of their Photographers feature - click here to ch-ch-ch-ch-check it.

Lastly, here's a section from Props that contains some cool riding but also an ability to completely change your internal elocution for rider's names.

Mix.

This is awesome, for some fairly obvious reasons.



Mutiny are working on a top-loader.



Scott Ditchburn has lost some pegs (pretty sure he used to always run 4?) but still does some ridiculous lines.



Akin Hercules-Walker rides some fun spots from inside the M25.



Lastly - S&M went there. Oh dear...

I am now tired.

Weekend, w00t.

In case you were unaware, Scotty Ditchburn is really good. Subrosa are, hence him now being on Pro. This is his 'Welcome to the Big Time™' edit:



They've also got some awesome photos from Tom Perry (doing the unusual thing of being 'known' as Tom Perry then sort of going to a nickname, unlike most people who go from being 'known' as a nickname to then using their proper name all the time) on their site.

Something about G-Sport begging for followers on Twitter doesn't really make too much sense in my head - but there we are. A new Dakota Roche video hangs in the balance.

Dakota also has an interview up on ESPN.

Everyone loves new stuff - so does Kink.

Speaking of new stuff, Bas Keep must be getting some new stuff these days in that he's riding for Cult, which is also where I saw this edit.



Lastly - Mutiny have a bunch of photos up of Robbo doing a new line, which happens to look pretty bueno.

Consistency?

You betcha.

First thing that you, as the reader of this blog, need to do is go and check out Benson's portfolio site, then check out the BMX section and the photo of James Cox doing a suicide. When it first came out in print it was awesome, and this just reminded me how good it was. There's also plenty of other good stuff in there, apart from the photo of Jimmy Rushmore at Rom which made me want to claw my eyes out.

Dig have a couple of things up today that didn't really interest me but may interest you. Firstly, I don't run brakes so Fly cables don't really appear on my radar, and secondly a Scott Ditchburn video bikecheck with what you might describe as a flawed riding-to-talking ratio. Still, if you - like here - are being blessed with a cold, rainy evening as a vicious blow from Mother Nature to make up for the last week of sun and ridiculous warmth, it's something to do, eh?

Speaking of sun and warmth, this video of Josh Eilken is a glimpse of what might happen if we actually get a summer this year. That, and if you get rad on a freecoaster and learn flairs...



I've got to go and edit a video now, so it'll have to be toodle pip.

Tim Lewis rules.

I haven't seen Tim in pretty much forever, so it was cool to see this amazing new video from him. That nozzer 180 up the SB block is officially where it's at, what a hero!



In related news, this DUB video is also where it's at.

Winners.

One day, two edits, two DUB and Odessa riders? Boom! First up is the now strangely not-as-goofy-footed-as-I-thought Fooman with a pretty sweet Will Evans-edited webvid:



And secondly is The Man, Scott Ditchburn. Too good - that's all that needs to be said. I didn't know who had edited it, but was fully into it, and it turns out it was none other than Jason Phelan. Haven't seen anything by him before, but this was awesome!

Salvation.

As an antidote to all this overly light-weight ridiculousness, T1 have put up a photo of the Solid-made Garrett Byrnes Barcode, with rumours of a regular Solid-made Barcode in the pipeline too.



To be honest, without that seat-stay/top-tube junction that was so good even Haro copied it, it's not really a Barcode in my eyes, but it's still a step in the right direction!

Unrelated, but I was just on my Twitter account doing some promo for my other blog when I spotted a new Scott Ditchburn edit on the Ride site.

Shut. Down.

Corey Machinez.

Check out this video of Corey Machinez doing ridiculous things on a bike in Chicago, filmed and edited by the awesomeness that is Vinyl. Muy bueno!



Harry Main has broken his leg, which sucks. This means yet another no-show for the apparently much anticipated live battle between Mark Webb and Harry. BMX: Serious business.

In other 'apparently' news, Scott Ditchburn is for some reason off Orchid and on Odessa? Weird move, maybe it's different on the other side of the fence...

Lastly, from Federal, you know you're street when you go to a skatepark and don't even touch the trannie...

Bits 'n' pieces.

Saw this on a trials site this morning, then found out it'd already made it onto TCU. Gutted, haha. Anyway, still well worth watching. It's not BMX, but there's still a hell of a lot of skill (and balls) involved in doing some of this stuff, and it certainly makes you look at spots differently.



Ashley Charles is sunning himself in LA at the moment, and he scored a bikecheck up on Ride. There's also the second part of the rad Framed series on ESPN from WTP which talks about a good few of the products you can see on Ashley's bike.

Speaking of Ride - on the better Ride site, there's a pretty sweet two-part interview with Scotty D and Jack from DUB - click here for that.

Rob Castle's got a sequence up on Metal's site. Boom!

Merit Compatibles is back, back again. Merit's back, tell a friend.

All this shiny new stuff from Tree and Lotek/Fremont is now (Finally) in the UK. Shiny!





I can't remember if I posted this or not, but if I didn't - here you go. Hanson Little is now on Mutiny Pro, and has this video to celebrate.

Keith Romanowski has a little vid up from the recent media-saturated TCU-Texas trip. 1 trip, 5 videos?

Apparently some guy who I don't know's done a really long nose manual. If you imagine a long nose manual on a ledge, you've basically imagined that 30 second video, so I can't really be bothered tracking some embed codes down. Essentially, this is probably going to be more interesting:

Forgot to put a title on.

I first met Tom Davis at a P5 jam in Leicester. I didn't know who he was, and in a write-up I did for S43 I just called him Chase Dehart in lieu of his real name. He did some rad stuff at that jam, has put out some cool videos, and this is his latest one. It's a bit OTT on the post production for my liking, but horses for courses, as they say.



The latest installment of "The Making Of Stay Fit" is up courtesy of Kuwahara, this time featuring Chase "Dems some tabez" Hawk.



Lotek's latest attempt at foot coverers is a "collab" with Shadow as Chase Dehart's signature shoe. Click here to check that out.

DUB have decided to cut back on their coke and weed budget to further their camera budget, resulting in a shiny new HD cam. As a result, here's some SD footage to use it up. To quote Props, remember these are trained professionals in controlled circumstances...

Scotty Frickin' D!

Streetphire!
