Yesterday I got a little crew together and we went riding my local spots and this is what turned out. A super
fun day of riding and good times. In the video you will see myself, Sam, Vakula, K.C., Frank the Tank and Chadwick
came for the last spot. ENJOY then go ride your local spot.

There you have it. The final part of I Got Work. Hope you liked it. Check out the videos page for all the sections. Word.
5050 video is now available at 5050bmx.com its worth it. None bmx crap Lakai's video Fully Flared is out. I haven't seen it but apparently you will lose sleep over it. Its supposed to be epic as in Baker 3 x a million.
Anyhow Hell Hole owns your Hole! NO HOMO!
Everyones favorite person is officially up. YEAH!!!!!!! No one is better than Dustin and this part really proves. He is just one of those guys who doesn't keep up with anything BMX and just rides for the hell of it. His style may be off key but its probably the most original stuff in the video. There is no way you can hate on this part and if you do, i'll ban you from bikes. YEAH DUSTIN!!!!!!!!!!!!

old school likes to talk shit on me.. granted.. he crossed the line ( see bbq comments for proof) but hes tried to bring other people into his hatred.. one time he focused some hate on ryan fudger.. heres what mr fudger had to say.
Ryan Fudger’s Review of Jason Ryan’s Existence
(For those that don’t know what I'm talking about, go here and search my name)
[To Old School] I actually had idea that I wouldn’t have to type up some long-winded reply to this since when it originally appeared on your site right before Interbike. I figured you’d be there, I could ask you for some coke, and we could settle it face to face. Nope. Then I thought about replying, but I quickly remembered that I wasn’t honest enough with myself to care about bagging on a “former friend,” so I let it be. I figured I’d run into you eventually and it’d be all tense and you’d probably try to fight me like you did with EVT. Nope…not even an appearance at Fort! So then this shit with KC comes up and I realize that you’re a trite child—I’d call you washed up, but you’d have to actually make something of yourself at some point—who gets their kicks trying to get in schoolyard tussles and posting anonymously on web sites.
I never really did have a problem with you; I sensed tension through my association with, yes, KC Badger, but mostly through your words about my good friend, Ryan Sher. Remember that one Fort contest report? Or that time you tried to fight him in the parking lot because you had to resort to acting a fool? That’s one of my best friends, who I lived with for many years, so I chose to not exactly be cordial with you. And you obviously felt the same way, until you had your new video and acted all buddy-buddy in order to get something out of me. You know, since we were “friends” who just so happened to not talk in the last two years, but it’s all good now that you want me to review your video, right? So anyway, my retort to this way-off-base rant of yours:
I never stayed at the “original Dirt Bro’s house in Tucson.” I don’t know what that is, or who lived there. The couple of times I stayed in Tucson, I was with Dave White and stayed with the owner of Celestial Skatepark—I think his name was Ross. And while you and I may have been cool to one another and exchanged web links, it never really made us “friends.” I don’t know about you, but a little banter here and there over the course of months doesn’t really get you invited to my wedding, you know?
You did give a copy of The Carnie and Trailer Trash show to Gary, which also not happened to work in our VCR for some reason…and besides the horrible review that Joey Cobbs wrote in Ride and the laughable response I heard from everyone else, I never saw anything past the titties flying upside down in the preview. And, I don’t remember ever giving you any feedback. Maybe it was one of those, “Yeah man, it was way cool” type things to appease the little kid inside of you that needs to lash out, but I honestly don’t remember. Either way, it’s a moot point, since liking CATT has no bearing on how shitty Impetus was.
Heaven forbid I actually go back and watch the Impetus of Cletus for a third time, but I know a majority of my review was focused on Josh Small’s section. You, being a pillar of the Arizona community, the head of the 3BC, and all around good person, should realize how a part like that can reflect on BMX as a whole. I’m sorry, but BMX has moved past grabbing your junk and shaking hands with security guards. The rest of the video could have been gold and Josh’s lack of skill on a bike and morals as a human being would still have been the focus of my review. The Impetus of Gay? Sweet dude. Yeah, I laughed hysterically at the lake jumping stuff, but I saw that shit the month before when you sold it to Maximum Exposure or whatever that shit is on Spike. Besides, it gets a little creepy as the girls get more ugly. If you want to get into filmmaking, go for it. I even said that the intros and production were good, but for fuck’s sake, stop making BMX videos that no one wants to see. I’m sorry if this hurts your feelings and you can’t take an honest opinion, but if you can’t come at me like a man about it and feel forced to tuck your tail and spread lies on your web site, then that only reflects on you as a person.
For anyone reading this that doesn’t really know me. I started smoking weed in eighth grade. I quit in ninth. Spare a few drunken nights over the years and a recent trip to Amsterdam, I don’t even smoke weed, let alone do coke. I’ve never even tried the stuff. I’ll drink gin until my eyes roll up into the back of my head, but I don’t even know what “cecil” or “sketch” is. Ask Old School about those.
With love,
Ryan Fudger

So these three guys were pretty much the main riders that I looked up to when I started riding. All three of them were and are amazing in almost every aspect of riding. J Lo is the smoothest person you will ever see ride, Nick can flow with the best of em, and Adam is just insane. He will do things you never thought were possible on a bike and then tell you he has been doing it for longer than you've been riding. They were and still are friends, so I thought i'd feature 'em together in a split part.
P.S.
The beginning of the video is from a video done by Tony Williams called Pro-gression. It had full sections from all three of these guys and they all stood out pretty well for how long ago it was filmed. I thought i'd add it in the beginning of the section so you could see what they were doing almost 7 years ago. Adams banger in that video was a manual to double kink rail, he was like 16.
I heard it off the space so yeah heres what he said.....
"Someone jacked my bike last night and my bike rack got all bent up because it was locked on there. Repost this so kids around here know whats up,I have all standard parts and you guys know that I have that mcneil seat thats the big one and I have that premium front wheel if you see it or those parts you all know what my bike looks like, kill that fuck and get my bike or call me 480-388-1073 NO ONE HAS THE SAME PARTS AS ME WE ALL KNOW MY BIKE IS BEAT UP AND A BIT JANKYI need my rig back, I hate thieves and i will kill whoever took my bike. Help me out I cant afford this. Greg HELP FIND MY BIKE AND I WILL BREAK YOU OFF SOME MONEY"
I hope someone finds the kids that stole the bike before Greg. He will probably kill them!
Even though this is suppose to be a BMX blog. Zak Maeda sent me this little edit of him riding trials. I've seen him do way better but this still isn't too bad.
soo.. i have to clear a few things up.. the city of chandler isnt to syked .. they think its a HUGE event. ha.but... the bbq is not an "event" rather just a day where everyone comes to the skatepark and hangs out and eats some food.. a social gathering if you will. i dont know why the city would be wierd about this.. why not let someone do something fun and good for the community..
i guess fun and positive isnt a good thing..
soo.. dont call the city of chander for information about the bbq ( i dont know why people would do that anyways) just come out that day.. hang out.. ride.. and eat some food.. it will be fun
word.
Johnny Stevens Levi's video and since Kc is too modest.
12.05.2007
Johnny has got a meet the team video up on Levi's site that you can check out here.
Also, KC has a bike check on vital that you can peep here. I was waiting for KC to put this up but he never did because he is too modest. So I'll do it.
This is in association w/ the fixies... but... fuck it... bmx kids get way drunker. Every monday from here on out we're doin a cyclist night at PV... drink specials. Basically show up w/ your bike and drink for cheap as hell. 3 dolla pitchers!!
Jackson Riggs has been coming through with some really good videos. I'm proud of the guy. Here is a vid filmed in one day, and by the looks of it only a couple hours, of Shane Rieder. Shane has got to be the most DIALED bike rider in all of AZ. Winner of the Local Exposure and all around good guy, Shane really is on the up and up and I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if he went somewhere with bikes. Keep an eye out.
sandy carson is putting on a fundraiser/art show/ contest in austin on dec 15th. ill have some art in the show .. all proceeds go to jimmy..
