To go along with Sean blowing up all over the world he has a cool interview on BMXUnion that you can check out here. It has some good pictures and videos. But I'll just poach the videos since they are youtubed.

Not to take anything away from Big Daddy's semiannual post but The Dew Tour's Free Flow Tour is going to be here on the 18th of May. So all you kids can get your contest shreddage on. I don't know how is suppose to be ran or anything. But it looks like last year the over all winner of all the Free Flow Tour stops got a spot on one of the Dew Tour stops. I think Johnny Stevens won it last time it was in AZ but I'm not too sure. I'll put up more info once I get it.
No posts for almost two weeks so Big Daddy has to step in!!!
I just wanna give a shout out to Will Bissel!! It appears our man from down South earned a last minute birth onto the U.S. Olympic BMX Team!! here's the link: U.S. Olympic Team.
Tuscon has some of my favorite old people and they're even starting to get some parks south of Casa... Check out the rest of that link and see what else southern AZ has going on!!!
just in case you missed it road fools is starting in phx on saturday at the levis store at tempe marketplace.
so come out, meet some sweet dudes, and tell em all your secret spots. haha
Johnny Harnish won advanced(pro) at the Alliance ride shop contest, Shultzy won high bunny hop with something around 41-42 inches and Dre won best trick with a 360 tire grab to barspin over the box. People were killing themselves for the 150 bucks up for grabs in best trick; frontflip attempts, flair no-handers attempts, and some of the HUGEST nac-nacs I've ever seen just for 150 dollars.
The OCGC is hosting a trail jam at 12th street. So if your from Utah you have to go and if anyone from AZ wants to come out they should it will be fun.
The turnout for Electronical Premiere/Massacre Showing was awesome. Aside from some technical issues, everything went off without a hitch. Vibe was super good and it seemed like everyone was into the whole thing.
TCK took home the win in Best Video for the insane street riding that went on. All those guys produced some wild ass shit, especially Robbie with that ice to over.
Shane Rieder got the vote for Best Rider and it was a well deserved win. Who films an entire fucking part in 3 weeks. That section could have easily been in any legit video. Good job Champ!
Big thanks to everyone filmed, edited, and rode in the videos, the level of riding in all the videos was nuts. All the sponsors for sending in product. Adam at thecomeup for spreading the word before voting got all fucked. Everyone who voted and took the time to watch the videos. Finally, Ryan at Kore for going above and beyond the call of duty and throwing down tons of prizes (he was literally just taking product off the pegs and throwing em in the boxes), ordering food, and giving us a place to be wild when we really didn't think we would have somewhere to wrap it all up. Thanks again!
last weekend while down in tucson for the hamm jam i met zach james, who moved down there from jersey. he told me about a video he was involved in. and that Andy "the gator" erickson was in also. ( if youre familier with tucson. you know how bad ass andy is. before i left they were nice enough to give me a copy of the video. I went into watching the video w/ no idea what to expect, other than it had some bad asses in the roster Andy Erickson, Jeff Grindstaff, Kevin Mitchell, JD Whitehead, Eddie Muscle,
Kevin Douglas, Jake Hunter, Brad Whilden, Wasted Aaron, John Greenage, Will Love,
Matt Moore, Pat Burke, Rob Hagmann, Zach James, JR Henry, Jake Booher, and more. the video had 2 parts.. one part wild ass movie involving liver stealing, chases, all sorts of shit you think of when you think "jersey" hah.. the other part amazing bike riding. it was edited like a giant mix section which was awesome. and different from the edits of today.( think fbm albert st. ) the riding was seriously awesome, spots from all over the us. and i definetly said oh shit more than a few times. this is seriously one of the best videos ive seen in a while.. maybe its because i went in w/ no expectations, maybe its just cause its that good.. my advice is to get one and judge for yourself. thanks again to andy and zach for the copy! our house appreciates it.
