After 60 of these columns, it’s getting a little tricky to come up with a unique intro for this.

It’s pretty crazy how fast time can go when you’re staying busy. One of the biggest things that we’ve been trying to do with The Union lately is producing an original feature everyday of the month. Now… I’m sure a lot of you are thinking “that wouldn’t be that hard”… But when you work a real job that kicks your ass along with trying to keep up with the constant flow of BMX videos, products and parts, it can get a little hectic. Luckily, we were able to pull off another full month which has lead to opportunities to take a closer look at bikes, get to know some of your favorite riders, take a look at some of the latest BMX products, keep up with all the latest and greatest videos. There’s a good chance you missed a few of these things, so I’ve compiled all of the features into one post so you can easily get to each and every one. Take a peek!
In today’s world having a cell phone is the norm and a huge majority of smart phones actually have a pretty decent camera on them. I can say personally that the “camera” that I carry most happens to be my iPhone. I always have it on me everywhere I go and I happen to shoot quite a bit with it. I never really do anything with any of the photos from my phone and the other day I was reminded of the saying “The best camera is the one you have on you.” To me, as a photographer that makes perfect sense. It’s one of those things where you don’t think; you just shoot. For example, if I’m out and don’t happen to have an actual camera on me, my first instinct is to grab my phone and capture the moment without focusing too much on the end result. That is what photography is all about. It’s about living in the moment, it’s about capturing what’s in front of you and it’s about taking advantage of your surroundings.
It seems like the weeks are just flying by faster and faster lately. It’s already that time of the week to dig into a fresh round of Products: for you guys to take a look at! This week we’ll be getting a closer look at the Party bars from Subrosa, the new Classic Logo tank top from Freed Bikes, the Salvation topload stem from Cult, the Stun cassette wheel from The Shadow Conspiracy and finally the 23 Fork from And Forks. Let’s get into this!
A few weeks back, our friend Wayne from VividPhotographyByWayne.com sent through a bunch of real solid photos from the Boobicon jam that went down in California. Things got a little crazy on our end and one thing lead to another and all the sudden it’s a few weeks later and the photos are just going up. They might be a little late, but it doesn’t take away that the jam had a good turn out, great weather and some awesome riding go down. Take a peek at the photogallery by hitting the link below!
