Spotted this on Can You Dig It and got so stoked! The Potoczny’s are throwing the annual Welcome Jam at their trails on August 24th! If you’re anywhere near Pennsylvania I highly, highly advise you make it out for this because it’s going to be an awesome time. Definitely had a hell of a good time a few years back when I went to this.
The Omni Trails Jam that we’re sponsoring has been postponed until August 4th! They caught a ton of rain lately and the trails are pretty soggy and beat up. They will still be having a session this Saturday along with digging to get the trails prepped for the 4th, so if you’re around, get on over there!
We’ve seen a fair amount of footage from Yohei “Ucchie” Uchino the past few months and it’s no surprise that he’s now doing it for Freegun over in Japan. Check out the official word below! Hopefully this means we’ll be seeing a welcome edit soon.
“After signing a deal with a major distributor in Japan, Freegun is proud to announce the addition of Japanese flatland phenomenon Yohei “Ucchie” Uchino to the Freegun family. Ucchie has been killing it on the back wheel for years now and has numerous big contest wins and podiums under his belt, along with a NORA Cup for number one flatland rider of the year. Ucchie joins a stacked team of riders in Europe, as well as Freegun’s entire U.S. BMX team including Terry Adams, Daniel Sandoval, Ben Hucke, AJ Anaya, Alex Jumelin, Sebasian Smith, Nina Buitrago, Tyler Gilliard, Kaden Stone, Victor Peraza, and Bryce Tryon.
Justin Spriet isn’t a name I’m familiar with, but I can’t see that lasting long! This guy absolutely shreds on such a crazy high level, I can’t wait to see more! This is the “must see” of the day for me BY FAR.
Straight off The Merged’s front page, Van Homan is saving us once more with these longer than average steel pegs! In this age of disposable plastic tubes that burn through or blow off far too often, it’s great to see Van Homan keeping with something that will last session after session, no matter how much, you like to grind. To get all the info, hit that link to The Merged in the first sentence.
PRIMO / THE RATIMA GRIP from PRIMO on Vimeo.
This is more of a “lifestyle” video than a riding video, but you do get some grinds out of Jackson Ratima with his freshly mounted signature grips on… though I wouldn’t recommend you putting any grips on with lemonade. I could be wrong, but I can’t see that working out well enough to ride immediately afterwards.
Timmy Theus talks sports teams, freecoasters, beard maintenance, getting cuffed, and more in his “My Five” edit.
Team GT @ Woodward East from Charles Fallon on Vimeo.
Dave Dillewaard, Jeremiah Smith, and Rob Wise spent some time at Woodward East and put together 4 minutes of solid riding from their GoPro cameras.
