Tom Williams, the Tom in Tom and Tina from Empire has an interview up on the Inverted Seatpost blog that’s worth a look. I don’t think many people realize how hard it is to get Tom to make some time to answer a few questions so get over there. Can’t wait to see that new video either…
Red Bull – Ride or Seek Part 2
“The team ventures out to the middle of nowhere Moab, or was it Mars? The rough terrain and uncooperative weather made things challenging for the crew but they still managed to pull a few tricks.
A BMX road trip about more than what you find – it’s what you make. Watch the Red Bull BMX team travel from Salt Lake to Austin and create unique obstacles at iconic riding spots along the way.

Odsy Vision: Travel Log – Southern California to Southern Oregon
ODSY VISION: TRAVEL LOG – SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA TO SOUTHERN OREGON from ODYSSEYBMX.COM
“This month’s ODSY Vision is coming a little late but it’s a hefty one. We gathered up our favorite San Diego crew (Gary Young, Tom Perry, Dirt Ron, Kyle Hart & Hoang Tran) and told them to get in the Van. We then drove north and proceeded to hit up the multitude of concrete parks along the way, making new friends here and there and throwing tabes just about everywhere” – Odyssey
Amity – Tammy’s Oregon Sessions
“I recently went up to Oregon for 10 days to stay and shred with some close friends of mine who acually helped me film this and did a rad job. Super fun times cant thank my boys enough for the help and the party- David Grant, Matt Colisch, Chippy and Shawn” – Tammy / Amity
Product: Quintin “Be A G” Hat
“There are only a handful of people that can live up to the tagline “BE A G”. Gabe Brooks is one of them. Once he got out of the system, Mike Ardelean immediately told us he’s on the team, and that we needed to send him a box of hats. As we’ve gotten to know him over the last year or so, it’s become evident that he has a strong mix of characteristics that allow him to persevere through the worst of times and shine at the best of times. There’s something undeniable about Gabe that we wanted to translate onto a hat. We hope by the powers of osmosis that a part of Gabe is instilled into your psyche.
This is a 6 panel snapback made from wool serge. Navy, with the red underbrim and white snap. Be a G, and rock this one proudly!”
You can pick one of these fresh hats over on the Quintin Webstore now.

Slay The Rail 2 Flyer
“Following on from the phenomenal success of Slay the Rail in 2010, we’re upping the anté in 2011 with what is set to be the loosest rail jam ever seen in Australia; Slay the Rail 2.
Limited to thirty of the biggest names in the Australian street scene. The rail jam is set to blow up inside one of Australia’s most notorious clubs; Revolver on Chapel Street, deep in the heart of Melbourne’s party district; 229 Chapel Street, Prahran.
This ‘one night only’ event will revolve around a head to head elimination session. Riders will pull a number out of a hat and then go head to head, with one rider claiming each five run session. Riders will be judged by their peers, with a show of hands at the end of each jam. Should there be a split or no decision, a ‘one hit, no shit’ ride off will take place. Riders will then be eliminated until we have two riders who will decide their fate with a five minute + one run final jam, the winner claiming the Slay the Rail 2 crown and $1000, the runner up, $500.
Held on the main room floor of Revolver, Slay the Rail Part 2 will be held on Monday 22nd August 2011, doors open at 5pm with riding from 8pm and an all night party to follow stretching through the main and front rooms. Like last year, the rail will be the focus, but we will be adding a bank to jersey at the end of the run off to facilitate up-rail tricks.”
You can find out more information about the jam right here. Also, incase you want to see what went down last year, check the edit below.
