The latest BMX Videos, Products and News!
I think, for me personally, getting a look at the new DuFFS stuff is one of the bigger highlights of Frostbike for me. I blame Brian Osborne for my increasing interest in shoes the last few years. Brian was on hand to tempt me with a whole bunch of fresh shoes, including Kevin Porter’s signature model (above). Let’s take a look at what DuFFs has to offer…

Made the way over to the Stolen booth. David Wooten was there making sure things were going smooth, and gave me a run through of what they had on the table. Let’s take a look…

Shortly after, I cruised over to the Shadow Conspiracy booth to see what Ronnie Bonner and Mike were up to. Shadow has been busy dropping a lot of new product over the last year or so, so it’s always good to get a closer look at some of their product they have to offer. Take a look…

Moving along to the next booth. Grant Smith flew over from Scotland, and Tony Malouf came up from Chicago to be on hand for BSD‘s booth for Frostbike. Reed Stark decided to make a pro rider appearance since he wasn’t too busy partying at the U of M as well. Let’s take a look at what kind of goodies BSD has for you to check out…

Moving on down to the Fly Bikes booth. Kevin Porter was manning the booth with the aid of Dave Leep. Similar to last year, this was kind of the designated location for everyone to come chill and b.s. The booth was loaded up with goodies as well. So, let’s take a look…

The next booth over was the Eastern booth. It’s always pretty funny when those guys are around. They’re always talking about their prototype plastic hubs, frames, and other nonsense that some of you would probably believe was true if I actually let them talk about it to you. It’s not true, but what is true is that they had a bunch of goodies at their booth to check out. Let’s take a look…

Yesterday was a doozie. I made my way up to Bloomington bright and early to make it to QBP’s Frostbike. The day was filled with talking with the different BMX brands QBP carries about product, along with a lot of other things that were less than business talk, which is more than expected/needed to make the day move.
I made the first stop at the Odyssey booth where I found Nuno Oliveira hanging out and slanging goods to the shops who were in attendance. Don’t worry, he was far from the zombie look he has in the photo due to all the coffee floating around. As expected, there wasn’t much for “new” (in relation to Interbike new), but there were still a few new things that were on the table like the two new colorways and a few other goodies. So, let’s take a peek…

Brian Osborne taming the Cobra at last years Frostbike.
Tomorrow morning I will be making the drive up to Quality Bike Products distribution in Bloomington, Minnesota for their annual Frostbike. Frostbike is similar to Interbike, but on a much smaller scale, and only open to the brands they carry and the shops they distribute to. Each year the event has grown, and it sounds like this year will be the biggest Frostbike in its history.
I’ll be making my rounds at all of the BMX booths such as Odyssey, Shadow Conspiracy, BSD, DuFFS, Profile, Eastern, Sun Ringle, Fly, Stolen and some other brands. Since it’s smaller, I will be able to spend more time at each booth (unlike Interbike where it’s constant go, go, go just to hit every booth in 3 days) and hopefully get some information out of everyone about what’s going on since I’m sure things have changed a bit since September. I’ll be dropping photos and info over the course of the next few days… so get ready!
