Red Bull Stomping Ground

Red Bull Stomping Ground

Sorry for the lack of updates! It’s been a very busy last week and a half with so much going on. I’ll be heading out today to meet up with Jon Wells and Jeff Dowhen in Milwaukee. Then Friday we will be hitting Stomping Ground in Chicago. I’ll be shooting photos so expect a couple of my better ones up on the DIG site and then a whole bunch of “scraps” on here. It sounds like there will be an endless number of people in Chicago this weekend so we’ll see what we can get ourselves into. I’ll try and get something posted up this weekend if I get anything back from people who have interviews out. Boom.

Verge Music Festival Scraps

Photobucket

If you didn’t notice the post below, then you didn’t realize I was in Milwaukee this past weekend for the Verge Music Festival. 4Seasons and Jeff K did a real good job of making things happen for this. I’ve got about 30 photos over on the Dig site of my better photos from the weekend. After the jump you can see 75 not as better photos that are still pretty solid! Let me know what you think in the comments! Thanks!

Verge Music Festival

June 4, 2010

Verge Music Festival

A few months back when we were driving back from Toronto, Jeff Dowhen was telling me about a contest that Jeff K had in the works. I just remember him saying something about it being invite only and it was going to be during a big music festival. I said I’d be there and I’m always one to keep my word.
I’ll be heading to Milwaukee today to check out the Verge Music Festival which will feature the Battle at the Bubbler which will feature guys like Jeff K, Jeff D, Josh Eilken, Tony Neyer, Tony Malouf and Dave Freimuth on the course below. I’ll be shooting photos so expect to see some coverage from this weekend on here and Dig. Get psyched. Oh, and it’s Micah Kranz’s birthday today so that means Milwaukee will probably end up on fire by the end of the night. Boom.

Toronto BMX Jam 2010 Photos

March 10, 2010

Alright, so I finally got a chance to upload a bunch of photos from the contest! It was a chaotic last week or so and have been playing catch up since yesterday. After the jump you can check out like 75ish photos from the contest along with a little story from the fun that was had. Also, make sure you check out the REPO on the Dig website that I put together. It’s 18 black and whites that I had.

Toronto BMX Jam 2010 Trip

Alright, today has been a long awaited day for me. Today I pack my car up and head over to Milwaukee. I’ll be meeting up with Jon Wells, Jeff Dowhen and a few others where we will be loading up the Sun Ringle van and making the trek up to Toronto for the jam this weekend. I’ve never been to the land of Canarnia, or out east at all really, so it should be a fun trip. The game plan for me is to document the trip as well as I can and post up photos, words, and maybe a video from the trip between here and the Dig site. Given the wi-fi might be limited so these updates could go on into next week after I return on Tuesdayish.

So if you will be in Toronto this weekend I look forward to seeing you, and if not, I hope I can at least give you a little insight as to why you should go next year.

Check back tomorrow or Friday for something.

Frostbike 2010: EYEbmx

February 21, 2010

EyeBMX is a new brand that you should be hearing more about in the coming weeks and months. Erik Engstrom is the head of the project though another race brand. Erik had the prototype Eye Q (get it?) frame out to show off and let people know about what’s coming. Check out some closer photos of the frame and expect to hear more right here on BMXunion soon!

Frostbike 2010: Profile Racing

February 21, 2010

If you have ever had the chance to meet Charlie from Profile, you would know he’s a real good dude. He was taking care of business at the booth for them. Also, it was his birthday… at least that’s what we told the Mongolian restaurant during the BMX dinner. That was a good laugh. But yeah, check out some photos from the Profile booth!

Frostbike 2010: Odyssey

February 21, 2010

I’m always stoked to check out what Odyssey has going on. Even though they premiere anything new at Interbike, it’s always cool to catch up. Nuno was handling the booth like last year so it was cool to see him as well… Check out a few pictures!
