Jourdan Barba Bike Check

Jourdan Barba has been blowing up the last few years from the countless amazing web edits he has had or been in. The Take are doing signature colorways for a few of the team riders, and Jourdan just so happened to get his own color. Jourdan just built up his first frame with his color so we figured it would be a good time to do a bike check. Take a look at his new shredder…

How are things going with The Take these days? What does Jeff have in the works for you? Do you have any trips or anything like that coming up?
Things are going real well. I hope to take a trip or two this year, but nothing planned yet.

You have your new signature colorway frame coming through. Can you tell us a little bit about that? When will that be available? Do you have any other signature goodies in the works?
It should be dropping soon. The frame is super strong and it is blueberry anodized. I don’t have any other sig stuff in the works at the moment.

How are things with Snafu? Do you have anything in the works with them from trips to signature parts or anything like that?
Things are going chill just repping on flow. No trips that I know of in the works.

What’s up with DOWN these days? I feel like it has been a few weeks since I’ve seen an edit, which is weird.
Yeah, we’ve all been on the injured list at different times our camera broke so we had nothing to film with, but things are starting to look up again I’m back on my bike and everyone is pretty much healed plus my amigo Davey just purchased a new cam that we’ll all be filming on so more Down stuff on the way real soon!

Do you have any other sponsor news you are psyched on?
Yeah, I just got on INDEX Ink. Super stoked to be a part of the team.

I noticed you had a cast on your arm when I creeped your Facebook. What did you do? How long are you out for?
I broke my elbow filming in Vegas got caught slippin on a big hang tooth I’ve been out for three and a half months but I’m back on my bike now

What are your plans for the rest of the summer?
Just film as much as possible, work, and have good times.

Have you been working on any video parts or anything like that? When can we expect to see some fresh footage of you popping up in a video or even a fresh edit?
I’m working on a video part for The Hunt right now and I’m also gonna be filming an Index edit over the next month or so.

What have you been up to lately other than riding? Have you been working or going to school at all?
I’ve been working a lot cruising mountain bikes, fishing and chillaxing letting my elbow heal.

What’s the last song you heard, movie you watched or website you visited?
Last song I heard was some shitty Drake song on the radio, lol. Last movie would be Hangover 2, and website was facebook, haha.

Anything I missed you want to say?
Thanks to all my sponsors, family and friends for supporting me and helping me stay up! “Let the Good times Roll”
