Top 3’s – Mark Mulville

September 26, 2014

All photos by Josh McElwee

It’s always a good day when we get some amazing photos dropped into the inbox! The other day our good friend, Josh McElwee, hit us up with a handful of Mark Mulville photos that he was sitting on from a project that fell through! As always with Josh’s work, they were top notch so there was no way we could pass them up! We figured it was a perfect excuse to hit up Mark with a classic round of Top 3’s to find out a little bit more about him! Let’s check out these photos and see what Mark had to say after the jump!

Subrosa – Tom Smith: On & Off

September 26, 2014

Here’s one to start your weekend off right! Subrosa dropped this new video featuring Tom Smith absolutely crushing it on spots around Austin, Texas, but it also gives us some insight into his life off his bike! I had no idea he was a father and chef! This is one you gotta check out!

“Get to know Subrosa Skeleton Crew rider Tom Smith on and off his bike in new series from Subrosa simply titled, “On & Off”.

We inlisted the help of Jememie Infelise and he did a killer job capturing Tom from riding his favorite spots, to hangin with his boy and more.

Watch Tom shred, and stick around to see what Tom is about when he’s not destroying the Austin streets.

Huge thanks to Tom for shreddin, and Jeremie for filmin and putting this together for us.

Leon Hoppe on Radio Bikes

September 26, 2014

radio-leon-hoppe

We have been hearing that Radio Bikes was going to be making some moves here and it looks like they’re well on their way based off this news! They have just added the young gun shredder from Germany, Leon Hoppe, to their time! Expect to see plenty more from him in the future!

“We would like to officially announce that 17 year old German street slayer Leon Hoppe has just joined the Radio Bikes team!

Leon is part of the new generation of hugely talented technical street riders bursting out of Germany at the moment and we couldn’t be more stoked to welcome him in to the Radio family. Along with the ability to land some of the most un-thinkable tricks with ease, Leon has an attitude towards riding that makes him the perfect addition towards the team and we can’t wait to start going on trips with him.

Leon came into the Radio office today to build up a brand new setup including our Toren frame, Siren Bar and some 2015 prototype parts you will be hearing about real soon. We will be working closely with Leon and the rest of the Radio Bikes team on developing our new range for next year including a our 2016 line of complete bikes, a new frame, fork, freecoaster hub and more…

You will be able to see Leon killing it for us at the WTP Autumn Session contest next weekend in Trier and on team trips and projects we have planned for this year.”

Cory Nastazio might have had a pretty rough start in BMX with stealing a bike to just ride, but karma caught up with him and ever since he’s been killing it! Check out his story as to how he got into BMX right here.

“From rich to hood rich, BMX dirt jumping legend Cory Nastazio spares no details in this classic tale of how to steal a bicycle, break both collarbones at once and become a legend in the trailer park.” – Network A

September 26, 2014

Here’s a fresh one we spotted over on The Merged! The guys at The Daily Grind are working on a freecoaster of their own that I’d imagine will be getting some work done internally to take some serious abuse. It would appear to be working with the Ezra system, so we can expect it to be freecoaster and cassette compatible!

ABQ DNV – Erie Session

September 26, 2014

We’re always looking forward to Friday, not just for the weekend, but for the new ABQ DNV video! Here’s a fresh one Mario Carrasco just sent through from a session at the Erie skatepark! This place looks amazing to ride and the whole crew threw down! Enjoy!

“Erie Skateapark was one of the first street league style parks the company built in Colorado and this place is so much fun! It has everything you need from hubbas, flat rails, ledges everything you could possibly need. So I set out a mass text and got a lot of the guys from the greater Denver area to link up and have a great session at one of my favorite parks in Denver. Check it out these guys put in some decent work this night at the park.
