Calling the Shots with Zack Gerber and Spencer Foresman

March 27, 2014

Take a look at what went down during a late night Calling the Shots session Zack Gerber and Spencer Foresman got in! Better believe they drop some wild clips.

“Zack Gerber made the trip down to Orlando and made some magic with Spencer Foresman during a super late session. It’s pretty incredible what both of these guys can do on a bike using some really simple set-ups. We still can’t figure out how Spencer 720ed that wedge and Zack went up rail to 180 over- backwards manual with a free coaster. These two burnt he midnight oil for you guys.” – Network A

DTC – Girls Florida Trip

March 27, 2014

From what I was told by one of the girls involved, DTC stands for “Dong Thong Crew”. I’m not sure if it was a joke, or if that is actually what it means. That’s about all I have to add, I’ll let rider/editor Theresa K handle the rest:

“If you love bikes, babes and especially babes that ride bikes you’ll love this edit.
We like to refer to ourselves as DTC, and we are made up of two cold-blooded girls from Massachusetts and two sizzling hot Floridian girls who probably like to ride gators in their free time because Florida.
We managed to all get together for a week-long bmx trip in Florida and had an absolute blast riding together for an entire week and competing in the first ever girls class at the Merritt competition in the Florida bmx skatepark series.“- Theresa K

Madera – Nick Castillo 2014 Edit

March 27, 2014

Nick Castillo is a BEAST. Check out this fresh one for Madera that just dropped! The last clip is absolutely INSANE.

“Being 20 years old and having the build of a bulldozer Nick as no fear when it comes to his riding. With a jujitsu backround and a humble attitude. He never ceases to amaze me with his marital artist riding capabilities.
Words from Cody Bowers:
“My message is simple Nick Castillo is an all around badass. He’s not scared and he rides fast. I’ve watched this kid grow up and I’d have to say hes making the barbarians proud”

TOURPOSTERKOBE

Eclat is sending Nathan Williams, Sean Burns and Stevie Churchill to Japan in May! Get the full details below!

“Japan has always been on our radar of places to go, but in the past we always liked the idea of hitting places that had never had much previous coverage, we love the idea of searching and finding spots ourselves and we know that makes for a very special trip if everything goes to plan.

Instead of spending our time in Tokyo we have decided to get in the van and head cross country, our final destination is Kobe, and along the way we will be stopping at Osaka and Kyoto. From the 1st of May you can follow Nathan Williams, Stevie Churchill and Sean Burns as they gun it for Kobe, to follow just add us on instagram or check up the #eclatjapan tag.
