Erik Wichmann “Incessant”

January 21, 2014

Here’s one we had sent in from a scene video out in Oregon called “Incessant”! Above we have Erik Wichmann who brings plenty of grinds and some freecoaster action to his section that’s well worth check out!

“The video, INCESSANT, is a going away edit I made for my home town. I’ve grown up here, I’ve finished school, and it is time to meet my future. I have so much love for all my friends here, and I just had to leave them with something. This is the first of the four main sections in the video. Erik Wichmann put in a lot of time in front of the lens to make this happen. All the clips for INCESSANT were from throughout the year, 2013. I’ve watched Erik progress faster than anyone else in our scene this last year. Not only has he progressed faster, but he has stayed truest to his style and has actively resisted the urge to bite any other locals. He’s the most technical rider in the area; that is why his part is the first of the four in the video, and first to be posted online. If anyone would like the full feature please contact. Donations are being taken for the full feature. These donations are to be passed along to our fallen friend, Luke Esgate’s family, as contribution towards a memorial bench to be placed in the new Washington-Jefferson Skatepark being built by Dreamland in Eugene, OR.” – Chris Craighead

Here’s one I’m sure a TON of you are stoked to hear… Erik Elstran has been bumped up to the Sunday Bikes PRO team! Erik is hands down one of the most creative and original BMX riders in the world and this spot on the team has been more than well deserved and a long time coming! Check out a few words from team manager, Walter Pieringer, below! I can’t wait for some fresh Erik Elstran clips to surface…

“I am happy to announce that Sunday’s favorite lunatic (well, one of our favorite lunatics), Erik Elstran, is now a member of the Sunday Pro Team. Erik’s unique and creative riding is matched only by his unique and creative personality – he is one crazy dude, there’s no doubt about it, but in the best possible way. Everyone at over here at Sunday is beyond excited to have more opportunities to work and travel with Erik now that he’s gotten the bump to pro. This is gonna be awesome.” – Walter Pieringer, Sunday TM

Joris Coulomb Bumped Up To Subrosa Pro Team

January 20, 2014

Here’s some news I had a feeling we would be seeing someday! Joris Coulomb has gotten the very well deserved bump up to the Subrosa PRO TEAM! This should mean we’ll be seeing a TON more from him in 2014, so get stoked. Until then, check out a few words about the news below!

“Very stoked to announce that Subrosa Skeleton Crew rider Joris Coulomb is getting the bump up to the Subrosa Pro Team. Joris has been repping Subrosa hard since his addition to the Skeleton Crew a little over a year ago. Since then he’s been on a few trips with the team, and even filmed a full section for our first full-length video Get Used To It. Look for more from Joris and Subrosa in the near future… for now, check out his G.U.T.I. section below.” – Ryan Sher

Here’s some awesome news. It looks like Grant Castelluzzo will be taking on an even bigger role with Mutiny Bikes. Not only will he be riding for the pro team, but he’s also going to be handling the team manager position as well! Expect this to lead to some good things for sure.

“After getting the bump up to the pro team a few weeks ago, Grant is also going to be our new team manager for 2014. This is going be a huge asset for us, Grant and I already have a lot of stuff planned for the year and I can not wait for it to all come to fruition so we can share it with you. More soon…..” – Gaz Sanders
