Catalina Trip

December 26, 2013

If you have Nick Steben on Snap Chat, there’s a good chance he’s been blowing your phone up with all sorts of videos from the shit he has been getting into in California lately. Check out this video from a trip to the Catalina Wine Mixer… Just kidding… The Catalina island with a few familiar faces. Not much for riding, but it looks like it was a good time!

“In the end of november Brandon Dosch, Hucker, Barspinner, Ricky Mosley and myself went on a day trip to Catalina Island. It was probably one of the funnest days i’ve had in a long time. We took the ferry over in the morning, rode some bmx, went diving and had some drinks before taking the ferry back to Newport in the afternoon. Nothing but good times with some good friends. Laid back day. I filmed some clips on my iPhone, GoPro, and 7D of the day and threw this together. Cheers!“

Through The Lens: Catching Up with Jackson Ratima

December 25, 2013

Another week, another TTL in the books. The thing I love most about the column is the fact that I can shoot it, write it, and share it within a matter of days. Don’t get me wrong, my heart is with print but something about that quick turnaround is addicting to me. This week I spent some time kicking it with the homies and catching up with Jackson Ratima. I’ve known Jackson for years now and one thing always remains consistent when it comes to him and his riding; he’s married to the streets. He is known for his creative spot selection as well as his unique trick list. I recently caught up with him during a mellow Sunday session and the following will keep you up-to-date on everything he’s got going on as of late and leading into the New Year.

Sunday – Idaho & Montana Trip Video

December 25, 2013

Gary Young, Alex Magallan and Chris Childs got to travel to Idaho and Montana thanks to Sunday. They found some great parks and some pretty rad street spots as well. Chris Childs rides like a bat out of hell, the fairly-freshly brakeless Gary Young handles business on everything he comes across, and Alex Magallan always has a unique vision when it comes to lines. Also shout out to the editor for using a Placebo song. You don’t hear that in BMX (or anywhere really) very often.

Fully Factory – 3/4 Power Hour

December 25, 2013

The Full Factory Distribution guys don’t need a full hour to pound out a power hour. You give them 45 minutes and they will give you this!

“Last September the Full Factory family was in Las Vegas for the Interbike trade show. One night a few of us snuck away from the group for a bit to get in some quality ramping time together. We went to Desert Breeze skatepark and pulled out the GoPros for about 45 minutes. This is what we came up with.
If you ever call Full Factory chances are you have talked to one of these guys.
