Dan Foley #SummerSelfie
What can be said about Dan Foley that hasn’t been said already? His style has been highly regarded for years now, and it’s already been covered that he knows what he’s doing behind the lens as well. His new #SummerSelfie edit is more of all of that goodness that you want. I don’t need to convince you to watch it, because you probably already are and quit reading this a sentence or two ago.
Nate Richter’s Dreamline 2013 Video
So the story goes that Nate Richter flew out to Red Bull’s Dreamline event to film it for The Come Up, only to find out that media passes were required and that he did not have one, so the camera had to go off pretty fast. Here is what he got before the plug got pulled.
Sasha Melnikov Inside BMX x Kings Bikes Edit

Sasha Melnikov is an amazing rider from Ukraine that has so much skill and style. He also is one of the few guys I see still doing the indian slider. It really stood out from the other edits, and in a good way!

Ruan Mosca “Getting away from my city” Edit
We could all use a break from the same old same old, right? Ruan Mosca sure felt that way, so he got out of his city and on to some fresh territory. Good thing for us that someone was around to film it, as Ruan took advantage of the new spots and put together a banging video.
Through The Lens: Film Versus Digital
For this week I wanted to do a feature on the film vs. digital debate. The battle began back in 1994 when digital photography was introduced on a consumer level and has been a topic of discussion between photographers for years now. When I started out as a photographer the only thing that I shot was film. It’s been well over a decade and I still shoot film, but in a very personal way. I don’t typically shoot film for my regular workflow but I try to mix it up when I have the chance to, especially while I am traveling in a new place. It’s all a personal choice and you like what you like but it is nice to know that film is here to stay for the long haul. There are too many people that enjoy film photography too much to get rid of it. The die-hards will do whatever it takes to keep the medium alive and I want to help contribute to that movement. I decided to breakdown a few things and speak my mind for a bit on the topic so, enjoy. This is one of those columns topics that I can’t believe I haven’t written about yet after all of this time and what better time to start than now?
A Story About KHE Bikes
David Zu Elfe just sent through this excellent documentary he put together about KHE Bikes featuring the companies owner, Tomas Goring, talking about how it all started and looking at the innovative products they have released over the years from the first freecoaster wheels they ddi up through completes, tires, and the new Affix system. This is a great history lesson and well worth a watch.
“1988, we started KHEbikes as a small company to build parts the companies didn’t make, to improve our riding on our own.
2013, KHEbikes has led awesome revolutions, but we never lost the basic intention: Progression.
Starring Thomas Göring as narrator, we bring you into our world. The world of KHEbikes.”
