JB and The Homies 2: Back to Deutschlandia.

July 31, 2013

Check out this video Josh Betley put together for Felt from his trip to Germany he went on recently. You can find a ton of real good riding from him along with some of the people he hung out with while he was over there. Definitely one worth hitting that play button on!

“Every summer Felt’s German Distributor, Sport Import, invites me out to the, action packed, fun filled party that is Highway to Hill. This year was One for the Books. After the highway I spent a month visiting friends around the Country. It was the rainiest time out there yet, but I did get to ride a bunch of new spots and experience all the awesome Food/ Beer/ People. Thanks to Sport Important and everybody who I met up with, you kick butt.
Riders: Brian Sadecki, Jacob Panzek, Dennis Kicza, Timm Wiegmann, Fabian Bader, Mortiz Nussbaumer, Serg, Josh Betley.
A lot of these guys don’t ride for Felt, but we all ride, that’s what’s important to me.
The Music is No more words, by Berlin. Which, to my surprise, has nothing to do with Germany.
Filmed by Josh Betley, Timm Wiegmann, Brian Sadecki.

How To Barspin with a 12 Year Old

July 31, 2013

We’ve seen a few how to barspin videos before, but I feel like a lot of kids probably can’t relate to some older pro rider that’s been doing the trick forever, so this video featuring 12 year old Lochlainn O’Leary giving you a ton of advice and examples of how to get the trick done is pretty rad. It’s also kind of crazy to think how Lochlainn seems a lot older the way he handles this one. Check it!
