Well, here’s a bit of news I didn’t see coming! Cory Nastazio will have his own radio show on satellite radio thanks to Skee TV. Check out this video where he talks a little bit about what’s to come in the near future to a radio near you.

S&M – Andrew Schubert Welcome Edit
S&M just scooped up Andrew Schubert, and man did they make the right call! I’ve never even heard of this guy, but from this edit I can already he is potential to be a big deal in not too long. Sort of the same feeling I got when Devon Smillie first started getting noticed. He has every trick he does down so perfectly, everything looks simple. Keep an eye out for him, I’m sure he’ll be making some moves now with this new support.
Being a BMX Pro Vs. Having a “Real Job”
Head over to the Ride BMX website where a handful of pros and ex-pro riders discuss the value of college or working a real job over the “pro life”. It’s pretty crazy to think only a handful of riders really make enough money off riding to really support themselves, so if you’re interested in what these guys have to say about the topic, click here.
Catty Jam – 4th of July 2013 Video
Spotted this over on Can You Dig It. Check out this video Chris Bird put together from some of the laps he got in during the jam at Catty Woods on the 4th of July with his helmet cam. These are definitely some of the best trails in the world, so as you can imagine, even if the quality of the video is a little rough, it’s still a wild ride. Take a look!
“The video came out very shaky, but i put a few of my POV runs together from the weekend to show a few of the lines. Lines include: Rollers to 79, Fonzie, Dip Boom, Hook, Drunk and West Side. Enjoy!
Music – Canned Heat “On The Road Again”“
Redline – Glenn Salyers & Zack Gerber Edit
Redline’s two street destroyers Glenn Salyers and Zack Gerber got together and made one heck of a split edit. I don’t think I need to talk you into watching this one, just get to it!

I may be wrong, but I think that Lindsay Hale is the first girl to be officially repping for Cult. She shreds Austin’s plethora of spots with a smooth freecoaster style.
Zach Rogers Quits Eastern & Ezra
Eastern Bikes Best of 2012 – Zachery Rogers from Eastern Bikes on Vimeo.
It’s been quite a shake up this week at the Eastern umbrella of brands! Zack is the 3rd rider to depart from the camp, all claiming the same reasons about a “different direction” that they were looking to head in than the brands were going. Dust those sponsor me tapes off kids, this might be your chance! Here’s Zach’s statement:
“After many years under the EBIUS roof, I have decided it’s time to part ways. Unfortunately, I felt like the brands and I were moving in different directions. I would like to thank Mike Corley, Jon Byers, and everyone at Eastern and EZRA. I have a ton of good memories and friendships that will last a lifetime. Currently, I don’t have anything lined up, but I’m excited to see what the future has in store!”
