Phil Jones Quits Guerra
Another Eastern-related brand looses a rider. On Monday it was Karl Poynter parting ways with Eastern and Ezra, and now Phil Jones has left Guerra. Both seem to reference the same concerns as their reason for leaving. Here is Phil’s statement:
“Hitting y’all up to say I quit Guerra BMX. Things were going in a direction I wasn’t expecting. It was cool being a part of it, but it’s time go. I have other things in life I want to focus on one mostly being Philthy Films. I have put out several edits of friends over the past couple years and want to produce as many more as possible. Myself along with others are going hard for the next Mixtape that is going to drop in the near future. Really stoked on the riding that has been captured so far. Keep an eye out for that. Peace.” -Phil Jones
Through The Lens: Eating Raw with Sam Schulte
Sam Schulte owns Tree Bikes which most of you have certainly heard of before and has quite the history in the BMX industry as an innovator and incredible product designer. Sam started Tree with the intent of creating parts that have solid thought behind them and builds products that are meant to last. He always has the consumer in mind and doesn’t feel right if he has to “sell” his products. Anyone that knows Tree knows that the stuff they make is 100% quality based and completely BMX to the core. On that note, anyone that knows Sam, knows that he has always had a unique outlook on life and truly lives according to his own rules and what he feels is right for his own life. There are a few people out there these days blazing their own path and making their own personal life choices and Sam Schulte is certainly one of them. He maintains a positive state of mind, carefully chooses what goes into his body and has a specific reason and purpose for doing so. Check out what motivates Sam to eat a fully raw diet and maybe learn a thing or two in the process.
