Adam Banton Bike Check
Head over to the Eastern Bikes website to get a closer look at Adam Banton’s current front brake unit! Looks like she’s been getting plenty of use but holding up strong.
Bjorn “Bommel” Mager – Street Session @ Mellowpark
Bjorn “Bommel” Mager recently spent some time putting his pegs to work all over Mellowpark from the actual ramps to anything they had rideable on the property. This video is filled with awesome riding and the filming and editing is so good.

Long Island & PA Trails Trips 2012
Spotted this gem over on Can You Dig It. Check out this video Kyle Hibbard put together of him and the Endwell guys getting some time in at their trails along with some of Pennsylvania’s finest. So good!
“An edit showing some of the good times we had on some trips we took this summer. I was really enjoying the sounds of the tires/woods so I decided to skip the music and keep it simple.” – Kyle Hibbard
Fox Racing – The Build
I knew there was a new Fox Racing headquarters. What I didn’t realize is they stripped their original building all the way down and rebuilt the entire place into the state of the art setup they wanted. This video gives you a look at the whole process from tear down to rebuild and finish which is absolutely amazing. Must be nice having that kind of money! haha.
“From tear down to re-build, witness the 11 month construction of the new Fox Head Global Headquarters. Enjoy.

Lifer BMX at Motion Ramp Park
It doesn’t sound like the Lifer BMX crew had much luck actually getting to Motion Ramp Park, but it does look like they were lucky enough to stack a ton of awesome clips from the day for this new edit. Check it!
“Here’s the first in a series of edits that Extreme will be making with Lifer BMX. We planned to spend the day at Motion to get some clips of the team riding but a day soon turned into a few hours after what would have normally been a simple two hour drive soon turned into a five hour mission after becomng stuck in traffic and then a 80 mph blow out on the M5 left us on the side of the road.
Once finally making it to Motion the guys didn’t hang about and made the most of the park.
Hope you enjoy!

Through The Lens: Unseen
Typically when I shoot photos these days it’s for a specific purpose. Either for a print project, an ESPN feature, something for my column, something for an ad, catalog or anything else a company might need photos for etc. In some cases though I have shot photos over the years that never end up going anywhere but my hard drive. Typically it’s just that they become leftovers and aren’t needed at the moment. Other reasons include riders changing sponsors. For example, if you shoot a rider that is wearing a pair of Etnies and then they get sponsored by Vans you can’t really do anything with the photo of them wearing the Etnies anymore. It sucks but that’s just how it works. Either way though, that is why I love doing this column because I have complete creative control meaning that I get to finally give some of these photos a home and give them a bit of shine-time.
