Alex Platt on Volume Bikes
It looks like Alex Platt has found himself a new home on Volume Bikes. Check out a few word about the news by TM, Mike Mastroni.
“Really excited about this. One of my long time best buds and current roommate, Alex Platt is now officially on board. We went out literally yesterday and shot this crazy hop over DP web ad to welcome him to the team in style. Alex is definitely a one of a kind rider if there ever was one, and I’m very proud to have him on the team. 2013 is gonna be a damn good year. Bang Bang.”

Tom “Sketchie” Isted at Mount Hawke
I’m not sure how this guy has the nickname “Sketchie” when clearly he’s dialed as all hell. Maybe it’s like calling a fat guy tiny or something? I don’t know. Either way, this is real good!
“A short video of Tom Isted riding at Mount Hawke skatepark in Cornwall. Tom’s style of riding is to send it and see what happens. Im sure he has someone watching over him as he should be seriously injured by now with some of the crashes he has. He always gets up and tries again! Watch out for videos of Tom in the future!

Through The Lens: A Different Perspective #3
As a photographer I am always searching out ways to set myself apart and create content that people will be into. It’s one of the biggest challenges and one of the hardest parts about it to be honest, especially these days when everyone has a camera of some sort with them on a regular basis whether it is a digi-cam or an iphone and life is being documented by the minute. It’s a mix of doing what makes you happy and trying to figure out what will make viewers happy as well. That’s where this new “A different perspective” idea came from. Over the years I have interviewed tons of pro riders about anything and everything except one important topic. What is it like from their perspective to go out and shoot with a photographer? What it is that makes one person better to shoot with than others? I have always wondered about what goes on inside a riders mind before they prepare to shoot a crazy banger and put all of their trust into the photographer. See what Connor Lodes, Christian Rigal and Ronnie Napolitan all had to say for the third edition of “A different perspective.”
Wethepeople – Josh Heino “ETC”
One thing I’ve been reminded of with these old sections from the “ETC” video that Wethepeople have been uploading is how legendary their team was in 2004. They’ve just uploaded Josh Heino’s section for your viewing pleasure and you better believe I hope you hit that play button.
“The last part on the Wethepeople ETC video first released in 2004. Josh Heino ripped apart most of California and finsihed off the video in true beast mode.
