Monster at the 2012 Vans Rebel Jam

October 10, 2012

I spotted Will Stroud in some of the past highlight reels so I had a feeling Monster would be dropping a dialed edit from the Vans Rebel Jam. Needless to say, this turned out so good.

“The Monster team dominated the Rebel Jam Street and Park contests in beautiful Tossa de Mar, Spain. England’s Dan Lacey took 1st in street, Australia’s Andy Buckworth took 1st in Park Hard Trick and France’s Kevin Kalkoff took first in Park Best Style. It was a great time on the beach with the Monster BMX team.”

The Factory at the 2012 Minnesota State Fair

October 10, 2012

Every year at the Minnesota State Fair, 3rd Lair Skatepark puts on BMX and skateboard shows for the thousands or thousands of people who are there. This year, the Twin Cities Fantasy Factory crew joined up with the 3rd Lair guys to produce an even bigger show than they have in the past. This is a look at all the wild riding they threw down for the crowds. Awesome.

“The Factory is back again at the largest fair in the country, the Minnesota State Fair. This year we’ve got a bigger course, bigger tricks, and bigger crowds! The riders step it up in a big way every year, this year is no exception.
