Here’s a video from a recent team trip the crew took hitting up a bunch of parks, ditches and even some mountain bike action. Hit play and take a look at 23 minutes of raw footage from the trip.
“Big road trip with the squad!

Latane Coghill Sponsor Tape (2001/2002)
It’s crazy to think this is 20 years old! Alright, kids. Here’s one from back before Youtube and when the internet wasn’t quite as easy to use, and making videos were still a real process! Between filming, capturing the footage to a computer and editing on the computer that definitely didn’t have enough power, riders would make sponsor tapes and send them in the mail (not email) to brands in hopes of them getting noticed. Here’s an example that Powers Bike Shop uploaded giving us a look at Latane Coghill‘s sponsor tape from around 2001 / 2002! This one is packed with dialed riding and it’s easy to see just why he was getting noticed! What’s awesome is that Latane is still out crushing it in 2021 and is better than ever, and we’re sure the videos he’s in a hell of a lot easier to make, haha. Check it!
Hoffman Bikes – Ryan Barrett (2004)
Now this is what we’re talking about! Snakebite uploaded Ryan Barrett‘s section from the Hoffman Bikes video that came out back in 2004!This section is a mix of street, park and dirt clips where Ryan absolutely crushes it on everything. Big rails, big fufanus, stretched nothings on dirt and much, much more. A rider that can throw down on everything is pretty uncommon these days, but Ryan did it all back in the day!
