Highway To Hill 2012
It looks like the Zwanzig Zoll crew rolled deep into this years Highway To Hill contest. They’ve got pretty much everything covered from this one which is rad. Check out riding from a wholeeeee bunch of real good riders in this one. Looks like the contest went off real well and there was a hell of a crowd filled with good looking women.

Jess Cini 2012 Edit
Would you imagine that? Yet another insanely talented rider from Australia! I really need to figure out what’s going on down there…
“Headed up to Jess’ place for a couple of days and smashed out 90% of these clips with him, and threw in a couple of extra’s he scored up in QLD. Jess is a gun for his age and his a bright future in BMX. He currently rides for condemned bike co, LKI and X-Rated Helmets.

Photogallery: Dream Warriors
The other week a trailer for a video called “Dream Warriors” popped up. It featured a bunch of riders I had never heard of from Kansas. I was really stoked on it since it appeared to be filmed and edited real well and loaded with really good riding. I didn’t know much about it, but I definitely wanted to check it out.
Then the other day, to my surprise, the full video was released online. This 40 minute video lived up to exactly what I was hoping for when I saw the trailer. If you haven’t had a chance to check it out, make sure you check it out right here or just check it out at the end of this photogallery we’ve got for you.
Photographer Bryce Randol recently hit me up with a bunch of shots from the premiere jam for “Dream Warriors” and we figured it would be rad to do a gallery with them. Below you can check out a few words from Bryce and get the link for the gallery…
“The BMX scene in the Kansas City area has done nothing but grow over the past several years. Riders are traveling further and venturing outside of their local spots to ride, this was evident at The Dream Warriors video premiere this past weekend. Kyle Wedd, Hunter Wright, Damon Mar, and Adam Reed hosted a jam in honor of the culmination of a year and a half of hard work put in by Eric Rhodes and everyone who had a part in the video.
There could be no better place to hold such an event; Their yard is packed with home made ramps, a box jump with a satellite dish hip, rails concreted into the ground, grind boxes, and even a small concrete kicker. They held a best trick contest on each of the yards obstacles, making for some ridiculous tricks (and trick attempts). The overall vibe of the day was amazing, featuring loud music, beverages, laughs, and great video to end the night.

Angie Marino on TSG
Angie Marino is riding a little safer these days…
“TSG further expands its female team and is proud to announce the latest addition in BMX: Welcome to the international pro team, Angie Marino!
Angie Marino is one of the best female BMXers in the world and one of the most influential voices of female BMX riding. Founder of Yeah Zine (YeahZine.com), an online site and printed mag for girl BMXers, Angie publishes girl BMX content and motivates girls to go riding. She is a true role model and spreads the good words of BMX from a girls point of view.
Angie was hooked on riding the minute she could ride without training wheels and started racing at a young age. After a break of some couple years she picked it up again and started riding skateparks and trails. Today Angie travels the world for contests and promotes girl BMX riding. She just ended up 3rd at the FISE in Montpellier.
“Angie is a great role model in the girl BMX scene as she is a passionate and talented bike rider. This makes her the perfect fit to join and enrich our pro team. She will definitely play an important role for our women’s protection program. I am stoked that our male dominated BMX team with Brian Hunt, Ricardo Laguna, Alessandro Barbero, Patrick Guimez and Markus Hampl now gets some female flavour”, says Nadja Herger communication manager at TSG.
Angie rides with the Nipper Maxi helmet and the Shinguard BMX Tailwhip protector.
