Andrew White Photo

Nashville’s Andrew White has been quickly becoming one of my favorite photographers in BMX. Over the last few years he has really developed into one really talented photographer and I think it’s safe to say he’s on track to be one of the recognizable names like Jeff Z, Rob Dolecki and Justin Kosman. Since I’ve been really digging his photos, I figured it was due time to find out a little bit more about the guy and check out some of his work. So here it is… Photos: Andrew White.

Product: Skavenger El Blanco Loco

January 7, 2012

Skavenger dropped some information on Tom White’s signature “El Blanco Loco” frame that will be dropping in March. You will be able to pick the frame up with a 75 degree head tube angle and two chainstay lengths; 20.75″ or 21″ top tube lengths with a 13.25″ rear end or 21″ top tube with a 14.25″ chainstay length. The El Blanco Loco will weigh in at 5.20 lbs. and be available in black. My guess the bike will also be available in white… since that makes since with the name and everything, right?

Some of the other features that you can find by checking out the photos right here would be unique bridges on the stays with a little extra beef, a Skavenger logo badge on the head tube, a gusset on the down tube/head tube junction, a machined bottom bracket that looks like it was designed for bottom bracket grinds / crooked grinds and removable seat stay mounts.

I’m 69% sure I’ve seen Devon do this in on of his past edits… or somebody else. Either way, this dude is butter.

“If you haven’t already noticed, Devon Smillie is really good. I’m not sure if this trick has ever been done, but Devon was doing them consistently while messing around on this flat rail at Woodward West. Pretty wild… Credit: Vital BMX”
