Product: Cinema Wheel Co. – P3 & 4140 Pegs

September 20, 2011

Of course you need pegs to go with those fresh Cinema wheels. The P3 and 4140 pegs are internally butted with a 34mm diameter and 100mm length. The difference? Well, the P3 pegs are made from steel and the 4140 pegs are heat-treated 4140 chromoly. What does that mean? The P3’s are a standard peg while the 4140 pegs will be lighter and real strong. Get your grind on!

Alex Bodnar’s Summer of 2011

September 20, 2011

“This summer has been the best one in a long time. So many good times and good riding went down. I worked really hard on this one and im pretty happy with how it turned out. Theres a few guest clips from a good friend of mine, Kelly Krone. He absolutely kills it and him making the trip out here from Illinois to stay with me for a few days was awesome! And i couldnt do it without my buddy matt duncan. Anything that wasnt filmed by my tripod, he filmed and anything that was filmed with my tripod, he stood behind it to make sure it didnt get hit by a car haha. Well I hope you guys have as much fun watching this as I did making this!” – Alex Bodnar
