Hoffman – Big Air Poster and 2012 Product
“This year we did something a little different for our catalog. We made a giant poster with a sick photo on the front and our sweet product on the back. Serving two functions; showcasing our current year goods and making it easier for our shops/supporters to represent by posting it up on their wall. The poster is 24×18 and you will be able to find these posters in better bike shops around the country. Or you can send us $5 to cover shipping and we will send one out to you along with some stickers. Our 2012 bikes will be at our dock bright and early tomorrow and shipping to shops next week along with some P&A. Frames will be arriving later this month. You can send some cash to PO Box 18194 Oklahoma City OK 73154.” – Hoffman Bikes
Ride with Chris Hughes
“Chris Hughes of Mirraco and Dew Tour fame stopped in Grande Prairie between competitions to ride the local scene and put on a couple shows at Ernie’s Sports Experts.
Chris was joined by Peace Country native and Ernie’s BMX guru, Devin Szmata, who also rides for Mirraco BMX.
The weather was perfect and over 100 local BMX’ers enjoyed hanging out with Chris and Devin over the weekend.”

Kink Team Changes
It looks like Kink have made a few positive changes to their line up. They’ve bumped Gabe Brooks up to the AM team and bumped Tony Hamlin (who was on the pro team already, but now riding only Kink parts as well) and Ben Hittle up to the full factory pro team. About damn time those two got the pro card. Head over to the Kink site to get the low down from team manager Jay Roe along with a bike check with Ben. You can find that all right here.
Sneak Peek: Terrible One – Shawn “Elf” Walters “Salt City” Bars
Well, here’s a treat for you guys. Terrible One sent through a bit of an exclusive sneak peek of Shawn “Elf” Walters’ new “Salt City” signature 4 piece bars. These gems have an 8.2″ rise, 28″ width, 9 degrees of backsweep, 4 degrees of upsweep and a weight of 1LB. 12oz.. These new bars from T1 are made from multi-butted chromoly that’s post-weld heat-treated. They’ve even etched in cut line grooves so you aren’t hacking off that extra width all crooked and cut out some fancy T1 logos on the end caps. The Salt City bars will be available Winter 2011 with color options of black, Clear raw and Rust red. You know you love it.
Also, don’t forget that Elf is filming for the Killjoy video that, from what I’ve been hearing, is going to be damn good. You can keep up with the progress of the video and all of the guys in the video at SaltMob.blogspot.com.
