BMX Catfish interview
Actual full name (no idea how to spell the last name haha)
Zachary Alexander Yankush
What exactly is your job?
I work as Team Manager for DK Bicycle Co. I also freelance as a professional BMX emcee
You travel a lot, where have you been in the last few months?
Sweet God. France, Germany, Belgium, The Netherlands, Utah, Oregon, California, Florida, and New York. Thats just September.
What is your favorite place you have been?
Hawaii is pretty rad. Any place in Europe is better than the states. Woodward is up there. I have a lot of favorites.
Craziest thing you have seen out on the roads?
Dead people. People on the verge of death. In Texas a big breasted stripped siphoned gas out of our van with her mouth while a hypodermic needle was stuck in her leg.
At your size, exactly how hard is it to keep girls off of you? (I meant height)
I didn’t know you knew about my “special” secret.
I usually just use a baseball bat.
Announcing at all of the contests, who do you think you could embarass the most infront of hundreds of thousands of people?
I would love to announce any internet bmx shit talker simply because I know they don’t ride bikes.
Why did you shut down catfishcatfish.com like two years ago?
i was too damn busy. It is back up now though. Spread the word.
CATFISHCATFISH.com
How many strippers noses have you broken?
Just one but it was an accident!!!
Where do you call “home”? Considering your on the road all the time it seems like?
Dayton, Ohio is where my house is. I also call home Youngstown. Thats my hoood son!
How much would you like to rub it in peoples faces that you get paid to travel the world?
Not a lot of people. Mostly people that told me riding BMX would get me no where in life. Fuck those people. I now have the opportunity to show young riders that you can make it happen!
I’ll never be as good as Scotty Cranmer but Im getting paid to be at all the same events he is. I just run my mouth. If I can do it…anyone out there can. Don’t give up the fight kids!
How many times have you been robbed!? (I see you had a little trouble over seas recently)
um..just once. Fuck Paris, France. 🙂
Whats the hottest tricks grandpa is throwing down now days?
Pick up any of the new Road Fools or Megatour 7. You will see.
Still loving the backwards manual though.
Your favorite song?
Quinn Semlings version of “Ass and titties..ASS ASS TITTY TITTY”
What are some big things you got planned or coming up?
Keep stoking kids on BMX. Chill at home a bit. Enjoy the hottub. I’ll be in Orlando for the Dew Tour Finals. Maybe a lil bit more of Europe this year. Then the fun starts all over again in 08!
What would you like to do someday down the road you havent been able to do?
Have an african american baby.
How many girls have claimed they have you baby?
At least 4.
Is there ever a time you wish you did something else and if so what?
Never. I love my life so much because BMX is my passion and I have the opportunity to get more kids involved in this awesome culture of ours.
Who all would you like to thank?
My mom and dad for always supporting me. DK and System cycle and everyone that works thre. Etnies,UGP,Konig wheels, and OBMX. Oh and anyone that rides bikes and smiles.
That would be catfish for you all.. Im super stoked he could be the first interview on here..
BMX Active!
So heres the deal.. www.bmxunion.com and www.bmxunion.net are how you can get here.
So since this is the first REAL post to the site, heres how this will work.. Send me cool links to videos, your photos, your blogs, you anything.. as long as it has something to do with bmx or its just really rad. I want people to enjoy this and have fun with it.
So features to the website!
To the left, we have the message box, it updates on its own if you post something it will be there, even though this is trying to bring riders together to get along, I have a feeling trash talking will be done.. but whatever we will go on.. feel free to post links to videos, your photobucket flickr whatever you find interesting and we can post it up on the site.. Have fun with it.
To the left, I put in random names and bmx related things in this generator and it will randomly show videos with those keywords on there, if you got a youtube page post up your name on the message box for your youtube, and we will add it to the list that way your stuff gets coverage and random stuff is all there. It is a lot of fun because theres a lot of real good videos that pop up.
To the left! All the popular websites that get updated a lot have RSS and other feeds, I am going to use those so you can see whats goin on with all the sites and check theres out from here. I think that is something nice because the who point of this is to bring everything together and get you to the good stuff?
Links! I know you got it, You just give me your link to your website, bmx, photography, video, whatever I will add it to the list, email me or post it up to the left! it will be good stuff when we get a lot of links for you to check out.
The Poll to the right! So since the website is new I think it is important to see what people want to see. So I added that, take a second to add your opinion.. it will be a good time..
Ads- I know I know, ads suck.. but heres the deal, if you want to advertise on here I will put up a photo link and promote your site like a champ if you want it up here. Similar to the come up, but until then I am using google ad sense, it doesnt generate much of anything, but with the money I will use it to help pay for the domain names and other random stuff for the website, its not for me.. I dont plan on making money off you guys, I will make stickers and shirts with the money or something sweet. Maybe even sponsor people? MAYBE who knows just a random idea.
bios and interviews! Okay heres another thing, If you want a bio posted of you, I dont care if your pro or just cruising, give me your info and we can maybe do a bio of you for the site.. Why not get readers some coverage? It will be a good time to meet random people all over the place. Maybe you will meet somone in your area you didnt know rode!
I think that covers the whole point of this website, So yeah let me know theres so much we can do with this website I really want to see how things go
