Oh wow… This is incredible. Check out Adrien Lecomte getting some riding time in some very unique spots around Lyon, France for Figure and Vans. This is a definite MUST SEE. Everything from the riding to the spots and filming and editing is great.

Javaun Crane-Bonnell sent through his latest edit to check out and I’m stoked on it. There’s a bunch of real unique clips in this and it looks like, even though some of the tricks stressed him out, he was having a real good time. I definitely think you should check this out because you will get stoked on it.
Here’s a fresh how-to on 180 barspins from Craig Passero courtesy of TCU. Give this a watch and then go send a few.

Head injuries are no joke. Vin Crispino gives you the story about what he had to go through due to the head injury he sustained this past summer. This is pretty graphic, but I think if you’re one of those people who thinks helmets are a waste of money, this might change your mind. Check it out!
“Last March, Skavenger rider and Staten Island, N.Y. resident Vin Crispino attempted to icepick a rail for a photo. He had already grinded the rail and pulled it before. On the second try, he landed in a double peg instead of an icepick and crashed on his head. He fractured bones in his face and skull, and suffered bleeding on his brain. To relieve the pressure in his brain, doctors removed part of his skull, and he underwent two brain surgeries. Eventually, Crispino recovered, and he now advocates for the use of helmets in BMX. In the above video, Crispino details his crash, his surgeries, and the route he took back to recovery. Video by Matt Brown.” – ESPN BMX
If you are in Australia and live near the Kempsey skatepark, I highly advise you make it out to the 4th annual Blake Butterfield Memorial Jam on Sunday, January 27th! Not only is it a day full of good riding, good people, good music and good times, but it’s for a good cause. Every year they raise money for the Westmead Childrens Hospital in Sydney and so far they’ve raise $2,000.00 from the past events. Make your way there, you won’t be disappointed.
Rest in Peace, Blake!
Andrew Lazaruk has parted ways with his long time sponsor Macneil. It doesn’t specify why he has made the decision whether it’s just him stepping out of the light or if he has a new opportunity. I guess only time will tell. I hope we see more of Andrew in the future.
“Andrew Lazaruk has been riding for MacNeil for years, long before he was officially moved to the pro team. We’ve all enjoyed riding and partying with him at home and on the road. It’s always fun when Laser’s around so we want thank him for the good times and all of his help along the way. Best of luck in the future Lazerdick. See you at the trails.” – Macneil
“Thanks a ton to everyone at MacNeil! It’s been an awesome time, from the trips to just just getting to meet and hang out with everybody involved. Definitely made some memories that will last a life time over the past couple years. I’m honored I had the chance to ride for and represent Canada’s only BMX company. All good things have to end though, so I’m excited for whatever may come next. Thanks again, best of luck in the future!” – Andrew Lazaruk
