Calvin Kosovich & Travis Hughes – Skate Spots App Session

July 2, 2020

Sometimes you need a little help finding some fresh spots to ride! Calvin Kosovich and Travis Hughes decided to give the Skate Spots App a try to find a few new ones to stack some clips on! Here’s a raw cut Our BMX uploaded from the day of riding they got in! Hit play to see what they came across and what got thrown down!

“Nothing beats hitting some unfamiliar streets with your homies and seeing what you find. Putting in the work to discover new spots is fun and feels super rewarding when you uncover a gem. Then there are the days where you really want to just ride something and may not feel like rolling the dice and potentially come up empty handed exploring—which is where the Skate Spots App comes in. Some people may curse its very existence, while others live by it. We meet up with Calvin Kosovich and Travis Hughes for a day of riding and we decided to try something new and picked spots off the App—and of course we found some off the map spots along the way as well. It was a long day and we had multiple guests meet up throughout, including Dakota Roche, Andrew Castaneda, Tony Neyer, and Aaron Brenner.” – Our BMX
