Dean Dickinson – Bone Deth from Bone Deth Video WasteLand on Vimeo.
Dean Dickinson is now on the Bone Deth Deadman team, and his welcome edit continues in classic Bone Deth tradition with a bikini clad girl in some odd scenarios. On the riding side of things, Dean drops in on all sorts of scary stuff and I already mentioned a girl in a bikini, so are you still reading this?
Typically when I shoot photos these days it’s for a specific purpose. Either for a print project, an ESPN feature, something for my column, something for an ad, catalog or anything else a company might need photos for etc. In some cases though I have shot photos over the years that never end up going anywhere but my hard drive. Typically it’s just that they become leftovers and aren’t needed at the moment. Other reasons include riders changing sponsors. For example, if you shoot a rider that is wearing a pair of Etnies and then they get sponsored by Vans you can’t really do anything with the photo of them wearing the Etnies anymore. It sucks but that’s just how it works. Either way though, that is why I love doing this column because I have complete creative control meaning that I get to finally give some of these photos a home and give them a bit of shine-time.
It looks like Odyssey have appointed Dean Dickinson as the Project Manager for the 2013 Texas Toast Jam. This is awesome for two reasons… One, because Dean knows how to throw a party and two, because that means there’s for sure going to be another Texas Toast Jam! Get stoked.
“We’ve brought on our friend and trusted industry promoter of awesomeness; Dean Dickinson, to project manage this years TEXAS TOAST JAM.
Dean has organized countless jams and events, worked with Justin Kosman on THE HUNT project in 2012, PUT TOGETHER A BOOK and has ridden every pool on earth (probably). Dean is just the person for this role and we are stoked to have him on board. While Dean will be handling the bulk of the planning and organizing for this years Texas Toast Jam, Taj Mihelich will still be working close at hand as Toast’s overall source of guidance and inspiration for 2013.
DEAN has hit the ground running and plans for TTJ 2013 are already underway.
If you wish to be a part of this years Texas Toast Jam, please contact Dean at: DEAND@ODYSSEYBMX.COM
Warning: It’s gonna be awesome again!”
Back in September I was talking to Shajn Raines at Interbike about some of the stuff he was working on at the time. Shajn had mentioned that himself and a good number of the Bone Deth crew had been filming with Chris Crawford for the new “Rotten” video that Chris was working on with a bunch of people. Then a few days after Interbike, a trailer dropped giving everyone a glimpse of what was to come and needless to say, it looked like it was going to be absolutely wild. I know I was definitely looking forward to it.
Finally, at the end of January, the 2nd trailer dropped letting everyone see a little more with what was to come. I knew the video was getting close to completion, so I figured it would be a good time to get ahold of Chris to find out just what to expect from this video and when we can expect it to drop. Check out what he had to say!

Sean Fontenot mentioned to me that we should check out the Sunken City in San Pedro, CA. Apparently this is an old city block from the 1930’s that sank into the Pacific Ocean. This was also the shot location of “The Big Lebowski” when they dump Donnie’s ashes into the ocean.
