The cover for DIG Issue 82 is out now. The cover is wild with Clint Reynolds airing over Ryan Corrigan down in the Caribbean. It sounds like I’ve got 4 pages of product that I wrote up in this issue as well. You can find out more about the issue and how to get your hands on a copy RIGHT HERE.
Industry: Brian Tunney
Brian’s section from the “Same Thing Daily 2” video that came out a year ago. You can check out the rest by picking up a copy at SameThingDaily.Blogspot.com.
Brian Tunney is one of those guys who I think is a real good model to follow when it comes to working in the media side of the industry. Brian has had all sorts of jobs from being a pro rider, contributor to magazines, judging contests, and even some time as a team manager. These days he’s full-timing it at ESPN handling their action sports content. I figured it would be cool to find out a little bit more about his line of work and get a little background on how he got to where he is today. As you can see above, Brian decided to drop his latest part from the dvd “Same Thing Daily 2” to go along with this, so don’t forget to check out the rest of that video. All right, here’s what Brian has to say…

Scottish Bike Show Flyer
“With the Scottish Bike Show now only a week away, taking place on the 16th and 17th April at the SECC in Glasgow, Unit 23, BSD and Dig magazine are working hard on final preparations for the show.
BSD team riders including Kriss Kyle, Chaz Mailey and Dan Paley along with guest riders Niki Croft, Alex Donnachie and more will be performing riding demos throughout the weekend on a custom ramp course made for the event by Unit 23.
The riders will be doing demos every hour on the hour from 11am throughout the day. BSD, Dig magazine and Unit 23 will also have a stand at the show where you will be able to meet some of the riders and purchase BMX parts from the Unit 23 shop.
Tickets to the show can be purchased from www.ticketsoup.com or at the door on the day.” – BSD

DIG – Repo: 2011 Out For Justice Jam
Rob Dolecki was on hand at the Out For Justice Jam that went down at FDR. There’s a bunch of photos from the day over on the DIG site.
The Official BSD Jam 2011 Edit
“Every year BSD holds a jam at Unit 23 skatepark, 2010 was different, this didn’t happen. There was a very good reason for this. With the help of Nike 6.0, a team of dedicated workers and a lot of blood, sweat and sleepless nights, Hall 2 at Unit 23 underwent an amazing transformation. Dave Sowerby created a new design and over a period of about two months, the old park was ripped out and rebuilt. The result being a rider’s paradise.
Given the promise of such a park, BSD felt it was only right to postpone the jam until the new set-up was ready.
Thanks to Nike 6.0 and Unit 23 skatepark without whom this jam would not have been possible.
Filmed by Dave Sowerby and John Bailey.
