Get a look at Gary’s brand new Sunday build and see him flow a bowl the way that only Gary can.
Product: Odyssey – Gary Young 2 Grip – Out Now
The second version of Gary Young’s signature grip from Odyssey is OUT NOW. This grap has a similar look to his original grip with the thinner outsides and the thick inside for extra comfort.

Woodward Copper Remix Opening
Over the weekend, Woodward Copper unveiled their all new setup and figured they would invite a few friends like Gary Young, Morgan Wade, Zack Warden and Adam Baker out to ride with the campers and visitors. Check out this video Ride BMX dropped from the event. Looks like that place came out amazing!
“Nested into the Copper Mountain Resort area, Woodward has built an incredible multi-level skatepark/training facility. This weekend, Woodward Copper held a “Remix” event promoting their new park remodel. They’ve added a street course, a wooden pump track upstairs and a one of a kind foam setup, in addition to their existing bowl. Woodward invited us out along with Gary Young, Morgan Wade, Zack Warden and Adam Baker to come shred and help get the locals psyched on their new and improved “Barn.”” – Ride BMX

Photogallery: Texas Toast Jam 2013
Over the weekend, the 3rd annual Texas Toast Jam invaded Austin, Texas. Riders from all around the world made the voyage to this BMX mecca with nothing but good times in sight. Between the actual contests, the after parties all of the amazing people who were in town for the weekend and the weather holding out, the weekend was the perfect example of what BMX is all about — having fun.
After missing out the past two years, I decided there was no way in hell that I could possibly miss this one. I finally had things line up and I was able to make my first trip to Austin happen, and it was one of the best experiences I could have had.
I’m sure over the past few days you have seen a ton of coverage from the videos and photos that have surfaced. I quickly decided once I saw 20+ cameras out at all times, that I was going to make this trip a vacation and not about work. I took the slacker route and took my time to get my photos together instead of rushing to be the first one with coverage from the event.
After sifting through the 350+ photos I had on my memory card, I was able to narrow it down to 34 of my favorite photos I shot from the weekend where I compiled them into a photogallery for your viewing pleasure. Let’s take a peek!
Gary Young Conquers the Gauntlet of Death
Gary Young Conquers The Gauntlet of Death – More BMX Videos
I don’t want to say this video doesn’t do justice, but I feel like you really don’t understand how insanely hard the Gauntlet of Death was this year. Gary probably tried to get it done 15+ times and only 3 or 4 guys actually got to the curved wall to curved wall. Either way, this video shows you him taking the course like a champ and getting it done. I even managed to become an obstacle at the end when I became the air bag for him to slow down, haha. Excellent. Hell yeah, Gary!
“Gary Young’s versatile riding style lent itself well to The Gauntlet of Death at this years Texas Toast. Everyone was getting sent on that last wall-to-wall, but Gary came through with the goods.“
