Big Toys – Alexander “Shurva” Rudenko Fall 2013 Edit
Here’s a dialed new one from Sunday, Odyssey and G-Sport‘s connect over in the Ukraine through Big Toys, Alexander “Shurva” Rudenko! This time around Shurva comes through with some heavy barspin and whip combos that is well worth a look. I’d love to see this dude play Stevie Churchill in a game of bike. I feel like they have super similar styles.
G-Sport – Garrett Reeves: MD to CA
Garrett Reeves coming in HOT with some wild new footage for G-Sport from a recent trip to Baltimore. This is definitely one video you need to check out!
“Garrett and I took a short trip to ride the city of Baltimore, Maryland and stack some footage. Baltimore is one of the cities that Garrett rode the most growing up, so now that he resides in Long Beach, CA, it was rad to see him back on home field so to speak. Garrett may be a Long Beach transplant, but I think this video does a good job at showing how his wallride-filled, spot-oriented style of riding was shaped by the East Coast architecture he grew up riding.” – Zach Krejmas

The Pleg 2 core runs 3/4′s of the length of the sleeve so direct damage to the core’s end can be avoided, simplifying sleeve removal and maintaining socket fit.
