There’s a lot of people out there that think being a team manager is this rad and ideal job in the industry and in all reality, if you were to ask Kink‘s TM Jay Roe, he would admit that it is. However, there’s also a lot of responsibility that comes with the role and Jay is one of the few people who has handled the job like a champ these past few years. I figured it was time to shoot Jay a few questions to find out what his job is all about. Let’s take a look what he had to say…

Is This Bad Timing?

April 27, 2011

I came across an interesting tag that Darryl Tocco dropped on Twitter. It said #IsThisBadTiming, and for some reason I clicked on it. It lead me to the @IsThisBadTiming Twitter, which then lead me to the site, IsThisBadTiming.com. For some odd reason, there’s been chatter of this for about a month and I never even noticed until today.

I’m not really sure what it’s all about, but with the line up of what looks like Darryl Tocco, Brett Tocco, Tony Hamlin, Geoff Slattery, Aaron Smith, Jay Roe, Randy Brown, Lloyd Wright and a few others, there’s bound to be something big coming. The first real post read…

“So, here we go. We’ve all been talking about this for a long time, and we finally buckled down and did something about it. We aren’t trying to do anything crazy; some shirts here and there, and some videos to check out. The crew is made up of a close group of friends that just want to kick it and ride, and that crew will continue to grow and evolve. Hopefully you’ve checked out the promo on the front page, and continue to check the site for random updates and some video content. BT has created a lot of good times for our small fam over the years, and hopefully we can get a couple more years of fun out of doing whatever we’re feeling. Keep a smile, wherever you might find yourself. Bottoms up!”

I guess this means we will have to wait and see where this goes. There’s a video up on the site, but it’s currently locked. As soon as it becomes available I’ll give you a heads up.

Kink – Aaron and Jay Did America

April 14, 2011

Aaron Smith and Kink team manager, Jay Roe, made the drive from Long Beach, California to Rochester, New York. During the week long trip they made stops along the way and filmed the riding they got in between driving stretches. They met up with Sean Sexton and Jason Owens, Allen Twin, Tony Hamlin along the way. This was not filmed by Darryl Tocco.

The Best of the Kink House

April 12, 2011

Much like any BMX house, trails spot, setup, etc. All good things must come to an end. The Kink house in Long Beach was fairly short lived, but in the time they had out in California the team produced some real good riding. Darryl Tocco went through and put together some of the best clips they got while they were there to this new edit.

On the Horizon: Kink

February 12, 2010

There have been a lot of really notable things going on with Kink the last few years. Whether is has been their ever popular team, revamped product line, or the real quality video coming out of them from Darryl Tocco. Things have been looking real good for the brand lately and it seemed to be time to catch up with them to see what’s going on these days. I hit up TM Jay Roe to fill in the blanks…
