“Some scenery, some out-takes, and some clips captured during summer of 2011. The heat and humidity are oppressive down here in Tampa Bay. We thought we’d share some of that with you. Enjoy.” – Matt Coplon
Profile – Mike Meister Welcome Edit
“I was really looking forward to posting this up today. Hands down, Mike Meister is one of my favorite people to hang with as well as one of my favorite riders. He kills it on a bike, has a really good head on his shoulders, and is one of those people you can have a solid 4 hour conversation with an not get driven out. Looking forward to those long drives this summer with Mike on the next Profile trip.
It’s been a real treat hooking him up the past couple years…welcome, officially, to the Profile family Mike!” – Matt Coplon

Skatepark of Tampa – Salad Bowl Jam Edit

Industry: Matt Coplon
Matt Coplon is one of my favorite dudes that I’ve had the chance to work with on projects over the last few years. He’s always psyched and in a positive, motivated mood and helpful beyond belief. When I was thinking of the industry series, he was one of the first names that came to mind for hardest working people in BMX. Matt is an all around champ for Profile and Madera, handles all of the U.S distribution and team for Country Bikes and even finds time to work with The Skatepark of Tampa on all sorts of projects. Talk about hustle. This interview gives you some insight into his job and how he manages all of these things without losing his mind. Take a peek and then leave some love in the comments…
Name: Joseph Matthew Coplon
