2012 Welcome Jam Video

October 8, 2012

[video_widget]

Every year (except for last year) the Potoczny family open up their yard to riders from all over the world to come ride and have a good time at the trails that Mark and Mike Potoczny built in their woods. This year the Welcome Jam was brought back after a years hiatus to continue the good times. Since I wasn’t fortunate enough to make the voyage down to Pennsylvania for this one like I did two years ago, I had Chris Bird capture everything that went down on his camera. Take a peek if you’re into trails and good times since that’s what the Welcome Jam is all about!

2012 Welcome Jam Helmet Cam Preview

September 25, 2012

If there’s one place in this world I wish I could be on Saturday, it’s the Potoczny compound. Don’t forget to go to the Welcome Jam this weekend if you are within a 6 hour drive of Pittsburgh. This is seriously one of the best times you will have. I promise. Here’s a quick helmet cam Mark Potoczny put together giving you a look at just how good all the lines are running. Amazing.

“After a year hiatus it’s back! Here are all the lines we have running for the jam this Saturday September 29th. Hope you can come out and enjoy the trails. $5 to ride, eat, and watch 3 musical acts. Starts at noon and at dark. Prizes will be given out for high air on the quarter and on the Science jump.”

Deluxe Part Deux PA Premiere Edit & Photogallery

The other weekend, Mark Potoczny threw a big premiere party for the release of the new Deluxe DVD, Part Deux, in Pittsburgh. Anyone who has ever been to a party thrown by Mark or spent some time in Pittsburgh knows that you’re in for a damn good time. Over the course of the weekend, there was a jam at the Sheraden skatepark that Tom Arkus organized , a premiere for the video at the OTB bar and a session that went down at the Potoczny’s trails to celebrate the release of the video. As expected, it turned out to be a damn good time. I don’t think anyone fell into the fire this time around either.
Nick Steben made the trip down to Pittsburgh for the good times and came back with the edit above and a photogallery that you can check out below! Enjoy!

Potoczny Brothers Interview

April 15, 2011

The two raddest brothers I can think of, Mark and Mike Potoczny, have an interview up on Ride BMX talking about what it’s like having a brother that rides. Gotta love these guys. They’re the best.

On The Road Again

August 20, 2010

Photobucket

It looks like today I’ll be heading out on another road trip adventure. This time around Reed Stark and I will be making our way over to Milwaukee, Wiscompton to meet up with the Sun Ringle team and loading up the van. We will be hitting the DK Dirt Circuit on Sunday and then a full week of unplanned adventures that will end up in Pennsylvania for the Welcome Jam at the Potoczny house. Followed by a straight shot back to Milwaukee. I’ll be trying to do photo updates as much as possible but since we’re going to be camping out everyday the wi-fi might be a bit limited. Tony Malouf is coming along as well to film so there should be at least a video or two coming from him too. Get psyched!

Welcome Jam 2010

What do you get when you get two awesome brothers who can shred and happen to have some real dialed trails and know how to have a good time? Well, you get the Potoczny brothers and their annual trails jam that has been going on for years. The Welcome Jam is going down this year on August 28th and it’s bound to be a damn good time. From the looks of it, I’ll be rolling halfway across the country with the Sun Ringle crew starting this weekend and ending up at the jam on the 28th. I hit up Mark to get some more details about the jam and he sent over some photos and videos from the past jams to go with his answers for you! See you there!
