Morgan Wade and The Texas Lasso

Leave a Comment

Morgan Wade invented a new trick during a Nitro Circus show called the Texas Lasso.

So a little over a month ago I posted about winning the best trick contest in the last @nitrocircus show I rode in. This is the footage of the trick I did. To my knowledge (and I've asked around), this is a new one that I'm pretty sure no one has ever done! People were calling it "The Texas Lasso", but it's a one handed double tailwhip. It feels really good to pull something new, and as you can tell by my reaction, something new that no one has ever done! Haha Shout out to @rickymelnik for sending over the clip, and the Nitro crew for filming it! I can't wait to get back on tour with Nitro! #newtrick #bmx #TexasLasso #notaRiversideRollout #michaeljackson #toestand @hoffmanbikes @empirebmx @silencerco @noveske_llc @vortexoptics @ethika @multicampattern @atomichighperf @elitebicyclestx @cmctriggers

As you should know by now, Morgan Wade kicks a lot of ass! Although we don’t see a lot of footage of him these days, he’s still crushing it out on the bike and apparently inventing new tricks. During a recent Nitro Circus show, Morgan pulled off a One Handed Double Tailwhip. Not only is a double tailwhip hard, we’re not even sure how he did it one handed. Either way, we’re pretty sure this is a brand new trick and it looks like Morgan asked around and hasn’t heard of anyone else doing it, so he has named it The Texas Lasso. Not only is it a funny name, but it honestly does look a bit like he’s spinning a lasso around. Stoked on this one.

Morgan Wade On Gas Monkey Energy

Leave a Comment

It looks like Morgan Wade will have a little more energy when he’s dropping in on the Mega Ramp this weekend at the X-Games. Morgan has been added to the Gas Monkey Energy team. Gas Monkey Energy? Yeah, the same Gas Monkey as Gas Monkey garage, restaurant, etc. that Richard Rawlings started down in Dallas. Pretty rad to see how much support Morgan gets from Texas based companies. All we know is that it’s some well deserved support since Morgan kicks a ton of ass.

Chad DeGroot’s Bikes Over Baghdad Recap

Leave a Comment

For the past few years, the Bikes Over Baghdad crew have been making trips over to the Middle East to spend some time hanging out with the troops, doing BMX demos and just getting a look at what it’s like over there. With a heavy crew of guys like Chad DeGroot, Drew Bezanson, Rob Darden, Anthony Napolitan, Mykel Larrin, Nate Wessel, Keith Mulligan, Morgan Wade and a few others, things are bound to get pretty wild. Chad dropped a full report from his trip over on the DECO BMX website, with 4 videos (like the one above) and a bunch of words from the day to day journal he kept. This appears to have been one hell of a trip… Check it!
