DIG at Texas Toast 2013

October 26, 2013

I could have swore I posted this the other day, but I guess I blew it! Check out this PHENOMENAL recap of the Texas Toast Jam that DIG dropped! Even if you have seen all the other footage and photos, this is one you NEED to watch.

“Texas Toast 2013 was a blast! So many aspects of the contest culminated to make one incredible weekend, including a Gauntlet Of Death, awesome street course, a classic dirt setup and a ton of fun mini events. We were there catching what went down as well as asking Chester Blacksmith, Brian Foster, Steve Crandall, Simone Barraco, Trey Jones, Stevie Churchill, Sean Burns, Leland Thurman and Fids what their weirdest experience of the whole weekend was – needless to say we got some pretty different answers!

This year Dean Dickinson took over the reins of organizing Toast from Taj Mihelich, who had previously run the event but still remains a vital part of the team. He summed things up pretty well – “Have as much fun as you possibly can without getting hurt or going to jail.” Ryan Corrigan headed up the ramp building, along with Jeremy Hrabal, and the dirt taken care of by the Credence dudes, Clint Reynolds, James P. Nutter, Matty Aquizap, and Will Blount. Well done guys, you did an awesome job!” – DIG

October 23, 2013

Over the weekend, the 3rd annual Texas Toast Jam invaded Austin, Texas. Riders from all around the world made the voyage to this BMX mecca with nothing but good times in sight. Between the actual contests, the after parties all of the amazing people who were in town for the weekend and the weather holding out, the weekend was the perfect example of what BMX is all about — having fun.
After missing out the past two years, I decided there was no way in hell that I could possibly miss this one. I finally had things line up and I was able to make my first trip to Austin happen, and it was one of the best experiences I could have had.
I’m sure over the past few days you have seen a ton of coverage from the videos and photos that have surfaced. I quickly decided once I saw 20+ cameras out at all times, that I was going to make this trip a vacation and not about work. I took the slacker route and took my time to get my photos together instead of rushing to be the first one with coverage from the event.
After sifting through the 350+ photos I had on my memory card, I was able to narrow it down to 34 of my favorite photos I shot from the weekend where I compiled them into a photogallery for your viewing pleasure. Let’s take a peek!

Gary Young Conquers the Gauntlet of Death

Gary Young Conquers The Gauntlet of Death – More BMX Videos

I don’t want to say this video doesn’t do justice, but I feel like you really don’t understand how insanely hard the Gauntlet of Death was this year. Gary probably tried to get it done 15+ times and only 3 or 4 guys actually got to the curved wall to curved wall. Either way, this video shows you him taking the course like a champ and getting it done. I even managed to become an obstacle at the end when I became the air bag for him to slow down, haha. Excellent. Hell yeah, Gary!

“Gary Young’s versatile riding style lent itself well to The Gauntlet of Death at this years Texas Toast. Everyone was getting sent on that last wall-to-wall, but Gary came through with the goods.“

Freegun – Texas Toast Jam Bunny Hop Contest

October 22, 2013

During Texas Toast, Freegun threw a bunnyhop contest to see who had the most pop. It was open to everyone, but as you can imagine, Broc Raiford wasn’t quite ready to give up his title. Take a look at what went down!

“Freegun BMX Bunnyhop Contest at Texas Toast 2013!!
Odyssey BMX’s Texas Toast Jam is the most hardcore BMX contest out there, and this year Freegun Underwear was proud to present the highest bunnyhop competition. In between the dirt and street finals on Sunday thousands of riders and fans lined the sides of the custom Freegun height meter to see who would get the highest hop of the day and win the $500 prize. When the dust settled, Odyssey’s very own Broc Raiford scored the win for the third year in a row with a monstrous 50″ hop! Congrats, Broc!“
