There’s a new plaza in Encinitas and it looks like there’s already been some proper BMX sessions that have gone down so far! Check out this video showing you what a few familiar faces did during their session!

“Encinitas, California was recently gifted an amazing new plaza. Bikes aren’t necessarily welcome, but that’s not slowing down the sessions. Watch as Brandon Webster, Hoang Tran, Tom Perry, brad Moore, and Mike Yup break in the new digs.

Tom Perry Bike Check

November 26, 2014

Tom Perry BMX Bike

It’s been a little while since we had heard anything about Tom Perry. We have always been big fans of his style on and off the bike, so we were obviously curious as to what he has been up to lately. We recently caught wind that he had joined the Freed Bikes team and has been busy stacking clips for a welcome edit along with the “Likewise” DVD. With that being said, Tom recently built himself up a fresh Freed setup decked out with Odyssey parts, so we figured it would be a good time to catch up with him and take a closer look at his setup! Check out this dialed unit!

Crooked World Calling the Shots

May 22, 2014

I don’t know what the hell Kyle Hart, Hoang Tran, Dirt Ron, Tom Perry, Mariano Santiago and Robby Nelson are talking about… but dammit the riding is amazing. Hit that play button!

“The San Diegans take it upon themselves to re-write the vocabulary of every trick they do by adding more flamboyance and flair to every kick out and fast plant they boost. Are you ready for the Dyno-Rider to Gemini Power-Wheelie or a Steven Seagal Pony Tail Tug? Freestyle Dad also makes a celebrity appearance and guess what – he’s tied-dyed & stoked.”

Space Trippin’ SF

January 8, 2014

Now this is what I’m talking about! Defgrip dropped this new video Hoang Tran put together from a trip that him, Tom Perry and their buddy Dylan (who reminds me a lot of Dirt Ron) took from San Diego up to San Francisco! This video documents everything they got into from riding to camping, getting loose in a dorm hallway and more. Take a peek because this is one video you won’t want to miss!

“This little trip I took with my friends Tom and Dylan was nothing more than an excuse to get out of town for a couple of days. We barely did any planning for this trip beside figuring out some key destinations. We decided to take a roadtrip up to San Francisco and do some camping along the way. There are two main interstates you can take to get to San Fransisco from San Diego. The fastest route, that’s up the 5 which takes about 7 hours with no stops, or you can take the 1 (Coast Hwy) which takes 10+ hours but filled with incredible views. For us, it was going to be about making good time, but for us now this is measured with the emphasis on “Good” rather than “time” and when you make the shift in emphasis the whole approach changes. So we went up the 1…
The rest of the trip was based around this motto and many good times were had. This video showcases some of the experiences on the way up and our short stay in San Francisco. Thanks to Tom for doing all the animation and helping with the filming; Erin Barker for her photography and letting us crash at her freshman college dormitory that housed a group named the sexy six…,Dylan for partying the sexy six to levels of panty incineration.” – Hoang Tran
