Here's a quick video of Rod riding Ramp Age. Some random facts about Rod: he's from Lafitte, he would have the nicest bike ever if he didnt trade every two days, he can hang 5 better than you, he loves cigs, his nickname is princess, and he is always talking to/about girls, which leads me to believe he is NOT gay even if his name is Princess. edited by Sheldon(Don). I seriously showed Don Final Cut for 10 minutes and he popped out this edit. Master editor and bmx shredder?! Ladies, any takers??
I've also started collecting clips from all the other up and comers in the NOLA area. hopefully make a little video for anone that wants one. If anyone wants to meet up and film shit, hit me up!!
Danny is on here way too much but here's an interview Fat did with him. More importantly, Gabor Vasko took all the pictures and got some really great shots. He's an awesome photographer, wish I could've met him when he was in Louisiana.
"so heres a few more shots of the newer stuff. there is hopefully gonna be a long jump and old man steve harris is bringing his old smokey and some miller high life. the shot of the new line is legit and it should hopefully be ridable and scaring little kids by saturday. everyone come and hang "
UPDATE: This sweet ass flyer. High five to whoever made this.
According to Stephen Outten, Trail Jam, Saturday 11/28. They have been putting in a bunch of work building new lines so it should be fun. Bring BEER and HOT GIRLS.
"Hey guys, we went out saturday and sunday and finished the race track. I took some pictures of the skatepark stuff for yall. Also I have some shots of the race track. Mainly the turns cause my camera died before we got the jumps built, but you can see how big the track will be. The skatepark has most of the little street features in now and the more bike friendly bowl still is just dirt.
The contractor said he wants the place finished by january, but BREC keeps saying spring. So not real sure what will happen. I'll keep yall updated on an opening date or anything else."
Thanks Ryan! Brock, Cody, and I went and saw the track in person and it looks CRAZY. CLICK RIGHT HERE to see some pictures that ryan sent over of the skatepark and track. This place is going to be amazing.
also if anyone has any news, pictures, bike checks, spots you found, videos ,or anythng at all, send it over so ooti or I can post some shit. peace!
Paul Brown from Shreveport has started a small BMX company called Revelation Bikes. He also said that there may be a contest in Shreveport very soon. As soon as the flyer and more info on his Louisiana-based company is ready, it'll be up here. in the mean time, here's a little sneek peek.
Here's a little edit Danny REALLY REALLY wanted me to make for him. I wasn't too pumped on the filming since i was just point-and-shooting or music but I Danny was all about it so here ya go! filmed at skatespot in Lafayette, LA for the first bike day they had. hopefully more to come!
Cody Miller recently built a new bike...that's right, Cody-worst-bike-ever-Miller got a new whip! Here is a little video we filmed on said bike at the Catfish Banks in Baton Rouge. We were just playing around with a glidecam Jon Rogers let me barrow so there is no music, just raw footy babbaayy.
Hey guys, I checked out the BR skatepark construction today and it is looking sweet (total understatement). I made a pretty long post on TBC Party that you should check out if you are interested in seeing what the park is looking like.
Good lord, I can't believe this is actually happening...
Here is a new edit Brock Gomez put to together from a little trip Lil Broc, Jon, Brock, and I made into the sticks hoping to ride a pretty perfect spot. Enjoy!
