Jumpship is such a crazy event. Not many people have ever rode jumps on a floating barge before!!! Even without being able to use the full course this year the riders were throwing down!
Justin Wyper was riding the Jumpship event in Vancouver Harbor last weekend. He ended up 12th overall. But took the win in best whip and got this cool tailwhip pic by Ian Hylands. Nice work Justin!
Matt Jamieson worked hard on this 180 over the rail at the Brooklyn Banks during the last Thrashbike jam held there. Which is almost 4 years ago. Everyone went nuts when he landed it. We should be seeing a new edit from Matt soon and rumor is that the banks may be opening back up early. But we will just have to wait for both…
Yesterday was the first jam at Stephen Murray’s Trails Is Shouting Jam at his new dirt playground in Riverside, Ca. and the turnout was insane… Here’s just few of the names I can recall from yesterday’s mayhem.
Stephen Murray, Jake Kinney, TJ Ellis, Drew Bezanson, Adam Saunders( Good Luck recovering from knee replacement surgery!), Joey Cordova, Luke Parslow, Andre Ellison, Shawn and Nick Terrant, Ricky Mosley, Arrash Sadie, Neal Wood, Kris Fox, Fernando Sabat, Nasty, Hucker, Slayer, Wildman, Big Daddy, Biz … ok, I give up… easier to say who wasn’t there. There were at least 50 riders min.
On to the pics…
Unknown 1 hand table 3… but he is on a Hoffman if that helps.
Cory Bohan canon ball!!!
I missed the trick and got DGAF’d…
270 X-Up 3 by Joey Cordova
Unknown Superwhip…
A manly nac (Grrr…. NAC… LAND) Vs.
A pointy toe seat grab nac (whoosh, grab, pointy toe, land…) which do you like more?
I had a great day even though I misjudged my first and on only attempt at the front yard hip to sweeping right into the S Turn Long & Low. Instead of the more successful line choice of slight popping the lip, finding backside and cruising on in style… I choose to racer the fuck out of the lip, diving headlong into the backside of the landing. Luckily, I was able to tuck and roll out and avoid the concussion but broke my right thumb for the 100th time it seems… Looks like I’ll be spending more time on my N.S.F. in the next couple of months.
This was all I got before I traded my 7D for my Edit1… I’ll post more from Suzie’s point of view later…
Yesterday was the Stephen Murray Trails is Shouting Jam. A huge crowd came out to hit some huge jumps. It is now the 5th anniversary of the crash that changed BMX forever. Make sure to support Stephen Murray and STAY STRONG. Go get yourself a tee or four at this link http://staystrong.co.uk/
Some of have called Valmont Bike Park in Boulder Colorado the happiest place on earth. It is definitely an insane park for a city owned and maintained park that is FREE to the public. This is just 30 seconds of the dirt jump line from Matt Russell’s perspective.
Jake Kinney and his Index Ink Teammate Andrew Bigelow went out to Colorado this spring to hang out and hit the ranchstyle slopestyle. Now thanks to PSBMX you can see a bit of what happened.
