VitalMTB has just released the Hauck edition of “Fast Fives”. Always enlightening to hear Adam answer questions, and be sure to watch the video from years back with Adam trying some unsuccessful flips!
I’ve been slacking on the post lately but this one should be a good one…
I’ve made 2 trips to Woodward West over the past 2 months and shot a lot of photos with Adam Hauck, Jake Kinney and Kevin Sorchetti.
It’s time to share… enjoy.
Kevin Sorchetti: Just say fuck.
Kevin Sorchetti has been stepping up his riding level quite a bit lately and now has flairs and vert-wall handplants on lock… but he says things like “Oh my!!!” a lot…
Kevin sends a perfect flair in the Enterprise.
Kevin makes another fan…
Kevin’s more than a park rat…
Adam Hauck: Jersey Hot Sauce
Precision barrier foot jam.
Adam’s Killswitch with my front wheel and a rusty chain was seen chillin’.
Adam’s also been working on new stuff since getting back to 100% and has added fronties and semi-corked backies to his arsenal of tricks. I’ve even seen video of a dialed tuck-no frontie ;)…
Sweet early morning no foot can.
Jake Kinney: Shredder for Jesus
Jake’s bag of tricks is so deep now, you’d never guess he’s one of the fastest dudes in America’s huge 4X scene… photo by Suzie Morales
Blasting nightly superman seatgrabs at height are the norm for Jake…
Jake got steeze.
Carter Holland: Same ol’ shit…
I got to hit the bank to jersey barrier… always my favorite type of obstacle.

High speed turndowns on my Killswitch are scary and the Woodward step-up is definitely high speed.

Gotta love morning sessions with the park to yourself. photo by Suzie Morales
This was scarier than the step-up at 30 mph… photo by Suzie Morales
Black Market has recently decided to co-sponsor PlusSizeBMX’s team, and the first rider with their fresh new whip is Timmy Gooden out of San Diego, CA.
Tim has been with PlusSize for quite some time now as one of their flagship riders. So, be sure to keep your little eyes peeled for big things out of him in the near future!!!
James Visser recently made a trip up to Woodward West to ride with our man Jake Kinney. They managed to ride almost everything that Woodward has to offer and thankfully captured it on film. Looks like Jake has been learning some fresh new moves since moving up there, and his riding is always improving and looking solid. Enjoy!
Two of Black Market’s favorite supporters/ riders/ friends… Jim Tharp and Lisa Myklak will be tying the matrimonial knot on Sunday in Santa Cruz. I’ll be heading up to share in the festivities and hopefully get you a full report…
Until then here’s a couple of pics from their engagement party weekend… thanks to Mike Honish for letting us ride!
I’m very happy for Jim and Lisa… we wish them the best of luck…
I’m stoked to say that so far we’ve had no issues with the new Roam protos that arrived the day before Interbike. Adam and I had a chance to get in a few good rides before he headed back to Jersey and now we’ll just continue riding the poop out of them every chance we get.
Here’s a few pics of the Small and Medium Roams built to shred…
This is the medium Roam.
Medium again…
I’m riding the small frame and love it so far.
Small Roam with 160mm fork.
The addition of an X-Fusion HILO 125 adds a whole new dimension to your ride.
