5 minutes with Strait…

I cruised down to Liberty skatepark in Westminster the other afternoon and was able to talk Kyle Strait into coming to ride a bit until the sun went down. In true Kyle fashion, he showed up as the sun was already below the horizon and just as I cased the coping pinching my tube… Lame!!!  
But I did snap a photo of Kyle before the light was gone…

Kyle looks for the landing after he’s blinded by my flash.

Cartel… Germany… Martin Kieswetter

Our German rider, Martin Kiesewetter just sent over a couple pics of his new Killswitch for the 2011 Slope Style season along with a complete spec list of his current build. Look for that bar and stem to change as soon as our new bars and stem arrive.

Martin and this machine will be superman whipping all over Europe in the coming months… and yes, neon green will be available soon.

Drew B on a big bike

Drew Bezanson spent a little time at Joyride 150 on a 26″. In true Drew fashion, there are some great, big tricks in this, including a Double-Pendulum!!!!

Matt MacDuff @ Joyride 150

Matt came on the scene a while back with an amazing, hard-hitting street edit. Well since then he has made more of a transfer into the park side of riding. Honestly, in my opinion, he is one of the best skatepark riders that i’ve seen………….and his bike control is phenomenal. Enjoy his great tricks and amazing combos!

Spinnin Sorichetti

A few weeks ago myself (Kalin Law) and Kevin Sorichetti headed up to Da Compound in Perris, CA for their Trail Opening Jam. I happened to be riding more than I thought, and taking very few photos. Although I did manage to get a shot of Kevin doing a wild, dipped, 360. Be sure to keep your eyes out for the split edit that Kevin and I are working on very soon. Enjoy!
