About Me

I've been riding a BMX bike my entire life. BMX is the reason I'm in front of and behind a camera. It also has provided me with the opportunity to meet amazing people and see amazing places around the world. BMX is good. I moved from Nor Cal to the middle of PA to be near Camp Woodward. My wife, son and I are still living near Woodward and don't have plans of leaving right away. The riding is way to good and life around here is pretty good.

China again!!!
Yeah, I flew back to the east coast for 6 days before flying right back to China. I'm hitting up the Asian X games this time in Shanghai with DMC and Zach Warden on the ramp with me. Should be a good time. Catfish might even be there to announce which makes things even more fun when you go to the sketchy mall and he starts talking to the local negotiating prices of wigs and grills... ha ha. Good times to be had once the long flight there is done. Hope you're all getting out on your bikes a lot now that it's spring and the weather is getting really nice. I'm stoked to have some outdoor sessions and might go work on the trails once I get home.
Take it easy and keep riding!
Beijing, China
I'm in Beijing, China for an AST invitational vert demo. Yesterday was the tourist day at the Great Wall of China and Summer Palace, I think I walked 5 miles up and down the wall and around the gardens of the palace. Pretty cool to see that kind of history and visit places like that from riding a bike. I'm out here with Bestwick, McCoy, Walker, McCann & Robinson to do the BMX Vert demo to hopefully let the AST expand to the foreign market with their events. So far we've only had one practice session and the ramp feels pretty good, it's the usual Dew Tour ramp and got shipped out here for this event. I think I'm going with the McCoy's to the Forbidden City tomorrow after our morning session, more photos and walking around crazy new locations. Our practice was scheduled with a mild 2000 people for the first day, it'll be interesting to see the turn out this weekend for the skate comp and our demo.

Albe's road trip is going strong. We're having a good time, rode some street, road Mesh (Thanks Chad Degroot) and even got pulled over by the police for giving out stickers. Check the Albe's web site for full details on that situation and photos from the trip. Today we're going to the beach and Piccalo park if the rain stops.
Detroit & Albe's
I'm hanging out with Flip from Albe's this weekend and we're thinking about going to ride the indoor park near Detroit airport. I don't know what it's called but I think it's the only indoor park close by. If you're around here and want to come ride, hit up the park Saturday night or stop by the Albe's shop since we're there during the day. I've been re-building my bike with some new parts to finally dial in my bike. Stoked on the new parts Albe's hooked me up with.

road trip s done
That was one of the best road trips I've been on in a long time. Went to the media opening of the new DC store on Melrose Wed night. Got ready for the trip on Thursday, drove to Tahoe on Friday morning with Eric and Paul from DC. Snowboarded for the first time in 6 years and didn't kill myself. I even slid a few ledges and the roof of a fake car. Drove to Vegas Monday and started riding all the concrete parks right away. I think we got some really good photos and video of me and Daniel so check out the DC site in the coming weeks for pics and a pod cast. 5 days is sometimes too much time in Vegas just because of how insane that place is but we kept running it full throttle the whole time. Drove back to the DC store for the public opening and had an autograph line about 4 blocks long that lasted 4 hours... we can thank Rob Dyrdek & his show for the giant turnout of people. It was nuts. I'm finally back home and about to go ride this afternoon with Achim Kujawski from Germany, he landed in town last night to hang out and ride this week. It's always good to have more friends to ride with out here.
