Gobbo's self-filmed SF edit and some more flatland from Dion.

Thailand has been great so far! The contest was amazing! 100 plus riders showed up and some serious stunts went down. I've made a trailer for the video but the internet is pretty slow. I am hoping by tonight it will have uploaded. New Years was wild; I hope yours was too. I printed over 6000 First Rule stickers in white, black, pink, purple, and gold! Holla at me or Kweli when i get back. New designs! Hot Hot Hot!

Summer/Fall 2008 montage from the Redding guys:

In unrelated news, just a half-hour ago, Caveman and I came to the stunning conclusion that I'm about as street as a walking path.

In even more unrelated news, I ran into Anthony "I quit BMX because my girlfriend made me" Lee yesterday morning at Roosevelt. He's currently driving a Vespa scooter around town, complete with an open-face helmet. Gay and Asian, indeed!

BMX needs more videos like this... that is to say that BMX needs more Sean Burns and company. Bonedeth trailer:

Now I'm really disappointed I didn't show up yesterday, because Cisco's shirt is fucking awesome. At least I think it's a shirt.

I should be down in Salinas right now, but I can't afford to drive down there and then come up to see my dad, stepmom, brother, sister, stepbrother, and stepsister in Hayward tonight. Somewhere, presumably at the Salinas skatepark, Cisco is not psyched on my lameness... although he's probably not as not psyched as Snowy Blobs is on my inability to halfcab into a bank without fastplanting or hop barspin without catching the bars one-handed, under-handed. On the bright side of things, the Cup Noodles (with Shrimp!) that I just ate were fucking delicious. Thank God for Tapatio. In related Roll Mexican news, Jake Honesto apparently did a burly feeble-to-railhop at Duncan Hall last week. Anyway... here's the video:

Click here for Gobbo's Seshin part and then watch a flatland video from the East Bay below. In unrelated news, Kiraly is now on Verde, and Solid is finally widely releasing the Bitch Cranks. I haven't been up to Ramp Rats in days due to being poor, but I just saw a picture of the new street course up on The BLC, and it looks pretty rad. The new site is coming along nicely, and should be up before the middle of next month.

The bags are being packed here in a very dark and cold Oakland. I got a bike box and a suitcase on rollers over flowing with product for the event in Thailand. I will be working on a few other projects while I am out there. One is a Day in the Life of Tee and Keang. Brothers from the city of Khon Kaen that kill it, so look out for that edit to drop soon. New First Rule stickers will be available upon my return as well. Check em out!

Yeah. It'll be good. There's going to be a New Year's Eve session and party at Scott's place. In the meantime, here's a John Ivers/Kurt Russell that Kurt and Dan Romeo edited:
