pows return

the pows have been shredding and diggin a ton and now that Marcus has internet again you can read all about it and drool over the pictures of their dirt art. a couple samples, but you should see the rest including some riding photos.




My dad just told me about an article he read in Wired magazine. The article was about architects who assume that skateboarders (and presumably bmxers) will do whatever it takes to ride their buildings and actually try to make their building fun to ride. Zaha Hadid is one of those architects and a quick google image search made me want to start buying plane tickets all over the world.


and I found this in my search, which is just weird and about 90 degrees in the wrong

oh, and it should start raining any minute now and we can start working on the trails.

beef

maybe this is why skateboarders dont want to share parks with bikes


Chris Reisner has a blog now, you can always find it in the links. He updates all the time (unlike this place) so make it a daily stop. Brandon, Jordan, Travis and Matt Mardesich have been digging like crazy and there spot is amazing and err, a little intimidating. Check out pictures on Joey Garica's site, which is back in action and another good interweb destination.

On a personal note I finally broke the string of bad luck fridays I was experiencing and managed to have a great time last night without contracting poison oak, or falling off a moving motor scooter.

treetree


woods from jackson allen on Vimeo. We are pretty low-tech (not to be confused with lotek) here at the canyon. made this in 15 minutes with a point and shoot and filthy tarps and rocks as a tripod. it shows.


ahh fall.
Also there have been a lot of amazing videos on vimeo lately, a lot of trails. You can see the ones I have found here. It definitely is starting to feel like winter.
