Bomb Hills Speed Kills was at the event getting photo coverage of both days of competition. Here’s a shot that he took of Jeff Dempler from up in the judges booth. I feel like this was the 1st time I rode w/ Jeff in a while. Need to get him up in the city more often. Head over to Bomb Hills Speed Kills to check out more of the action.
Alberto Fox brought his camera to the 2012 AFC Uproar and caught this nice flick of me throwing a tuck no hander during one of the heats. I especially liked this photo because of JeffyD and his girl lurking in the background. Steph was filming from up top the Chrome Truck most of the day. I knew we parked that thing there for a reason. You can check out more of the photos Alberto shot HERE.
Here’s a shot that Lance Jeffrey Skundrich took of Devon Lawson throwing a quick barspin at the 2012 AFC UPROAR competition. Devon has the fastest barspins in the game, every one of which is dialed beyond belief. For those who have seen him throw em’ already know, but for those who haven’t, imagine butter melting over a pile of flapjacks on a warm autumn day. It’s kinda like that. Check out more photos HERE.
Rick Anderson just recently released this photo of Tom LaMarche from their trip on the East Coast this Summer. I what it’s like not wanting to blow an image on the internet, because of it’s relatively short lifetime. I’ll sit on photos for months before I reluctantly put em’ out. Quality images are best saved for print.
Our good friend Lance Jeffrey Skundrich was at the 2012 AFC UPROAR hanging out and taking photos of the riders during heats. This photo of Anthony Combs kicking out a Superman came out looking too ridiculous. Although he didn’t land it, he sure as hell came close. If anybody is going to do a Superman on Fixed, it’s going to be Combs. Check out more photos HERE.
LockedCog took this photo of me hitting a 540 from the judges booth moments before the Pro comp began at the 2012 AFC Uproar. I was real stoked on the ramp setup this year, and was even more glad that it didn’t rain. I rarely ever get to ride ramps or transitions living in San Francisco, which is why it’s always a pleasure when I get to shred these pop up parks. This event really made me want to start riding Skateparks again, I haven’t thrown a 540 since the days of the Wheel Talk Compound. Check out more of the photos that Kris took HERE.
Takuya Sakamoto took this photo of me riding street on our last day night in Puerto Rico. While we were there we rode some of the sickest street spots I’ve ever layed eyes on. Such beautifully rugged architecture that it felt like they were made to be ridden. This huge bank spot is just a taste of the magic hidden deep within Puerto Rico. (Trick : feeble pop up to hop into the bank)
Here’s an iMiNUSD advertisement that I made from a relatively old photo of Anthony Combs. The wood grain wrap job on his G.O.A.T is a dead give away of that. It’s been a minute since I’ve been in DTSJ to ride, going to have to change that real soon. Who’s down for a BBQ Jam on the iMiNUSD ramps at Jeff Dempler’s house?
Here’s a bunch of Instagram photos that I took during our trip to Puerto Rico for this year’s Fijate 2012. The guys from PRFIXED flew a bunch of us out there to put on a demo and help promote the Fixed Freestyle scene on their tropical island home. Words can not even begin to describe the amount of fun we all had during our short stay in one of the most beautiful locations I’ve ever been. The friendly locals, wild nightlife, insane street spots, and strong sense of community between cyclists made this a trip that I’ll never forget. Can’t wait until next years Fijate.
Anthony Combs is a straight madman when he rides, and this photo of him ejecting from the cockpit underlines that fact. Anybody that rides Fixed Freestyle knows that it isn’t always easy to bail off the bike. Foot retention can be both your best friend and your worst enemy. But Ant seemed to have no problem muscling his bike out from underneath him while we were riding around SF the other day. I’ve never seen anybody cannonball off their bike like that before.
