Heres a pic from my good friend Daniel Porter. Hes working on gettin on the come up and gettin established here and there for some photo stuff. I pulled a string here and there and we should be seeing his first kinda BMX spread fairly soon. Anyway the pic pretty much sums up my 2008 so far. Down but not out at all :) Pedaled and jumped some small rhythm at cali today and just chilled out. Tummy felt fine knee is another story I guess 10 days of chillin wasnt a great thing but what can I do? Enjoy the pic and still waiting on some shipping issues with the sample stuff bummer!

TwoThousandAndHate...

Geez its been a rough year and this is titled life and death. So I havent updated because Ive been in the hospital since the 2nd of June with a badly cracked/severed/bleeding spleen. See tghe pic in the previous post I was about that high I guess and lost tranny and splatted to my doom 20+ feet below. Shit has been a rough week and a Dooooozy. Anyway was in ICu for a few days then normal hospital and now home after a week or so. Shit sucks but things will move on and Ill go into detail later. Thanks everyone for the visits and support it really helps. On the Exodus side of things samples are on their way to me see below pics of the bars and frame :) So thats the life after the death thing I guess. Anyway gonna pain pill it up and try to sleep. Thanks again everyone for kind words and prayers!

Skids N Carves

This pic is courtesy of Mike who is a newer rider to me, but hes a ripper that has been at cunningham a bit lately. Anyway he has a unique style and I dig watching him ride. He was present when I found the line to do these skids in the full pipe opening and we talked about shottin a pic of them. There ya go. The pic doesnt exactly do it justice but hey if you wanna see the real thing come out and check it out ya know? Thanks Mike. Halsey gets here tomorrow shes gonna be my transplant live in BMX'er for the next 3-4 weeks. She's chill and hope she enjoys the scene here, shes more of a racer but she's stuck with me so yeah. Should be fun. Rode a pro-am today and it was a total bust. Got 5th in the main afetr getting slammed in the last turn, only $30bucks difference between 4th and 5th so I wasnt too concerned but the track was a bust and the whole day was shady. No worries though :) Enjoy the lil pic and see ya at the next session?

Simple stuff....

So I rode cunningham yesterday it was really small 6 dudes and 2 of them were from out of town. Shame not alot of people ride that park so gettin extra sessions wont happen anytime soon thats for sure. But what can you do? Anyway back the simple thought- Im riding with Chris in the big pipe and I never have followed someone through because its kinda sketch and I dont trust many guys lol, but I yell to Chris "comin in hot!" and I follow him through well this idiot or so I thought goes through the corner the wrong direction. To his right when we both turn to the left... I felt lost for a sec but sure enough I had some speed comign back into the beginning of the full pipe that I never had before. I carved and got to oververt and almost died because I bounced off somehow. It was funny and I lived to tell about it. So moving along I started to enjoy that line and I left some skid marks at a foot or so past the over vert section. I was really psyked about them and then I started lookin at em some more and tripping off of how over vert that is and how nutty of a carve it is. I was psyked Chris made me film it and Ill get a pic sometime soon. Halseys coming on the 3-4th of June a week early so thatll be chill Ill have company and a riding buddy for a few weeks. Riding Riding Riding.

Dont call it a comeback!

Got home yesterday after being in AZ/NM for a good 2 weeks. Had a good time there, didnt get to ride as much as I would have liked but the tracks operate on a weird schedule there so nothing I could have done. Anyway I race at New Mexico and had a decent weekend but it was really frustrating. I was in total point with 2 older guys in 26-30 cruiser and Im only 23 so I was out of class which isnt too bad. Anyway one of the guys was good and the other was a beast. The guy was like 6foot tall and had tons of power, the track was simple and a power rider had the advantage all day long. I holeshotted every race but in the last turn every time I would get high-low passed and get beat right at the line. Chalked up 2nd both days and felt pretty good, I rode without my kneebarce the majority of the time which is a bad idea but I wont get into the habit of it just did it for whatever reason. Knee felt great, legs could use more power like always, and I suspect something isnt good with my turns but Im not sure. Puked after EVERY lap which fuckin sucks and I feel soo shitty when I finish a lap its ridiculous. Anyway Prunedale is coming up in a few weeks and Id like to get in shape and make a main and try and win that race of course. Well see..... Videos of the 2 main events below-
