Torey By John Hargraft

Torey in my mind is probably the most creative rider in this fixed gear freestyle game and this photo is no exception. This disaster to fakie was captured by our man John Hargraft at the Revival NYC premiere.

Interview With Moral Collective

A week ago I sat down with Moral Collective, an online publication based here in Toronto, to do an interview about life, the film and the future of Skitch. The interview is very lengthy but I hope you all find it some what interesting. Read the interview here.

Skitch Crew Hold It Down At Mayhem

I'm just going to let the photos and videos do the talking. All and all it looked like one of the best weekends in fixed gear freestyle history.

More Mayhem

MIDWEST MAYHEM!!! from Seth Root on Vimeo.

What can I say the Mayhem looked crazy and I wish I could have been there. Here's an awesome video of a few highlights that went down. Thanks to Seth Root for posting this up. Wonka and Torey both went super hard it looks like, great job dudes!

Torey, Wonka and Prolly at MWM!

Prolly just posted up these videos by Ronsta from Sun Ringle of what went down last night at the Midwest Mayhem. Torey and Wonka were obviously destroying everything in sight. I can't wait to see more footage from the night.

Midwest Mayhem!

This is it people, the biggest fixed gear contest North America has ever seen! The Skitch crew will be there in full effect with Torey, Wonka and Mosher all heading to Milwaukee. This is also the first Revival screening in the state of Wisconsin so if you're anywhere near by don't miss this.

Swoo!

Our good buddy Swoo was apparently waiting for his girlfriend the other day and decided to just huck a 9 set to pass the time. Swoo is one of the local Toronto killers that rips with us all the time but this was a big step for him for sure. I don't think I'd even seen him jump anything bigger than a 3 set before this. Great job Swoo. You can expect a proper web video coming very soon from this kid.

Mosher In A Parking Garage

I'm heading out with Mosher tomorrow to do a bit of filming for an up coming web video. In the mean time he put up this quick clip of himself doing a variation of the fish & chip whip. I promise what I'm filming tomorrow will look a lot better than this.

Ten Ten Sighting!

Last night my girlfriend came home and told me that she had been checking out a photo blog by photographer, Kyle Scully while passing the time at work. As she was scrolling through the pages she stumbled on a photo of our man Ten Ten Temmyo riding in Vancouver. Ten Ten has been out of the game for a while now due to school and other obligations in life. Ten Ten is by far one of my favorite riders and we hope he gets back on a bike a little more frequently in the near future.

Wonka Interview at 700CMX

Wonka's got an interview up at 700CMX that seems to have sparked a fire in the fakie debate. As someone who knows and respects Wonka I got to say he's always been cool with me even though almost 100% of my tricks are fakie based. Frankly I'm not getting too upset about one sentence that got posted on the internet.

Fixe Magazine

A little while ago Wayne and myself did an interview with Fixe Magazine from Paris, France. Some photos surfaced today of the article and I thought I would share. Found here.

Mosher Pedal Setting Tutorial

Since I first met him Tom Mosher has been all about teaching people how to do tricks. This video is no different and highlights how to pedal set. As with any Tom Mosher video it comes filled with music choices only Mosher could love and silly antics. I love these videos because this is exactly what it's like to hang out with Mosher when he's explaining to people how to do something. Just don't ask him how to ride backwards. (Inside joke)

Future Tense January 2010

Zach is throwing the first Future Tense of 2010 so if you're in the area please head out and have some fun in Seattle.

I'm sure you've seen this all over the internet by now but it's our boy Wonka getting crazy in Europe. I saw this a while ago with Wonka and I have to say I'm still stoked every time I see it. So dope!
