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.

Jake Ricker, 35mm

Just saw these pop up on Zlog and thought I should also share them. Jake shot some behind the scenes photos of The Revival while Wayne was filming in Seattle. Also don't forget to check out Jake's flickr here.

Torey just threw up a click clip of himself doing a very legit crank arm grind over at WRAHW! Awesome!

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 is at it again with a footplant spin tutorial.

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.

Playing With Fire

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!

Wonka On The Cover Of Loop

This is absolutely insane to me. I grew up watching Edwin Delarosa in bmx video's and now he's on the cover of Loop Magazine with my boy Wonka. Wonka has been absolutely killing it everywhere for the past year or so and if I'm not mistaken this is his first cover shot on a magazine. Amazing work man, you deserve it. If you're in Japan grab a copy of Loop and if anyone wouldn't mind sending me a copy hit me up in the comments.Photos by Tak.

Torey for 700CMX

Things have been a little slow here on the Skitch blog but trust me it's been crazy behind the scenes here at Skitch. We're currently finishing up The Revival for the DVD release (date is still pending, you'll know when we know). Also getting a new line of tee's together and stickers finally. I know you all want stickers so we're just sorting that out right now.

Now that, that news is out of the way, on to the team. Torey is back home in Georgia for Christmas but took some time to catch up with Travis Baker at 700CMX. Travis is an awesome rider who we've been watching for a while now and he recently started up a new site called 700CMX fresh with a couple interviews. Head over and check out what Torey had to say.

There is also an interview up with Kareem from Death Pedal. Make sure you take a look at that because Kareem is an awesome dude who's been putting in a lot of work for fixed gear freestyle so support that for sure.
