Another great random photo of Chris Silva. This one was shot on the same day as the last photos we posted of Chris at a secret DIY concrete mini ramp. Thanks to Rich Redmond for the photo.

Mike King, Vinnie Mayne, and Billy Cooper all went stateside in March to Austin, TX during the SXSW festival. The city faces a population explosion during that week every year, and the guys tried to make the best of the situation and enjoy the better weather. Check out the edit that Mike put together, and extra thanks to Seventies for the support.

Chad Kerley’s Vitamin Water Invitational at The Bakery has come and went, and from the coverage and responses to it, it seems like a pretty big success. There’s sure to be a lot more coverage rolling out from it soon, but check the above photo of Kevin and a full gallery and results from RideBMX, and check the edit from The Come Up below with Kevin’s crank arm to 360 at 1:44.

Kevin is heading out to Chicago’s Bakery for Chad Kerley’s Vitamin Water Invitational contest this weekend. He got the invite and will be there with the cream of the crop in BMX.

Jeff Kocsis and some of the Animal crew did a shop visit/jam at his family’s shop in Clifton, NJ called The Bike Shop. Jeff has some buttery smooth clips in here, as you’d expect. If you’re in the Clifton, NJ area be sure to stop by and say hi to Jeff and the Kocsis family!

The Loden V2 is available now! It features all of the same geometry and options as the original Loden but now has a taller standover height at 8.5″ and also uses a standard 25.4mm seat tube. The frame also continues to use taper lock dropouts and dope capped stays. Available in 20″, 20.75″, 21″ and 21.25″ sizes and in matte black, bright matte red, and matte raw (shown above). You can pick it up at your local shop or mailorder now.

Greg Flag has made his way down to the MCNLBC house and things are quickly getting weird. Check the above photo for proof, and follow the rest of their stay on Instagram and Twitter to keep up with what’s going on.

Found these two gems on Chris Silva’s Facebook wall that Peter Dai shot. You seriously can’t begin to imagine how impossible that corner wallride is to even get to, let alone pull. Super tight transition with one of the worst possible run ups ever seen. Silva is on a mission lately and the dude is killing it!

Jersey barrier to wallride, what a setup!

Dillon was down at Ray’s MTB Park a couple months ago with a small crew and they managed to capture a little bit of what went down. Check out the video above. Filmed and edited by Michel Plonka.
