The new shirts came in at MacNeil a couple days ago, so they're on their way to the different distro's around the world. The pics above just show one of each of the 3 color ways each shirt is available in, but I'll put up all the colors in the products section really soon.

Jay's gonna be on MTV Canada on Friday, and Bibi continues to prove that he's just plain nuts...

Jay's gonna be live on MTV Canada Friday, April 21 at 6PM EST (that's 3PM PST for you west coasters) so if you happen to be sitting around a TV around that time, make sure you cruise on over to check it out. We don't have any more info than that, but thought we'd let you know.

 

Bibi monster dirt jump
Seriously... just check out the size of those jumps, and how big Bibi is going.

Bibi fired over a picture of him runnin' the new line at his trails near his home in France... Here's what he said; "The big line at the trails is open again, it's fucking really good man, i can't wait the next good session, i'm flying like never, it's really easier than last year and it much bigger, fucking high lips and landing..." Yeah, is it ever. Looks like he's practicing for some kind of big dirt jumping contest that'll be happening in Canada sometime in the near future...

Last weekend Jay went down to New Orleans for his good friend Chad Degroots wedding. Of course Jay wasn't the only BMX'er in the house, because you would have found a lot of the BACO crew there, including Brian Kachinsky and Dave Freimuth, as well as Ryan Nyquist and more. Freimuth had convinced everybody that they had to grow mustaches for the wedding, so there's no shortage of 'sweepers' in the photos.

This mustache might not be real, but it sure does look good.

The new seats are now in at Ten Pack, and should be in at Tip Plus and worldwide in the next day or so. Check the websites of your local distributor or your local shop if you're eyeing any of the new seats, I'd get on top of that because you won't be alone. The newest seat is the Fat Capital, which has a iittle more padding up top, and the Capital has a couple of new colors (brown/white and white), and the SL seat have a new gray full Kevlar top. The new seats have the new patch which looks pretty dope on all the seats - check out this detail photo of the new patch.

Jay's back on his bike again... Might not sound like big news to you, but it's a pretty big deal to him. Since Jay's shoulder operation in November, the only biking he's really been able to do is some cruising around the Seawall in Vancouver... basically A to B kind of stuff, but he's back on his bike, he's getting his hop back, and he's hitting up the parks. Saturday the guys were out riding the Coquitlam and PoCo parks so they shot a few pictures. On Sunday Jay hit up the Igloo with Dustin and Denver.

Nina email'd this weekend from NYC. Etnies brought her in for the 20th year anniversary party, and EtniesGirl team photoshoot and sounds like she had a blast.
