Barbaric Filming
Well filming is coming to an end in the next couple of weeks. And the barbarians have been stacking bangers. The month of June is the goal to get the DVD out to the duplicators. Were all really excited! The photo above is Kyle Walker doing a huge ass gap to grass roller. The clip he got before this was quite possible the most insane set up I have seen and he pulled it first go. It was fucking nuts. Keep an eye out for his section in the "Santa Barbarians The Quest For The Holy Rail" nothing short from epic!

Victor Vs The Decade
Victor went to this set up a couple weeks ago and got really close to pulling a
decade out of a wild bank set up. He came close by missing his foot on the pedal a couple times, then ended up taking to the pavement full of body slams. Ending up throwing the towel in for another day. We came back today for revenge but unfortunately bad luck strikes leading him to fall off the ledge onto the stairs wrenching his foot. He should be back in action in no time. Victor is a warrior.

Moving Forward
Alright been meaning to drop this after my leave at Giant BMX.
Well first and foremost I would like to greatly thank Chris Arriaga for giving me the opportunity and support to ride for Giant BMX. In the past couple of years riding for Giant I had a great time riding the parts and shredding with incredible talented team members. I recently felt the need to move on, and set greater intentions for myself. Giant to me was in a stagnant state. With the economy being in a downfall it was understandable that it was difficult to renew part production to the BMX program quickly. With that being said I hope to see Giant achieve with BMX products and focus on building a better structure for the riders. I'm excited to see what the future brings for myself. As of right now my plans are to focus on editing the "Santa Barbarians The Quest For The Holy Rail" DVD which should be dropping this summer. And finish up filming for Chris's video he has in the works.
