So the April 2010 issue of ozzy ripper mag [R]evolution has hit the shelves. I’m pretty stoked because, as well as having a boatload of good content, I have loads of my writings and even a full page shirtless picture of me rooting my BB.
Caleb Smith makes a brave attempt at defending my sexuality on my behalf Check out the link HERE
Last year, whilst working with Bike Magazine on The Bible, I got to meet a whole heap of really interesting, inspiring, and fun people. Amongst the super talent that came through BearBackBikings door that month, one guy really stood out and that guy was Anthony Smith.
So after five weeks here on the paradise island of Jamaica I finally found the cracks in the image, the flaws in the beauty, the shit under the finger nails.
Of course that title is just an attention grabber and there is no truth in it. It’s just a cheap trick that employes scatological means to get you to dive into this entry…
So the video you should of seen (the one above for all those living in denial) has surprisingly got more hits than Tiger Woods did when his poor wife finally blew her top at his infidelities.
Short an simple post. The title explains.
So it’s hard uploading photos it seems. Especially when there’s 7 other angry masturbators feeding off the sketchy satellite internet hook up. Here’s some of last weeks creation (above).
I am a hobo but I day dream of a settled life. Not a poem as such, just a musing.
Bikes change colours and styles, go from no suspension to full suspension and everything in between, from single crown to triple clamp, from 1” of travel to 10”, from single-speed to 28 speed. What doesn’t change is the racer who gets on the bike and gives it 100 percent every single time whilst…
Jamaica. Amazing.
Press Release from the newsdesk of Concerned Freeriders Conservation Association. 31st March 2010. Conservationists are warning that the recent release of Mantlelope back into the North American race circuit could prove to be a short sighted move that may end up decimating native shrub and race tape.
So its been awhile since i’ve done one of these, but last night I came across something in a dusty copy of Singletrack Magazine that made sense and added a little post script to one particular controversial column I wrote a while back.
We made a weekend retreat from the mountains to the beach. I’m so tired at the moment that I fell asleep the whole journey. Luckily the Jamaican Tourist Board helps out weary travelers and have erected a bunch of big billboards right on the beach reminding people where they are.
If you go to the DIRT MAG website today (or any day if you click the link) you will be able to read a brief interview with Wyn Masters. The interview was originally conducted way back in dec/jan but
I’ve always had this view of Unit Clothing that they
So it’s results time. Click to see the results and the name of the very lucky winner.
Scott Irvine is a all about it. A former Kiwi, turned fully paid up life member of Australia, Scott Irvine lives for trails, laughing like a toothless hillbilly and had tattoos of penises on his bum (see pic). He does have a delightful arse don’t you think?
COMPETITION TIME EVERYONE. For a chance to win a capsule of Seb Kemps toenail clippings all you have to do is correctly guess how many fingers Seb Kemp is holding up behind this beautiful Jamaican waterfall. Leave your answers in the comments field on this entry before 21st March 2010. The correct answers will go…
This man is called Andrew Norwood AKA Nowood. He possesses a filthy moustache and big hairy hands. He will bring your daughter to the slaughter. This post makes no sense. I just wanted to show this photo and call out the one man moustache mulisha himself…But I ain’t got game tonight. Sorry for wasting your…
I once had a girlfriend who loved white wine. Actually she was my fiancee for a while. Now I know that many girls love a glass or three of white wine, but this one girl had an insane love affair with the grape. Unfortunately she had zero tolerance for it. It wasn’t just that she…
Kelly McMassive and myself have been on a shooting mission with Camilla Stoddart recently. In between the hectic competition and even schedule I have been feeding them both with just a few of the secret untouched spots of the South Island. On wednesday we made use of the last day of blue skies to go…
I don’t want to get into the habit of posting videos from all over the net that have already been posted all over the net like some blogs or websites, but here’s one that’s worthwhile for all those poor souls that couldn’t make it to the Frew Farm 2010. This is Unit Clothings awesome moto…
This is the new advertising campaign that Kelly McGarry is featuring in.
So Just got back from Gorge Road trails. Was another mean session, partly because the place was filled with inspirational people. As well as alot of my buddies who I am inspired by each day, there was a crew of shit hot BMXers, and the one the only Walter Pieringer.
Last thursday instead of heading down to the Farm early I went out filming with Ginger Si for the third installment of Matty Smiths Summer Sessions. The above video is nothing to do with that day but does contain a rather humorous video of Si being the gayest man on earth. Ah Mate!
This following post is a one stop (actually i might do a series of these) heckle fest for KELLY “MCMASSIVE” MCGARRY.
Just got back from the Frew Farm Jam. I am totally knackered and sun burnt. The weekend was a total blast in all respects. Great people, riding, and party. Here is a couple of photos of the background to the event.
At Woodward I tried riding but I sucked. Heres the evidence
I don’t just have an [un]healthy appetite for schralping the Tallboy up and down mountains, I also love to ride trails. There’s a sort of confusion in mountain biking about what constitutes a Trail, Trails, and Dirt Jumps.
I have a new entry in my top three MTB photog list. Camilla Stoddart is a ruler. Watch out world. Basically put she is a photog with a ski photog background that has decided to enjoy the benefits of summer for once (nine years back to back winters anyone?) which includes exploring MTB photography.
I love Grieg Howell. Once my flatmate in Whistler and forever one of the nicest dudes I will ever meet has really started to look into mountain bike photography of late.
So whilst in NZ (this months residence for yours truly) I’m racing around the Dirty South to all the all the two wheeled ‘freestyle’ events, jams and comps that make up the Month of Mayhem. Last weekend was the Stoney Hills Jam, and in two weekends time it will be the Gorge Road Jam but…
So last friday evening im sat at Stoney Hills trails in Dunedin. Just had a rad few hours digging and riding, friends were all around, the sun was setting, the weather was warm, there was a view of the surf, and the first beers had just been opened when my phone rings. I take the…
So part of my trip to Cali was to interview Carter Holland. Spent some time shooting shit with Carter, playing with Zeus (his dog), and riding his new bikes (the Killswitch and Contraband). I am pretty pumped on the results of the interview. Its not like 99% of interviews thats for sure. Keep an eye…
Yeah so it’s been a long time since I’ve updated this page. Been too busy living to spend more than a cursory glance at emails. In the past three weeks I have been through some awesome parts of California and New Zealand. Rather than bore you with tales (or art fag poetry) I figure I…
So in just days I will be fulfilling a long time dream and thats going to California. However, there are some people that are less than stoked about the place, one of whom is Morgan ‘MorgaDeth’ Meredith who actually lives there. Well to be fair he just said that the OC was a cultural abyss.…
Don’t ever order the fish of the day just be you are hungover and in need of a meal. This might appear on your plate. Trust me it tasted worse than it looks. It tasted like the fish had been feasting on dirt, then rubbed in dirt, before being deep fried in dirt.
Before I launch headfirst into the shit pile that is the GT Sanction advert then take a moment to acquaint yourself with the ad…
Much overdue, here’s another installment of WHISTLER DIARIES – THE BACKGROUND FILES. This time the column in question is about the Crankworx ’08 slopestyle finals where we get a little transcendental.
“A moving tale of mans quest for happiness in a world characterized by malaise” The New York Times “A visual fiesta…gripping, inspiring and otherworldly” The Guardian “What a right bunch of cabrons…didn’t we see their testicles at Feliz Nuevo?” Sabinas Weekly
A quick and un-edited musing on the geography and topography of Rancho San Enrique.
So I gave up bashing specific brands and products once Whistler Diaries.com went pop. No reason, besides there’s people doing it far better out there, such as this young lady. So before I go any further I want to make one thing clear, no matter how much I’m about to slate this particular bicycle, just…
I owe Jesse Barham. The above photo that he took is being a right hussy and has slutted itself out to another website/blog. This time on Ferrentinos extremely amusing and enlightening blog (104BRONSON) that he does at part of duties for Santa Cruz as Head Marketeer. Maybe I should offer Jesse a ride on the…
So it’s no secret that being stuck in the desert makes you a sex deprived maniac, hence photo, titled ‘One Month And Six Days’. In the past week i’ve been privey to more secrets than a double crossing world war two spy . I was bursting with insider gossip and industry secrets, but I couldn’t…
So the pigeon post arrived and brought a copy of Spoke Magazine 34
Two days before shooting outta Whistler in the fall I made a visit to the Chromag headquarters to get the gorgeous Ranger stem and brand new soon to be released all-mountain Fubars (in chrome of course). The weather was so cold and wet that day and I had already been on a 4 hour wet…
Loving the Tallboy more than ever. I’ve been getting the DH twitch recently and the Tallboy provides a buzz for blasting corners, tracking off camber and going flat out. I’ve been trying to figure out if I can squeeze in a battle at the NZ National Champs Dual Slalom because this bike would kill it.…
