What do you get when you put Aaron Ross, Chase Hawk, Jim Bauer and Tom Dugan on the Empire Ramp? You get lots of action and the video above. Enjoy!

You can’t really go wrong with a 7 wheeled cycle. Here’s a new wallpaper download for you guys to enjoy!
Beringer Pics!
S&M Bikes is on Flickr now and they have a collection of photos for a bunch of their riders. Above is Matt Beringer’s set and it has a good mix of riding and lifestyle shots. If you’re on Flickr, add S&M as a contact and while you’re at it, add us too! Oh and feel free to join the Odyssey Flickr Group as well.
Terry talks about Fight w/Flight
Check out this in depth look at one of flatland’s largest events of the year. Redbull interviews the heavy hitters of the event and ground assassins like Terry Adams, Matt Willhelm and Matthiaas Dandois talk about the ins and outs and what it takes to be a part of it.
Austin to LA photos!
Here’s a batch of photos we acquired during our trip back from Austin. Some of the more notable stops along the way include riding Chandler Skatepark at sun rise and a big yellow tractor. Jim Bauer and Bobby Parker (from Full Factory) clocked in some action pics in front of the lens and so did our trusty K9 companion, Foxy Lady.
Empire BBQ at T1
Etnies put together this nice edit of a BBQ sesh over at T1. There are lot of big names in this one and even loftier airs to boot. Joe Rich, Chase Hawk, Morgan Wade, Tom Dugan and a handful of other shredders session the ramp until the clouds come and rain starts to pour.
Chase has pegs!?
With how much style and height that Chase gets in the air, it’s real easy to forget that he knows how to work the trick sticks as well. This new edit from Cult should serve as a proper reminder. If you missed his how-to from the other day, make sure to check it out.
Dugan @ Ramp Ranch (SFW)
Here’s another Tom Dugan video. This one actually has riding in it, acquired from a little session over at Ramp Ranch in Texas. He boosts so high it’s unreal. Plus, he casually did just about everything in this video prior to the camera even getting pulled out of the bag. That’s including the big transfer at the end!
If you want it for your iPod, download this guy.
The track is by The Octopus Project.
Motowhip How-To w/Chase
This video is over a year old but it’s one of those timeless tricks that just never ages. With the way this starts, you’ll be really surprised with how thorough and dialed it actually ends up being. If you’ve always wanted to learn this trick, this is THE how-to to watch for it.
To get the whole story on why this took so long to be released and a little perspective behind it from Joe, hit up his vimeo page.
