The orange is gone and flat black is back. He’s still rocking some flair though with the red tanwalls we introduced earlier this year and some blue G-Sports rims. Click around the flipbook above to check out what Gary’s riding at the X-Games!
extreme games fifteen
The big news from yesterday is Gary Young qualified 1st in X-Games park and Chase Hawk qualified 5th! They both flowed the course fast and boosted high. You can check out some clips of their runs in the video above from RideBMX.com.
Chase Gouin Bars
Chase Gouin bars are back in stock. They feature an 8″ rise and are available with or without back sweep. The whole bar is 41 Thermal processed and multi-butted throughout for highly refined strength and weight. Full specs for each are as follows:
The B.S:
» 6 degrees back sweep
» 6 degrees up sweep
» 26″ wide and 8″ rise

In other Chase Gouin news, we recently received a package that’s filled with footage of 23 different combos he’s been working on at his local spot. There’s plenty of sick front and back wheel action so keep an eye out for an edit in the near future.
New batch of Hazard Lites
A new batch of colors are in for our Hazard Lite. They are now available in Ocean Blue and the following hard anodized colors; blue, black, red and gold.

Team Updates
KOG Battle: Terry Adams VS. Shinichi Kiba

Some sweet stuff popped up on the internet and in my inbox today. First on the list is a battle between Terry Adams and Shinichi Kiba at the last KOG comp in Japan. Some of the links and hops Terry does is unreal. Though the red flag in the end indicates he lost, the 360 hop he does shortly afterwards is dialed!
Next is a video for our Beta Bag made by our Russian distributor, Toy Bike. If you’re from that part of the globe and in the market for a nice bag, give them a ring. If you’re from the US, you’re in luck ’cause it’s in the closeout section of our online store!
The Ride to Glory trip is done and you can check out pics from Day 7 and the Final Day at the Ride UK site.
And finally, hit up Defgrip to get a glimpse of what’s in Aaron Ross’ iPod.

Ride UK has an Odyssey Day 6 update on their site, so make sure to check it out for some pics. According to various internet sources, I guess the crew was out riding till 3AM the previous evening! If you’re in the mood to be jealous, this is what they’re currently riding (via @sundaybikes).
Also, here’s the prize package we put together for the trip.
Fluorescent Yellow!
We just received a bunch of new Fluorescent Yellow parts again. Aaron Ross Spacebars, Classic Race Forks, Classic Dirt Forks and Director Forks can now be purchased in the world’s most popular highlighter color.
Going down on Austin?
Give D took a trip to Austin, Texas and sent us this edit a while ago. Featured riders in this trip include Hoang, Dang Dang, Greg, Kyle, Tom, Reed, and Hoang’s pony-tail. Click play and enjoy!
Seven.
We have new rims in stock for the 7KA. You can now get them in the following hard anodized, brake friendly colors; blue, gold and red. Ocean Blue (not pictured), Fluorescent Pink and white are also available in painted versions.
Another R2G update
Our team’s still reppin’ hard in the UK. There’s a Day 3 update over at the Ride UK site and we should have a little contest popping up soon, too.
More pics and a new UK rider!
What’s it called when your bars go past Chicago and they’re upside down? China?
