LEFT: Jimmy Levan and RIGHT: Adam Banton
Just a quick post on a couple photos found on the Metal and Eastern websites; Jimmy Levan dropping a huge, steep wedge and Adam Banton blazing some trails. Keep checking back these coming weeks ’cause their parts in Electronical are in queue!
Smiling Steve (Kennedy) from the Give D! crew sent us a pic of his new bicycle today and had this to say about his Lumberjacks:
The bars feel amazing and they got that chrome finish that shoots lazers into the eyes of my enemies[!]
He didn’t actually put the exclamation mark at the end but I imagined him screaming it when I read it. In other Steve news, he’ll be moving into a house in North County San Diego with Steve Kerr and other riders within the next couple of weeks. I’m sure that means we’ll be seeing more and more of him in upcoming Give D! edits.
This section actually doesn’t come until later in the DVD but its upload got expedited. If you visit Taj’s Blog, you’ll find every single video part he’s ever had, including some that he recently uploaded himself. His Electronical part is the latest one on the list and in it, you’ll find him shredding two incredibly awesome places; an old high school out in Kansas and the T-1 ramp in Austin.

When you’re done, head over to the magazine stands and flip through them in real life.
Alex @ Give D! just sent over links to a couple new web vids they have floatin’ around. These two come fully equipped with an ice cream truck, Sir Mix-A-Lot, a Jon Peacy cameo, Dirt Ron’s shaved head, gnarly nollies, fun, brakes and a bunch of other stuff you’ll see when you push the play button.
This photo of Chase Hawk popped up on Flickr today and it’s crazy looking. Shot by Gregory R. Dickson, you can see it in full over at the Odyssey Flickr Group. If you’re wondering about the wheels he’s rolling in the photo, it’s these guys.
Etnies just uploaded Grounded and above are sections from Taj Mihelich and Aaron Ross. To state the obvious, there are some ridiculously awesome clips in these. Grab a bag of popcorn and click play.
There are a couple events going on this month. One is happening this weekend on the 25th at Shields Skatepark (Flemington, New Jersey). The contest starts at 11am in the morning, so make sure to drink plenty of milk and get a good night’s rest. The second event is put on by Redbull. Titled, “Fight with Flight,” the jam will be going down inside of an airplane hanger on the 31st. Hit up the jump for full flyers.
