Gary Young – Print Ad / Wallpaper

Here’s another wallpaper from our ad archives. This one ran in issue 7 of The Albion and features one of those setups you jokingly point out to your friends without thinking anybody would ever actually do it… unless Gary Young happens to be around. Jump off the roof and grind on that rail? Sure, no problem.

I bet after pulling this clean, he played a 100+ point word on somebody in Words With Friends. Photo by Justin Kosman.

George Boyd – How to 180 Wallride

I started watching this how-to and my mind went on a weird tangent… a 180 wallride is essentially a 360 fakie on a vert quarterpipe with horrible transitions (consisting of only two inclines at complementary angles). Then I started thinking, well, if I were to follow that logic, a wallride would essentially just be pumping a vert quarterpipe with horrible transitions, too.

It’s kind of a weird way to look at it but with this new perspective and listening to the tips George gives in this how to makes 180 Wallrides seem a lot less complicated (credit foster here). Unless, of course, I just really confused you guys with my thoughts.

If that’s the case, forget what I wrote and just hit play. Ride BMX and George Boyd has you covered.

Remember that one time when Aaron had a job as a paper boy in Terry’s neighborhood? He wasn’t very good at it and I’m pretty sure he got fired shortly after his first day. Oh well, at least he didn’t quit his day job as a professional bike rider.

Here’s a new wallpaper for you. Download and enjoy.
