if you know me, I LOVE BIGASS BAGS. i dont know what it is about ridiculously huge messenger bags that makes me feel all warm and giddy. based out in minneapolis, minnesota, trash bags started out in a little room with a desktop sewing machine. two years later, they have a website dedicated to bringing thes crazy fun bags to the table. i mean come on, it's a walrus and a rainbow. that's fucking rad. it's made by riders for riders from the city streets of minneapolis to you. so when you get tired of that cookie cutter bag, get something that's made for you, skip the middle man, and look up trash.

the quadangle was a pinnacle of freestyle bmx. and it was made by se. i like se, since i've had an se lager for 3 years. taking from what seems like the rear of the SE x UVT, the quadangle uses the silhouette ofthe bmx quadangle up front. advantages? it just looks really different. maybe the headtube angle is different. i'm just glad that this isnt made of aluminum (kinda bummed that the looptail is missing. damn. marwin's got the only one- yeah, one of one. kinda want to see how it looks built up!
i want one. that's probably the fanboyism talking.

Elevated Engineering presents Josh Boothby from Matt Lingo on Vimeo.
woke up this morning to a surprise: this. there's no denying that josh is a sav. we already know how smooth his rotations are, but now we get to see a trick that i dont think has been really done before- hangover grinds. although they arent on rails going down, you have to admit- that's fucking cool looking in slo-mo.
it's all great but this song reminds me od how much bring me the horizon has changed. i like liked the early BMTH, where olly sykes punched people for no reason.

Bunny Hops for Breast Cancer from Matthew Spencer on Vimeo.
lots of stuff going on in this edit. lots of matt spencer, but this is his edit- so we shouldnt expect less. that bunny througgh the ring blew my mind as well as the no footed wheelie and long ass smoothies. jakob also hits this huuuuuuuuge wallplant, and squeeks does a couple 180 bars. boothby took first, matt second, and santos took third. looks like a great event!

i would formerly love to say, GOOOODDAAAMMN these frames are beautiful. i really, really, really, want to see this in person. i bet there are so many details on this bike that arent even touched on yet. personally, i favor maggied's machine more since it's got some flat black- never knew the accents and shit would look better that way.,.
is this a rider only thing? or will it be around?

Wonka Vs. Seoul from vincent shim on Vimeo.
so many grinds! what ive noticed after watching so many edits in foreign countries is that america sucks in terms of reallly realllllly nice spots. i mean we may bave a nice spot here and there, but they'll never be as nice as what korea, or japan, or france, or spain's (etc.) got. maybe i'm just complaining too much. wonka recently made his way across the pacific to attend seoul's BFF. while he was out there, he got together with a couple riders and this happened. killer.

AFFINITY CYCLES x KENZO MINAMI = DIGITIZER from Cinecycle on Vimeo.
i dont want to explain this all, so i'll let cinecyle do my work.
"Affinity Cycles, one of the most respected independent bicycle brands in the world, is not only seen raced in velodromes by professional cyclists, but also ridden on the city streets by fashionable commuters, elite bike messengers, and passionate cyclists. The signature Affinity “Kissena“ track frame is the key component of the “Digitizer” project and represents the pinnacle of bicycle frame technology.
Kenzo Minami is an artist and designer who grew up in Japan in the 80’s. During this time, Japan experienced a huge economic boom fueled by the country’s technological supremacy. The graphic design that dominated this era was one that underscored the “more is more” attitude. Japanese design embraced a euphoric idealism of the new digital frontier where design became a fantastic reflection of all technology could be. Kenzo’s inspiration for “Digitizer” came from this nostalgia of his childhood. However, this inspiration is tempered with a practical purpose. “Within the chaos of visual information found on city streets it is important that the design allows the bicycle to stand out and be recognized by both pedestrians and cars alike,” reflects artist Kenzo Minami. “The colors and patterns on the bicycle were carefully conceived and laid out with the understanding that they will not only be seen when the frame and wheels are static but more importantly how they will be transformed when the bicycle is in motion."
Cinecycle curated this project, with the goal of producing an item of extreme beauty and quality, which explores the intersection of form, function and design. To that end, Cinecycle is proud to have brought together premiere artist Kenzo Minami and Affinity Cycles to create the "Digitizer" project. “Digitizer synthesizes concepts that are fundamental to our culture with regard to how technology can inform and transform our perception of space. Affinity Cycles, Kenzo Minami, and Cincecyle have come together to create a project that expresses how the cyclist, even in our modern digital age, still represents the most simple and effective union of man and machine," says Daniel Leeb, CEO,
Cinecycle."
