Leandro Moreira recently put himself together a brand new GT Kachinsky frame loaded up with a slew of parts from Profile. No boring bike check here, just a few shots of the new rig and then a solid two minutes of Leandro shredding the hell out of it. Jump on ahead to 01:32 if you want to skip the park stuff and get right to the Caracas Trails.

Ty Callais for GT Bikes
Ty is one of those dudes that BMX needs more of! Not only does he absolutely kill it on a bike, but he’s out there putting on contest series to try and get more people stoked on trails. I’m psyched on this new edit he just dropped for GT, and even more psyched to see what he does with the Dig and Destroy Series next year!
Dave Dillewaard DLSY Frame/Bike Promo
GT has gone and given Dave Dillewaard his very own signature frame and complete bike. Dave takes on every kind of terrain in this promo for the DLSY line, including F.O.D. and Heath Pinter’s trails starting at the 01:29 mark.
Scanned: Gary Ellis’ Suicide No Hander
This pic of Gary Ellis firing out a suicide no hander at the trails had a lot of people talking. You didn’t see shit like this from top AA pros unless their initials happened to be BF.

Well that dude is Jason Cousins and I remember seeing a post on Back Bone that he had started riding “a full on, alloy race bike”. It certainly seems like it’s working for him. I just hope for his sake that it holds together!
The Things People Ride
That bad boy above is Bob Haro’s newest project the Ikonix SX1. I don’t know much about it or really care, but it did get me thinking about some of the wild shit I’ve seen people show up at trails with. Thanks to BMXmuseum I was able to find examples of all of them! Follow with me on this journey of things that have made me wonder what the hell people were thinking when they decided to ride these beast.
