Well, I apparently live, breathe and bruise Sunday. Yesterday morning, I knocked myself out riding the new Austin skatepark before work. Apparently the guys at Full Factory Distribution thought my bruise looked like a word bubble. I’m 2 for 2 at getting hurt while riding before I go into work. Last time, I severely knocked the wind out of myself. I will most likely skip riding before work from now on. Go Sunday!
The word has gotten out really quickly, so we will announce it officially here, Arik Elstran has joined the Sunday team. Known for his unique eye, trick selection and skill, Arik easily fits into the Sunday mold. He’s got a brand new Forecaster kit coming to him now, so expect a bike check soon. Look for a welcome to the team video from him as well. Arik’s had some very creative and amazing videos in the past, check after the break for a refresher. Thanks to Defgrip and Ben Austin for the photo. Sunday is psyched!
A few weeks back, Gary Young, Jake Seeley, Lee Dennis and myself headed out east to New Jersey to attend the 3rd annual Ed’s Games. ESPN just posted the video from the event which was a totally blast. Jake and I were lucky enough to attend the first one and this one was no different. So much fun! Can’t wait for next year.
Last April, I made a trip down to Atlanta to ride with Alex Magallan, Andrew White and Mike Gonzalez. We ended riding and staying at Chris Burden’s house the entire weekend. Not only could Chris blast a bowl and shred some rails, but he was easily one of the nicest and humblest riders I’d met in a long time. So, when I heard he was needing a new frame, there was no doubt I was going to send him some stuff. Here is his white Third Wave with Morning 2.1 forks and Tall T bars. Look for more stuff from Chris later on. Check for his specs after the break.
Yup, we’ve gone pivotal. Here is the new Sunday Toothy Post available right now from our USA distributor Full Factory or from our international distributors. It’s a traditional straight up pivotal design with a 135mm length and comes in black, blue and green. Get one now!
Well, we are two stops into our mini California/Nevada Summer shop stop tour. Yesterday, we had a great time with everyone at Don’s in Rialto, CA and at the Bicycle Source in Anaheim on Saturday. Now we are off to Las Vegas to meet up with everyone at Just BMX tomorrow and at World Ride Shop on Wednesday. See you there. Check below for more shop stop info.

Word on the street is that Alex Magallan has been slaying some tricks that have been haunting Nashvillians for years. He’s doing this for his upcoming Props Owned section that will be out later this year. Get ready! Photo Andrew White.

Check out Aaron Ross jumping the Mega Ramp 50 footer yesterday at Woodward West. Go over to the Odyssey site to check out footage of Aaron’s second jump and then his tailwhip attempt on his third jump. Needless to say….ah… you should just go watch the video. Here’s the LINK. Photo by Gary Young.
Gary Young, Aaron Ross, Eric Lichtenberger and Jim Cielencki are going to ride the Mega Ramp at Woodward West in an hour. Wish us luck!
We’ve had a lack of updates lately mostly because we are doing Sunday week at Woodward West right now. It’s been so much fun so far! Everyone has been having fun riding the street stuff at the back of the Hanger. Gary and Aaron shredded the dirt last night continuing a newly developing Sunday theme. Above is Gary blasting the best hip at Woodward. Today is the big day for us, we are heading over to ride Mega Ramp. This will be an interesting day. More updates soon.
