Eric Lichtenberger had a bike check of his Third Wave prototype a few days ago, but we didn’t get to show you close ups of the Wave on the toptube. The photos aren’t the best, but you will notice a bunch of scratches and dings, but no major dents. The idea behind the Wave toptube is the same as the one for the downtube. Each small Wave is stronger and stiffer than a non-waved tube, it’s easier to dent a larger tube then a smaller one. We’ve been doing the Wave downtube since 2007 and it’s been proven countless times. If you dent either one then you significantly decrease the strength of the front end. The Wave toptube will only be offered on next spring’s Third Wave frame. Look for more photos of the Wave downtube including the cable channel on the underside next week! View More

Jake Seeley advert
Here’s our latest print ad featuring Jake Seeley! Luc-e grind to smith down a double kink is an amazing trick! For more Jake footage check out his bio in the upcoming issue of Props. I was lucky enough to get a sneak peak of during our Utah trip and it’s pure Jake. Look for that out soon!
Seth Peterson Cruisin!
Well today I watched the Halo get done and now it’s Seth Peterson on the ESPN site doing the mile long line! It’s not exactly one line, but it has a very spontaneous feel without too much restarting. Kyle Stark gets a big thumbs up for this video! It’s a lot of work trying to follow with a camera. Now if I can only find a video of someone doing a decade out of a wallride.
Gary Young Bike Check!
Here is Gary Young‘s built up Third Wave prototype! We just announced he that he got on Sunday yesterday, but he’s been riding this bike since just after Interbike. His quote was “This feels so good! The geometry makes simple stuff like manuals and bunnyhops so much easier” Hopefully we’ll have a web video of Gary in action on the bike. Check below for his parts list!

Lee Dennis is a badass! Here is his section from BMXFU‘s recent FUTU video! So good!
Sunday officially welcomes….
Yep, you heard about it a little bit through Twitter, but now hear it straight from us! Sunday now has a Dirt Brother on the team! Here are my thoughts:
This is an amazing day for us! I’ve been a fan of Gary for so long! Back in 1998 when I was living in California is when I first noticed him. There was just something natural and eye catching about his riding. Then a few years later, he blew up. I’ve seen him do some of the craziest things just watch the last 5 tricks in Electronical. From Backyard Jams to Metro Jams, when Gary is on course you are guaranteed to see some new wild lines. Gary rides pretty much everything and anything from dirt to street and park to even mega ramp. Then to top it all off, Gary is easily one of the nicest guys. You could be the best rider in the world, but if you aren’t nice then who cares. Gary doesn’t have to worry about this one bit. Sunday is proud to welcome Gary to the team!
This is what Gary had to say about joining Sunday:
I have been a fan of the Sunday team, and products for a long time now. Sunday was the first company I thought of when I was “single” and looking to ride a new bike. I got the chance to speak with Jim C. at interbike about joining the team and we both seemed to be on the same page with a lot of stuff. Jim gave me a prototype frame that day, and I can say that it is the nicest frame I have ever ridden. I am really stoked on joining the Sunday family and it already feels like home.
Look for a bike check tomorrow, a web edit in the future and some other things real soon!
Interbike Video from Ride!
Internet’s been lacking for us the past couple days so this video sneaked by without getting posted. Here’s another close-up look of some of the things we showed in the Sunday booth!
