The Forumph Bar is our tallest bar and is used by team riders Jim Cielencki, Jake Seeley and Lee Dennis. Here is a little edit of us putting the Forumph bar to the test. I swear everyone around here has been converted to the 4 degrees of upsweep. Check out the dimensions after the break.

So, look for it at your local shop around the end of September! In even more Jake news, he’s been working on a video for the shop he works at called the Garden.

Sunday at Woodward!
Alex Magallan and Jake Seeley are heading to Woodward East next week for Week 5! So hit them up if you are going to be there next week! Jake will be there on Sunday and Alex will be there Monday afternoon. I’ve been telling them about the new outdoor street section, so you might want to look for them there. Have you guys seen all the new stuff at Woodward East? I had a great time when I was there last week! I might even try and meet these guys there next week for a day or two!
Guadalajara Photos
Now that Up, Up and Away is available in most of North America, I wanted to show some photos from our Guadalajara Mexico filming trip last June. Aaron Ross, Jake Seeley, Ian Schwartz, Kurt Rasmusson and myself all went down there to film! It was such a fun trip to Mexico, all the guys rode well and we met so many super nice people. I had no clue what this far south in Mexico would be like and it was amazing. Driving was a little rough, but once you realized you could basically just do whatever you wanted then everything was fine. Check out the gallery, it’s what I could get when my nerves weren’t frazzled from driving!
Up Up and Away review
Kelly Reddington shot some pics of one of our premieres and wrote up a review of Up Up and Away! You can check it out over at RideBMX.com!

In other Jake news, he’s been filming for his Props bio which is tenatively scheduled to come out at the end of summer or early fall. Right now, he’s taking it easy awaiting a trip to Memphis before returning home towards the end of the month.
Jake Seeley Skatepark Rail edit!
Jake Seeley has a skatepark rail EDIT over on The Come Up. In the edit, he does a whole bunch of tricks on some rail in some random park somewhere. Plus he talks about the confusion of describing rail tricks. He recently had his IPhone stolen and I haven’t been able to keep in touch with him. Think he’s getting one today, so I’ll let you know more of what’s up with him at a later date.
Jake Seeley/Come Up trip!
Check out this video from TheComeUp, it features Sunday‘s own Jake Seeley along with Garrett Reeves, Ben Hittle and Russ Barrone. It was filmed over a 2 week period while in Austin, Texas in February. The riding is amazing and Jake did a trick I’ve been waiting for some time to see. Look for a this trip featured in an issue of Dig soon! What’s even cooler is that Garrett’s riding a Sunday also!
