Gary’s Pretzel Rail

Not sure if you realize, but Gary Young is an animal.  Here’s a throwback to the Baltic Triangle Tour to show you that has actually never seen the light of day.  We had just finished riding the indoor skatepark when we came across this pretzel rail.  A spot like this does not appear everyday, so you have to jump on it while you can.  As luck would have it, the weather broke long enough for him to get it done. There’s really so much that could go wrong on this set up. Photo Jim Cielencki.

Look for this clip in an upcoming Gary Young edit, but in the meantime watch Gary in the Baltic Triangle Tour after the break.

The plan for the latest Sunday adventure was to have Gary Young and Alex Magallan venture around the Baltic Sea after the Simpel Summer Session contest while Andrew Brady films and I act as a tour guide, second camera angle and a third rider.  This idea seemed flawless until Alex Magallan broke his arm a week before the trip.  With Alex out, Gary was going to have to make up for it and to no one’s surpirse he did just that.

The tour takes us from Helsinki, Finland to Tallinn, Estonia then overnight to Stockholm, Sweden and finally back to Helsinki.  If you’ve never been to this part of the world then do yourself a favor and go.  These photos are shot by Gary Young and Andrew Brady.

The Baltic Triange Tour video from the trip will be on the site at 11 am EST time this coming Friday, but if you like our Facebook page then you can watch it right now by clicking HERE.

Fun times in Tallinn!

We’ve been having fun so far in Tallinn, Estonia.  Meet up with a bunch of new friends, rode the local indoor skatepark, shot hoops, met Shrek and ride the wildest pretzel rail thing we’ve ever seen. Looking for more fun today before we head over to Stockholm, Sweden for a few days.

Simpel Session 2009

Yes, its that time of year to make it out to wonderful Tallinn, Estonia for Simpel Session.  This is one of the nicests cities that I’ve been, but unfortunately I couldn’t make it this year due to injury.  Aaron Ross is there, so be on the look out.  I’m not sure if he has anything planned, but if I know him he will come up with something wild.  Go over to their website to view the event live as it happens this weekend.  Or you could just go right here!  This is one of the best events going in BMX, so you will not want to miss it!
