Make it a snappy day!

BMX- The Shadow Conspiracy 24" Cruiser Mix- Jay Slocum

In 2006, The Shadow Conspiracy released 300 Limited Edition complete 24 inch cruisers in collaboration with the graffiti artist, Invisible Man. The result was the Invisible Man 24" Cruiser.

This mix is a part of the "Celebrating 35 years of BMX" series that I will be doing in 2012.

Spring Mix BMX in Pittsburgh 2012

Peach Plaza Skatepark, Greensburg, PA

View Twin Lakes Park (Peach Plaza Skatepark) in a larger map


One of the really odd things about skateparks in Western PA is the total absence of directions, or any help really, for finding parks. I live about 40 minutes from this park. It is a "skate plaza" and part of Westmoreland County Parks and Recreations Twin Lakes Facility. It took me an hour to locate it using google maps with satellite.  Anyway, the park is hidden within the larger park (much like many parks in western PA). 


The official name of the skate plaza is Peach Plaza Sake & Action Park. The website offers ZERO help in finding the park.


To Map this Park, or find it on your GPS, go to:

Bruce Crisman- Renaissance Man

Bruce has won gold on street at the x games, has pioneered freecoster street riding and is an amazing musician and Lover of God. Very cool to see him riding and pursuing the art of music into his thirties.

Nike Tunnel

Yet another example of the amazing influence companies like Red Bull, Etnies, and now Nike are playing in bringing BMX to new heights.

Ruben and the Lost Pool

At 37, the Spanish rider Ruben Alcantara remains a legend in BMX. The fluid style of his riding, the principled way in which he has chosen to build his career, and the sheer poetry of the way in which he lives life bring a great deal of dignity to BMX. This video is the stuff that bmx dreams are made of, not because Ruben does a triple tail flip whip air over snake canyon, but because it highlights the slow patient beauty that finding a hidden spot presents and the way in which a simple carve can add to life at its best. Enjoy:

Geoff Slatery- Unstoppable

I could watch this NJ Kid forever and not get tired of his riding. He has it all and not a single tail whip in his whole section.
