Jeff Edgington 4. Seth Lee 5. Vern Martin 6. Stan Selejou Stan Selejou warming up and surprising us with how much he's been practicing ups Jeff Edgington riding a line through Pegasus Plaza (w/the usual "how do you do that?" onlooker) Vern Martin riding a line through Pegasus Plaza Jeff Edgington gapping Jeff attempting to up these rocks and go off Seth Lee upping and dropping from this rock from last week's photo of Patrick McNally doing the same (we hung out at this rock for a while, some good photos to be shot at it) Seth Lee about to huck to rear wheel Stan Sejelou pulling a no hander on the rock (ok, he was bailing) Seth Lee Jeff Edgington making an attempt Stan Sejelou finally making it after a ton of determined attempts Dustin Askins upping and dropping off the rocks Vern Martin dropping off the stone slab Seth Lee setting up for a line through the dry plaza fountain Seth Lee showing the down tube of his Pitbull the rocks Stan Sejelou doing the same line the opposite way Jeff Edgington attempting this planter line Seth Lee making the planter line Stan Sejelou after a planter attempt Stan Sejelou making it Seth Lee upping the planter Seth Lee upping a wall Jeff Edgington attempting the same up Stan Sejelou upping this tall part of the wall Seth Lee upping the wall again Riding in TX (bronze longhorns in background) What Seth Lee looks like when running from the cops (the same fountain gap to drop Patrick McNally hit last week, but with an officer trying to find something to bust us for, she was cool in the end) It was a cool ride, look for more photos next week from TX.
really nice pics Dustin, I've noticed quite a big difference between last weeks photos and these. You're getting much better with that S330 Bill
seth the gi-joe stallion!!!! haha, good to see him still ripping it up. some nice pics in there. that fountain looks like a nice place of natural tucked away in the urban environment. keep up the good work!
Attention to Sethbom.com you are no longer allowed to visit this website due to security reasons in accordance to the two f$#cking gigantor guns you have. It is sweet to see you representing your COtrials roots in butt rock Texas, no offense to you Patrick and o/ Texican trials riders. keep it up Seth and everyone else ridding!
So are guys gonna be ready to ride March 5th, 2 Austin riders are coiming up to ride assess off. Sick of Austin trials Nothing here. C-ya soon
Austin great trials?? Maybe for some natural Yes they do. but for urban crap and that you wont get busted bt StateCops bc of riding on State Buildings, they tend to get really bitchy bout that. and there is nothing but state buildings. Plus riding the same place for the last 4 1/2 years tends to get old.
ah yes, the urban may be lacking a tad, but natural is great isn't it? hmmm... Places I miss: Waterloo Park Zilker Park City Park Shoal Creek Lake Travis areas Downtown (non-gov buildings) There is a pretty big bmx scene in Austin, no? Where else do they ride besides 9th street jumps..
There is another place that I heard of off of 15th street, but the rumer has it that they are going to take down the 9th street jumps. even thoe damn things have been there for over 9 years that i know of. It's austin land and they say NOW that no one asked to use it for that and that if any one get hurt its against Austin.....like no one has eve been hurt there for the last 9years. Just one more reason to go urban on there damn state buildings.
Yes there will be a group ride that weekend. Supposedly the McCall brothers are coming up that weekend. There should be a big turn out. What's up Colorado riders!?! See you guys in eight weeks.!!!!!!
mccall brothers? that younger one is way too good. if it's who im thinking that is. i wish i knew what it was like to ride pro and not be able to drive myself places... :bigthumb:
oh, my mistake... who the heck am i thinking of then? im so bad with names... i knwo there are a couple of young brothers from texas that are really great riders. the younger one was on a schwinn homegrown xc frame for a while and the older one had an echo the last time i saw him ride.
darf- my bad homes... as for on the topic- looked over the pictures again and they are looking good! i take it you dig that new camera eh?
Heh, I dig it a lot in one way since I finally have my own digital camera. But as far as quality goes, it's ok, I just needed something for a trip to Switzerland later this year. Looking into a better cam after that trip, one w/more manual options.
