Enjoy The Trick 2013 Winter Classic

Enjoy The Trick 2013 Winter Classic from mark rainha on Vimeo.

“The annual Enjoy The Trick Winter Classic went down on January 5th, 2013, at The Lumberyard in Portland, Oregon. The sponsors came through in a big way, so it’s our honor to personally thank Eric Stefano and Primo/Tips Plus as well as Henry Davis from East County BMX in San Diego. Primo/Tips Plus sponsored the bunny-hop contest, with the winner snagging a brand new Federal Washington frame. Primo also came through with goodie bags for all the flatland riders. East County BMX sponsored the flatland jam contest with the winner taking home a brand new Flatware frame. Without their support as well as support from The Lumberyard, Goods BMX, Ink Brigade and Community BMX, these jams just would not be possible. Portland is a BMX city, and no matter what discipline you ride, the community here supports. Enjoy The Trick!”

Colorado Flatland Jams: 2012 Holiday Edition

Colorado Flatland Jams: 2012 Holiday Edition from Jake Umberger on Vimeo.

Footage from the second annual Colorado Flatland Jams Holiday Jam. The Holiday Jam on Saturday was a HUGE success! I always think the last jam was the best one ever, but I have to say that it was such a blast. They just keep getting better and better.
We had a great day riding starting at the Centennial Center Park which we found out we are technically not even supposed to be in with a bike lol. No hassles though and we had a few people watching and enjoying the show. A half bottle of crown also saw some damage 😉 Presents and awards for the year were given. We missed a few homies, but we know they were there in spirit for sure!
After it started getting dark, we moved it indoors at McGraws place and had some burgers and more riding. It thinned out a bit by then, but we still had a great session and got some stuff done for sure. The crown met its demise.
Over all, Jason Rideout, Joel Schallhorn and myself (Jake Umberger) shut the thing down and in the end got at least 7 hours of riding in and quite a few more hours sitting around and talking about the sport we all love. Great end to a great day.
Great to see Rowboat on his new custom Standard 250FL flatland frame. Thing is beautiful and rides so good!
Thanks to James McGraw for coming out in the cold to hang with us for a bit and shooting some pics. Especially thank you for letting us use your indoor spot.
Going to be a kick ass year. Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and Happy New Year to all of our flatland friends and family!
