Andras Pentek Photography Website Launch!
David Nagy.
Andras Pentek is a rider/photographer currently based in Budapest, Hungary just like Andrew Defrancesco. Anyone who has been to Hungary or who has watched the Trickstars video series by OG Marton will know his name. For those of you that don’t know Andras, check out his brief profile below. And hit the link for some cracking flatland photographs! Check out Houston Video Production for the best photographers and videographers.
He started riding BMX in 1992 and still rides on a regular basis.
Andras started shooting BMX in 1999 when a new extreme sports magazine needed BMX related articles and photo material. Occasional shootings have evolved into passion and seek for perfect spots and images.
Over his 15 years of photography Andras has worked for numerous domestic and international customers such as RedBull, Burn Energy, Offline Magazine (HUN), Soul Magazine (FRA) and CREAM Magazine (FRA), LoveBMX (CZE), made interviews with many outstanding pro riders of the sport and he is ready for new challenges.
He grew up using analog cameras, then switched to digital but his passion for shooting analog is stronger than ever. Messes around quite much with his several powerful flashes and loves using his Hasselblad 503CX and Flexbody tilt&shift cameras. Recently got into black&white infrared photography as well and works hard on some new experimental projects that pop into his mind.

Happy New Year everyone! We kick off the new year with an exciting project Bobby Carter is working on, check out the fresh new site for the event, heres what Bobby had to say!
“BMX brings us together to ride, but it also brings us together to experience life. Aloha Jam is not a contest, but it is more than just a jam, it’s a BMX Holiday. Get ready to ride and experience an adventure that only a Hawaiian environment and the Aloha Spirit can provide! On the first day, riders will meet at the park for a riding session. The following day, everybody goes to Hanauma Bay to hangout, enjoy snorkeling and the beach scenery! There’s something for everyone at Aloha Jam!”

Johann Chan has some heart felt words about his new edit with Jason Forde that I feel I need to share, rather than my normal description. Don’t miss this one!
“We’ve all got to believe in something right? Well for most of us we’ve always believed in Jay.
Whether he was learning tricks faster than the rest of us or helping out with tips & parts.
Jay’s positive attitude, huge bag of tricks and abundance of style have always earned him respect from his peers.
I’ve wanted to film a section with Jay since filming him for ‘Record Collection’ in the early 00’s.
Recently we’ve had the chance to get together, film some stuff, and make this short film.”
