Any modifications: This frame was ridden by Pete Brandt & Bo Wade before I got it as a warranty & Bo had cut the seat tube down.
Anything specific to you that you must have on your own ride: A Yoda sticker it never hurts to have the force on your side! & my Adidas shoe tongue stem pad. It’s saved my knees many times.

Voodoo Jam 2012 Vet Class Highlights
Rad Dad was instrumental in making the Vet Class happen at Voodoo, heres what he had to say…
“The Flatland Voodoo Jam Vet Class was held on June, 9 2012 in New Orleans, LA. The Vet Class was stacked with 14 riders from all over the place. Riders over the age of 30 not riding at todays expert level. This class is become more popular at contest all over the USA. It has been bringing riders out that have not been out in awhile and giving older riders a class that they can call their own.”
