Zenith Issue #1


The Spring 2013 edition of Zenith is out.  This is more of a pet project of mine that I don't really have any expectations for, but I hope you guys enjoy it.  Features Jon Knutdson, Issac Miller, Zach Johnston, Ben Torborg, Devin Heald, and Alex Gould.

Ryan Upchurch 19 Stair Rail Attempts/Falls



Ryan is a warrior.  This hadone of the tiniest runups for one of the biggest rails, but Ryan tries it multiple times anyway.  Nearly gets it first try, sacks it, then tries again and again.  Last bail left him with a mild concussion...unfortunately he had left his helmet at home that day.  Protect your noggin, kids.

Arnaud Marchenoir Welcome to Micro



Arnaud just got on Micro after leaving Sacrifice, so that's why hes on a Sacci scoot in these clips.  He can do a lot of the big park moves while still retaining his own original style.  A lot of the clips had me going "watt".

Haske and friends: Help Jon Reyes



It's so awesome to see the scooter community coming together to help out a fellow rider in need.  Here we have riders from the Spanish shop, Haske, making a video to help raise awareness for Jon's knee fund.  So, if you'd like to make a donation/buy his sig deck, check out www.fixjonsknee.com.




Zenith Cover



I'm stoked to announce a little project I've been working on, called Zenith.  Zenith is a free online 'zine (as in a small magazine) that I put together with photos I've been taking over the past spring.  It is mostly centered on  pictures of riders, with a small amount of text.  There aren't any ads or articles, just an introduction and cool photos.  You'll get more info when the full issue drops this weekend, but for now, check out this huge heelwhip Issac Miller did for the cover.

Phoenix Welcomes New Team Rider: Roomet Saalik





You might have seen Roomets beast Sponsor me video last week. If you haven't, I've included it below. Well it didn't take long for someone to notice Roomet, and that someone was Phoenix Pro Scooters. Find out more by reading the press release from Phoenix below.


Roomet Säälik – Welcome to the Phoenix Phamily!
 

Beaverton, Oregon – Phoenix Pro Scooters is proud to announce the addition of Roomet Säälik of Estonia, to the Phoenix AM Team.  You might have seen Roomet’s “Sponsor Me” edit on Inside Scooters last week.  Well, Phoenix owner, Tom Floyd saw it and knew he had to act fast. “I clicked on this edit and my jaw just hit the freaking floor”, said Floyd. “I couldn’t believe the ender, I had to watch it a few times”. 

 

“We are in the process of getting Roomet a fresh setup and all the goods.  We will be looking for him to get to some comps and show his stuff”, Floyd added.  

 
When asked how he felt about joining such an elite squad of riders on the Phoenix Team, Roomet said,
It's a very good feeling riding now in the Phoenix Pro Scooters Team. It's a great promotion for a 13-year old guy from a small country like Estonia. Awesome!”
 
We are stoked to have you on board, Roomet!

Washingtage 3



The Endub boys have done it again.  The final installment in the Washingtage series features Tom Kvilhaug, Tyler Bradley, Blake Bailor, and Brenton Reid.  These guys shut it down with their rail abilities and bowl lines.  Banger was dope too.

Tyler Bonner- Spring Mix 2013



Wow, right after fellow Phoenix rider Cooper Klaar drops an amazing edit, Tyler Bonner does the same.  A ton of street footage in this, definitely wasn't expecting that.  But it was all rad and its so good to see him shredding hard again.  You know this is gonna be good, so hit that play button.

Fix Jon's Knee (Jon Reyes Benefit Video)



A bunch of the guys at the ISA comp this weekend got together to do this video to remind everyone about the efforts to help pay for Jon's acl surgery.  You help out by going to the following links:

Nobody But Me- Cooper Klaar



Cooper Klaar was one of Phoenix's first riders and has been with them ever since.  Always one of the more unique riders in the sport, his riding stands out with his individual style.  That style is showcased in this awesome part.  Super tech stuff, while still doing it big.  That banger..I think it's safe to say that trick is now over.

Props to Brandon Miller and Evan Larson on the filming.

DoggScooters Paris Trip Video



The DoggScooters team was a part of the recent Paris street jam and documented the event as well as some riding outside of the jam.  So much good footage, from not only the Dogg team but everyone who was at the Dissidence warehouse and rode in the jam.  Even Tyler Wheeland got a clip.  I think my favorite clip came from the other Tyler, Tyler Bonner, with the full cab tuck no.  That looked so cool.  Grab a snack, sit down and enjoy this one.

Noe and Remi Bouchard in BCN



The Bouchard brothers recently spent a couple days in Barcelona visiting family, and were able to get some street clips.  That little bank Remi rode is hardly a spot but he killed it.  He also says some clips are being saved, so be ready for a new part from him in the future.

Billy Evers Winter 2013



This video, more of a Winter/Spring video, features Billy doing what he does best- riding the ramps of New Jersey's parks, throwing down more more more tricks each time.  I don't know about you guys, but I can't get enough of those kickless rewinds.  Billy does it for The ScooterZone.

Jared Jacobs



Never heard of this little guy before but he's a shredder.  This was all filmed in the past 3 months or so and you can tell his progression is starting to take off.  Love the speed he has, even though he doesn't have the most advanced tricks its still entertaining because of the speed.

Scooter Zone 2 for 1: RAD Bar Review + Danny Rambert vs Nick Darger SCOOT



Scooter Zone has been doing reviews of certain products every week, also once these products are reviewed, you can find them for sale on their website for 10% off. Below that we have a game of SCOOT between Nick Darger and Danny Rambert on their dirt scoots. Good game for sure.





Peachy: Honey and Jenkem Promo



The Peachy crew is making a full length, to be called "Honey and Jenkem."  This crew is pretty sick so the video should be pretty good.  Friends section looks like it will be rad too...Guys like Josh Young, Alex Steadman, and Dylan Kasson make for a good video.

Taverny Scooter Contest



Tom Poinsot sent this one in, filmed by Yonatan Griffon.  Buttercup air over a lipsliding rider, whatt haha.  Bangers all around.

Boris Germain- Farewell Micro



Boris has left Micro for personal reasons.  It seems he wants to live life without having to represent a company, understandable.  I hope that doesn't slow down his insane progression.  Such a crazy rider, it'll be interesting to see if he does stay unsponsored, and for how long.
