Things have been ramping up at Almond lately. They recently launched their new site and have started to announce exactly who will be on their team, starting with Federal’s funny man, Jared Washington. I got a preview of the most recent samples and they look so good, can’t wait until everything drops in the fall, keep your eyes open!
Hit up the New Products section to get a look at Animal’s new backpack as well as their new softgoods for fall. Their stuff keeps getting better and better.
Before heading out on the last two tours through Edmonton/Calgary and Winnipeg/Saskatchewan I was talking to Harrison about doing a ‘Disposed’ feature for Defgrip. I took a few disposable cameras along with me and came back with some pretty entertaining stuff. Part One of the feature is up right now on Defgrip with photos like the one above taken during the Winnipeg/Saskatchewan tour, check it all out here and watch out for Part Two!
The guys at Gearheads sent over this photo of a rad custom build they did for a customer. Tons of goods from MacNeil, Demolition, Volume, WTP and more on it. Check out another photo after the jump.
Here’s a pic of Andy Roode poppin’ off hard. Seen on Volume Bikes, photo by Mike Cardin.
Team rider Chijioke Okafo recently sent through this photo that Mike Headford shot of him and his Volume built up with a bunch of new Demolition parts. Chi had surgery on his left shoulder a while back and has been in the healing process for a bit but has been getting back on the horse recently and should be back killing it soon. Watch out for Chijioke on an upcoming summer tour and a more in-depth bike check soon!

As I said in a post a bit ago, Dave Hawthorne came on the Winnipeg/Saskatchewan trip with us and shot a lot of great photos along the way, including the one above of Greg Flag (MacNeil) in Winnipeg doing a wild double peg to hop over. Yea, that’s what I said. Check out a bunch more after the jump including a few animated GIFs I made with some of his sequences, thanks again Dave!
Check out the Animal Move Makers New Era hat (pictured above) and a bunch of other new stuff in the New Products section.
