Here’s just a taste of some of the photos that my roommate Bryan Dempler has been shooting since he upgraded to a 7D last week. We’ve been going out on rides around the city w/ our cameras on the daily. Getting some of those iconic city shots, not to mention some pretty killer riding ones in between. He just made a Flickr account today. You can check out more of his photos HERE. Photo Credit : Bryan Dempler
After our quick little session @ the SF skate park Scott & I rode to 3rd & Army one of San Francisco’s most legendary skate spots. Here’s a photo that Scott took of me hitting an ice pick across the entire top of this table. The bottom photo is a screen shot off of a video clip of the ice to tuck out.
Today I went out for a ride through Golden Gate Park w/ my roommate (Jeff’s older brother) Bryan Dempler. Towards the end of our ride we made a pit stop & played with some ice pick combos on this decayed planter box. Photo Credit : Bryan Dempler
Last weekend, Ed Wonka, Scott Horton, and myself (Matt Reyes) spent some time cleaning up The Wheel Talk Compound, after months of neglect. Nothing a hose, some rakes, shovels, and brooms can’t fix. We had our good friend Mikul Eriksson come out and w/ a bunch of his video equipment and film our little afternoon session. Totally digging the way this video turned out, nothing but chill vibes and tandem lines.
I’ve been in Gilroy for the past few days, and it has been nearly 100degrees everyday. Without fail. Yesterday I spent some time riding w/ Jeffy & Gonzo @ some local spots that have been reworked since the last time I was in town. We came across this series of little dirt step ups off the levy on our ride home, & decided to take some time to stop and pop off a few photos.
Every Thursday is bike day @ California’s largest skatepark (Lake Cunningham). So Ed Laforte, Matt Montoya, Alex Blanco, Devon Lawson, & I decided to drive out there to put in a little session before the sun went down. Street footage will always look better, but damn skateparks are fun to ride.
I recently got picked up by SADIO BIKES a FGFS Bike Company based out of Thailand. I’m running the Booster Fork, Hot Bars, Riot Pegs, BB, Headset, Pivotal, & Cranks. I’ll put out a bike check of my whip all laced up w/ Sadio components in the next few weeks. Until then enjoy this little “Welcome to the Team” edit I put together using some of the footage I’ve been sitting on. Rider profile fully up and running on the Sadio Team page
