Day In The Life

Rob and Tate are now back in the winter winds of Utah. On their last day here they tagged along while Bennett filmed a day in my life for the site and you should be able to watch it here in a few days.

SLC in the House

Rob Wise and Tate Roskelley have been in town for a few days working on some video stuff with Bennett. The weather hasn't been to cooperative but they've both managed pretty well, considering there has been snow in Salt Lake for the last few months.

Biz has been hanging out and hobbling around. He got more bad news from he Doc the other day. Cracked femur, another 8 weeks on the crutches.

09 team update



Rob, Tate and Bennett have been in town trying to escape the snow in PA and in Utah just in time to catch the rain in Cali. We escaped the rain long enough to get some good footy of everyone for the upcoming DVD and web vids. Stay tuned.

Riding and what not


Greg Sumida and Doyle are in town for the week, so we got a good session on this past weekend

We all hit up the Sunday night Fontana session, but we spent most of the night in a heated fly out battle game of BMX. Biz getting his kick out on. He almost took it, but not with this move

Greg staying in the game with the whip

It was the first time most of us had ridden a capsule, we all got a bit upside down, but the pic of me is the only one that turn out half decent

We all went up to WoodWard West on Monday, Biz's GPS hooked us up with a wicked short cut, we just had to out run Jeepers Creepers.

Biz Whips

Again, we all got our backies on, but mine was the only one that turned out, weird.

The Cutter sticker contest went extremely well and we want to thank everyone that entered. We had our top 3 favorites and felt we had to give the other 2 runner ups something, so we added our new fork (still due out by March/April) to the prize list too. Thanks again and stay tuned for more contests throughout the year

Summer in Jan


Went out with riding with Biz today. I'm not use to riding in January so I'm just getting back into the swing of things. Biz's is still getting his shoulder strong from his crash on the national guard tour. He should be 100% in the not to distant future

Riding in January is awesome

We hit up the Fontana park session. It was real windy, but that didn't stop Blyther from bustin with classic style
