Behind the Adverts
For those checking our tumblr a few weeks ago you’d have noticed some very insual activity in a photo studio. We though we’d share some behind the scenes snaps that give you a little insight into our brand new gravity defying adverts. Big thanks to Almond flow rider and Albion Magazine Editor Benson for shooting the photos and Trackside London for proving the space.
A Day In Photos: Jared Washington
Jared recently took a day behind his iPhone to capture what goes on from the point of waking up to eating left over vegan pizza, drinking coffee, meeting up to carpool, discovering everyone rides the Washington frame, hanging with some legends and ending the evening by getting some drinks in. Everything was taken using iPhone 4 and the popular app Instagram.
Guapa Video
Guapa is our first video from the UK Family. It’s a documentation of 5 days spent on the island of Tenerife, getting around in the worlds worst van with no fuel gauge and no grip on the tires. It’s a video about riding any spots we came across, and it was one of the most relaxing trips I’ve ever had the pleasure of going on. It was spent with Alex Barton-Holme, Lloyd Wright and Daniel Benson and I hope you enjoy it. Click Image or here.
