First and foremost, I want to give thanks to Chris Moeller and the S&M crew. After six years with the S&M team, I am parting ways with the company. It has been an amazing journey and an awesome experience that I am very grateful for. I'm happy to say that I'm leaving on good terms and everything is cool with Moeller and crew.The reason I've decided to part ways with S&M is to take a rad opportunity to start something new with a local bike company here in Colorado. I am now officially riding for Reklamation Bikes. Fred from Reklamation's has been a great support throughout my career. He has been looking out for me since day one. In fact, Fred gave me my first BMX frame, which happened to be an S&M. It makes the most sense to me to start something new with him, given his support and the trust that we've built over the years. I look forward to representing the Reklamation brand.
The relationship with Reklamation will be kicked off by a signature
After 25 years as a professional BMX rider, nine X Games, and making history by landing the first-ever 720 on dirt, Tim “Fuzzy” Hall has joined the Powder Mountain team as the director of sports marketing. “This is a homecoming for me,” said Hall, who was born and raised in Brigham City, Utah and learned to snowboard at Powder Mountain. “I’ve always had a special place in my heart for PowMow. Seeing how passionate the new ownership group is about rethinking what is possible--not just in action sports, but in life--is inspiring.” 
When you're parting with a sponsor after a year and a half it's nice to be looking ahead. Nick Bruce just released a one-minute banger clip that will not leave him unsponsored for long. Here's what Bruce had to say about leaving Maddgear."I cannot thank Madd Gear Action Sports enough for all their help and support this year. MGP has helped me achieve many goals as a rider and I'm very grateful. However, I feel as if we were heading in different directions as I planned to take my career to the next level.
So I will no longer be riding for MGP but I plan to continue pushing my riding and make it to all the events I can. I wish Madd Gear the best of luck with their BMX program and I am looking forward to
