I, Chris San Agustin, spent three months in Thailand, being this was my second trip there I knew what to expect. This would be the first time on my bike and I was lucky enough to meet the right people and session some really sick spots. Thailand is amazing...from the smell of the streets to the beads of sweat that consume your flesh 24 hours a day. Here are a few pics to give you a taste of what I experienced...

-This first pic was taken at an ESA sponsored contest in Bangkok. I placed 6th and got a cool picture of the king in the background.

-Tee is the #1 rider in Thailand. He rides for Mongoose asia and Chok bikes. Here is doing a tailwhip to tailtap to barspin in on a 8ft quarter.

Phitsanulok. The only bikers in this town rode flat...this kid was ten years old and was already killing it...

Bunnyhop photo: Just days before my return I threw a contest at the Hua Mark skatepark in Bangkok. Solid bikes, animal, and EmpireBMX were all kind enough to donate for the cause.

BMX Artichecture. Just one of the many amazing spots in Bangkok...the place is a mecca for street and 99% has never seen a bike tire or skateboard...fresh meat...
