recent months, the Shaman and original Trailboss have been updated and re-released, a DVD boxset is in the works and things like pegs and coaster brake shells and hubguards are being talked about. This is the SBC Legacy Series.
As part of this interest in classic SBC stuff, we are putting together and updating some videos in the catalog before the boxset is released. Roger’s Garage is the first and biggest piece. Released in 1991 and filmed from 1988 through 1991, Roger’s Garage was the debut of the SBC Army, philosophy and style to the industry. Filmed mostly at Rampage Skatepark, Roger’s Garage featured tricks and a style of riding that hadnt been seen before but after this video was released, it would define a new riding style, now know as “park”, and drive product innovation for this new riding style.
The original video was compiled from years of footage from countless Rampage Kong of the Skatepark contests, many 3am private riding sessions and even some old AFA quarterpipe contest footage. Krt Schmidt put the video together caveman style with 2 VCR’s, gallons of Mt. Dew and cartons of Marlboro reds in sleepless marathons sessions of the course of a week or so. The original master tape has long been lost as well as the “additional footgage” of Rick that was at the end of the original run of 200 videos, this version, while not in the greatest shape quality wise, was made from a nearly unplayed version of the original run of videos. The original graphic elements have been updated for display quality. Audio quality was such an issue, we wanted to give it a face lift and remain true to the time and spirit of what was available for music from that time period.
To all of those out there who have been waiting patiently, here it is, to those of nagging and riding us to get this done, here you go and FatOnes is coming next…
In 1991, Roger's Garage debuted Standard Byke Company to the industry. Featuring Bill Nitschke, Mark Murphy, Kurt Schmidt, Rick Moliterno and a host of up and comers and top pros form the 80's, 90's and today, Rogers Garage was the first of many defining moments in the history of Standard Byke Company.
Remastered and updated audio tracks give a rebirth to this classic video.
