Pat Laughlin aka Big Daddy is a character in BMX. He's doing his own thing and doesn't care what other people say. He might have crazy ADD but there's always something going on when he is in the room. Or on the ramps. Instead of keeping things simple, he's always doing something different, like the one-handed table on the cover that we normally don't get to see him do. I wonder what this cover will do to him. For sure it won't shut him up. Congrats on the front page Pat. What else can be found in the April 2013 issue? Joey Felix gets the double spread contents page with a no-handed vader. Bike tests come from Verde's Prism and DK's team frame. The Ben Snowden compound reminds me of the POW house. A bunch of BMX-ers in one place with plenty to do. BMX Plus! checks in. The helmet review/test is a good one. Which helmet fits right? What are the good ones? 10 new helmet designs get checked. Mike Day writes a column for Plus! now. Get on it. We've all seen the Skullcandy Hawaii trip video. Plus has the photos and the inside scoop. Got 60 minutes to tune up your ride? Plus tells you how.
