I was there to shoot photos, but I also filmed some behind the scenes stuff...at the time, this was to be the start of Christian's next video part, but as most of you know, it ended up being his guest clip in Nathan William's "Why Not?" section. I randomly stumbled onto this footage a couple weeks ago and figured it was too good to let it stay unseen.
About four years ago, I went out with Christian Rigal to shoot a photo of the biggest pole jam I've ever seen. Christian took a light pole (literally), propped it up with a spiked fence, and locked it together with some cement.
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
