Vult’s newest dvd finished and available. This DVD actually comes both vids (Aloha, B-Sides) on 1 disc. As a bonus the new packaging is half the weight and 1/4 the size of regular ammary cases. We are planning on the disc to retailing for $12 in the US.
Aloha, 25mins Rich Hirsch, Kevin Porter, Brian Kachinski, Mike Saavedra, Mike O’Donnell and Aaron Nardi go to Hawaii for some fun in the sun. This video documents the crew leading up to the trip, the trip, and the return back to Cali. Lots of good riding, good music, good times, and some nice scenery. This video looks amazing (shot completely with the Panasonic DVX100A), sounds good, has some fun edits, and overall is pretty damn entertaining.

They also will present a short 4-minute clip at [url=http://www.rebeljam.com/]RebelJam.com[/url] to show a highlight cut of the weekend. T-Mobile will be added subtly with "wireless support by"  on the ads and posters.

Andy Zeiss (co-organizer of the event): "It was important to us that T-mobile will have a usefull intergration at the Rebel Jam. We think it´s an enrichment for everyone. So don't forget to bring your pc!"

The Shadows are coming to Europe to ride and party. From 7 - 21 August the following team riders will be on the road: Ali Whitton, Byron Anderson, Joe Simon, John Jennings, Ryan Sher, Owain Clegg, Matt Roe, Alex Dropsy, Kevin Guerdner plus a mystery guest. Hope that's not The Gonz. They've got two official stops on the program that are set up with the help of their distributors in England (Seventies) and France (Frenchys).

The open park session with BBQ in the UK will be held on 10 August

The Flat Art Crew is putting on a Funk BMX movie night. Instead of soccer they'll show BMX at the Haus Der Kunst in Stuttgart, Germany. Next to the Deluxe BMX videos they'll have a live flatland show planned on July 1st. The BMX flatland show starts at 21:30pm and the film starts at 22:00pm. It's free to attend.

Next to this news blurb, Flo Sailer had the following to report:

FBMBMX will be holding a Jam at the X-dreams park in the bowl on Sunday July 23rd. They're putting 500 bucks up for best line/trick with the help of Duffs, and Leland will be in a chicken suit. If you fancy dressing up yourself you can be awarded with a random $ 100 USD cash handout. Making money has never been this easy. The event is only a couple of days before the annual Kink Demolition Derby so lots of people should be in town. Are you down for a bowl of creamy ghetto flavor?

Meeting Taj Mihelich will be easy in the first two week of July. He will be touring with his band Snake Trap for a little bit so if you live anywhere near MO, AR or TX, you gotta check it out. They're playing with Gorch Fock on the first 4 stops and for the grand finale Taj's band will be joining The Paper Chase at Emo's in Austin. While we're on the Taj subject, check out the subscription special that they've  got going on over at  [url=http://www.cream-bmx.com/index_2.php]Cream BMX[/url] this week.

Here's the Snaketrap tour schedule:
