That time of the year again, X-games 16.
As the previous years it was amazing to be one of the 10 riders invited to X-Games, thank God it all came out really good, i ended up making finals and over all i got 5th place, so happy with that.
Here are a couple of riding pictures and new hemet too.
Here is a quick view of my brand new helmet that Vans made for me , specially for X-Games, thanks to Airtix design.
I am really stoked to let you guys know that i just got a new sponsor, VIVIDRACING.

Well recently i decided to part away from Skullcandy, it was for better.
What made me take this decision was that i am just looking for another kind of support, don’t want to go in to details, the split was on good terms.
I totally thank the guys for the support they gave me in the past.
I just got back from the first Dew Tour, it was a really crazy event, the weather in Chicago didn’t help at all, we had wind and showers storms during the whole week, defiantly not a good to be riding on the windiest city in the United States. But the whole event came trough successfully.
In Vert i ended up in 6th Place.
Even knowing that the weather conditions weren’t the best, the crowd was awesome, and i saw ton’s of BMX fans!
It was really stressful to see the crazy wind blowing trough the hole week, and the think that we were going to compete in that same wind, but thanks god whenever they started Vert finals the wind magically disappear, i couldn’t believe it, it was the best thing out of the whole weekend, and it stayed like that until Dirt finals right after vert finals. So at the end i had fun i rode the way i wanted ” priceless” so stoked, in saturday morning i had the chance to go around downtown and shoot some pictures, the whole trip was just another different experience, there is always something new to learn about everything, it never ends.
here is more info.

Vans decided to to this demo in the Island of Guam, such an amazing place.
Is an island in the western Pacific Ocean near Indonesia and Japan and is an organized, unincorporated territory of the United States.
About 12 people from vans including team managers and riders:
We went out there to visit the Navy base of the United States, Next was holding the customer appreciation day, and what a better way to celebrate than bringing all their prices down and bring almost the hole team vans iin to guam.
Nate wessel and Ryan Corrigan build this sweet set up; Box jump with a quarter pipe right next to a bank to wall and a 11 ft half pipe! such an amazing set up!
lots of people came out, we had such an awesome session.
soon as we were done with the “hard work” we went around the island, hitting a couple of spots to snorkel.
The watter out there was awesome, you could see like 30 feet’s ahead of you!
so awesome, enjoy the pictures.

The saturday may/5/2010, the hole vans team got together for the big demo Journeys Backyard BBQ Tour 2010.
this was one of the stops of the hole tour, and Vans was incharged to put up the main show.
All it took was a big and smooth Vert ramp, loud ppl and the Vans team.
Part of the team was: Me, Steve Cab, Christian Hosoi, Bucky Lasek, Dennis McCoy, Josh Borden, Omar Hassan, Tony Alva, Mimi Knoop and more…..
We had the chance to do some PR, like morning news, when i say morning i mean freaking early!!!!! and the hole team went out to visit the Vanderbilt Children’s hospital.
That hospital visit was one of the coolest experience i’ve had, It shocked me to see all this innocent young kids going through really though situations, every one of them was at the hospital for different reasons, some of them were the for only a couple of days but other’s were there for a couple of week’s or even month’s.
Defiantly was a blessing having the chance to spent some time with them and give them some gift’s that vans had prepared, and just get to know them and see them with a bright smile on their faces Made me realize how blessed i am to have a healthy body like many others, and at the same time, how dumb we are that we don’t even realize about it, sometime the smallest problems are the worst thing that could ever happened to us, we live in a selfishness world of progression, where be completed means to be successful, but not for any of those kids. Actually our problems are not really problems for them, they really have to face real situations, i give big props to them, wish them the best on they recovery, and I’ll praying for you BOYS.

Here are some pictures for you guys , take care.
In May 24 – May 31, Shanghai hosted the Asian X-Games.
Probably one of the best contest I’ve been to.
It was awesome to being able to visit the city of Shanghai, i had the chance to ride my bike at the biggest skatepark in the world (SMP), tour around the metropolis and visit the world expo that was being hosted at the same time as X-games.
I entered to compete on Vert and this new discipline called Mini megaramp, witch is just like a “giant shrimp”.
In vert I ended up tight for 3rd place that means 4th haha.
In Mini Megaramp I ended up 6th place.
Here are some pictures of the hole trip.
Enjoy.

Not too long a go i went down to San Diego to meet up with Justin Kosman Videographer/photographer, to film this lil edit inside the THI (Tony hawk Industries). ENJOY.
When it’s too windy to ride trails, Nasty Dog has to ride something and even gives a little insight to the similarities between horses and women. Apparently he has ridden a bunch in his day. Bareback is probably safer on a horse.
