Nasty was working hard all week grooming his trails after an unexpected Southern California storm, which turned into snow up at his ranch. Long days in the dirt shooting and filming paid off with some crispy action shots for some up-coming ads. Nasty's next dirt comp will be in Chicago at the Stomping Grounds event on May 15.

4/22/10
Mark Webb took a break from blowing your mind to show off his new bike and all the parts that make that thing go bananas. If he said it was actually a time machine and that he travels to the future to steal his own tricks- I wouldn't be surprised. Enjoy his Voltron!

4/14/10
Guettler is out traveling around North Carolina searching for a spot to shoot his next print ad and getting roughed up in the process. The first day we tried to modify a spot and ended up dropping and 800 lb slab of concrete on Guett's fingers and yesterday he took a digger to the face a spot in Raleigh. We ended up getting the perfect shot thanks to some directions from the locals. Here is a shot of Guettler's bloody arm from yesterday.
