I suppose you could say Lotek has been off the radar lately, and even that might be an understatement. However, Lotek isn't just a company. It's a circle of people and in the middle of it is Rich Hirsch, a person I shouldn't have to describe if you're a rider. Lotek thrives because people in that circle, such as Craig Passero, value that relationship more than anything, such as financial gain. Passero has always ridden for himself, even though he could probably ride his ass off and grab endorsements from big guys. This edit kinda sums that up, as he rides with friends and cameras happen to be recording...

When I think of Craig Passero I think of the phrase 'natural talent'. It's either that or serious hard work because this kid has so much bike control and the ability to make tricks happen. Be it a curb or a 12-stair he will make it interesting.

I got a grip for you today. We have the 2 days in LA edit with grand master of the streets David Grant and a bunch of other homies, and then we have some quick, solo edits from some more of the homies. Stranger may not have some big names like Aaron Ross or Ty Morrow or anything but they have a DEEP crew. It's like they have the North West on lock.

Watch leftover clips from the filming of Football with all the OSS dudes from Craig Passero to Jake Seeley and even Adam Grandmaison getting his icepick on... Then buy Football because it is what is good.

Craig Passero gets wild with a line whilst air left his tire and Lee Dennis owns that hot new trick... It's like the real hang ten... Hang 5, hang nothing, hang ten? I dunno.
