Odyssey held one hell of a jam in Austin called Texas Toast. This is the best event I have ever seen, ever. I will do anything I can to attend it next year. Dirt jumping is the best ever; obstacle riding is the second best. Check out a TON of great riders going crazy on this crazy course and even see Mike Aitken go through the trails first try, no run-up.





Speaking of Aitken shredding again, TJ Lavin, after his career-threatening injury, has decided to enforce full-face helmets at his backyard trails. This is cool, but I would personally enforce full-face and certified half-cut helmets, meaning no bucky lasek classics unfortunately. Full-faces are great, but they restrict sight and for some they throw off balance.
