Video: Ricky Moseley gets bloody...

Ricky tried a pendulum over the box jump backwards at Autumn Ramp Park. He somehow fell and hit his head on the ground and knocked himself out even though he was wearing his helmet. He was ok after the staples. He did a flair on a 3 ft quarter pipe 48 hours later.

Defgrip Exclusive ComeUp DVD trailer



Head over to Defgrip to watch an exclusive trailer of TheComeUpDVD.

There's a lot of talk about this DVD and from what I hear and see so far it seems like it's going to be really good. I heard there's some crazy shit going down and I'm pretty excited to see JJ Palmere's part.
There better not even be ONE indian giver in it!

Aaron Ross on Sunday

aaron ross sundayWell, earlier this week we found out that Aaron Ross and FBM parted ways. All the speculation is over now as Aaron has been riding a Sunday frame at the 2008 Simpel Session in Estonia. I had heard that Catfish had called this out during qualifiers but i was still hesitant to post it.

The overall amount of 96 riders is divided in half - two heats. First heat - 48 riders has practice time of one hour. Then each jam group has 8 minutes time to ride the course (no extra tricks in qualifyings when the time is over!).
