X games 16…


Division announcer Micah Kranz has been spending time in the California area doing work for ESPN at the X games, the super bowl of action sports. Here is his credentials, good to see he is taking things seriously…


That ramp really IS mega! Why would you build it next to a motocross track full of dirt?


Probably the weakest vert ramp the X games has had in years. It was propped up on a stage in a theater which gave it an amazing atmosphere. Let’s say they got it half right?


Pictured here is Brian Kachinsky and @theaaronross. Brian has done shows with Division in the past and muscled a third place medal in the street category. Brandon Dosch, another division alum, rode his heart out in park but just missed out on the podium. Division is always proud of their friends and riders. BMX is awesome!!

Mykel Larrin..


A big congradulations to Mykel Larrin for being chosen to ride the open qualifier for Dew Tour in Chicago. He will ride Park and vert and be 1 of 60 riders in the world competiting at the pro level. Division is behind you and no matter what happens the smile on your face will come through.


Last year Mykel won the free flow tour and got a wild card spot in vert finals. Experience yields knowledge and reward!


Boom!

Obregon Expo


The Obreagon Expo went down and to this date, it was one of the best shows division had been a part of. The show consisted of FMX, Quad, and of course BMX. More than a few people complimented that the BMX guys held their own against the 70 ft Fmx riders. Still everyone came together and put on a fantastic show.


This was the set up used. Borrowed from the Mutunte BMX crew. The ramps were as good as the riders.


Speaking of the riders, Division’s good friends Luis and Jorge came and shredded in front of the thousands of Mexican fans. BMX in Mexico is serious and those guys can hold their own to any other scene. Thanks again boys.


The fans for the autograph session. Extreme Pilots forever!

Mexico eh?


Mykel Larrin and Micah Kranz have taken off on a set of shows in Mexico. Good luck to them as they travel for unreal amounts of time in a car. Pictured is Mykel fufanu on the backrailing at Weatherford Skatepark in Oaklahoma.


The boys were also lucky enough to engage in a real life truck rally that codyelkins.com put on for us. Fmx is nuts.

Trails for Tattoos…


Today we got our dig on at Brian Lee’s trails in Greenville NC. It was a day of stories, sunshine, and smiles. We all got real dirty because we had to form the jumps with sand and layer them in clay. After you packed it the jumps felt like concrete. Thr soil is amazing down in these parts. It’s hard to build all day and still not ride but putting in a full days work makes one feel accomplished.


Just another day of Bmx!


Mykel had his first run in with a double bass pedal on a drumset and we basically had to pull him off the set so we could leave. Not only can the man blast a bike, he is talented on drums and guitar as well. Hobbies for your hobbies.

We ended up in Greenville


After the Charlottesville shows we decided to visit Greenville North Carolina and hang out with OG Division member Quinn Semling. We showed up late but still had an awesome session at the Jaycee Park. Brian Fitch, Wade Lajlar and Quinn Semling hanging on the deck.


The Jaycee park has gotten a facelift since the days of Dave Mirra Pro Bmx 2 but it’s still amazingly fun and is now Free to ride. The ramps were built by Mike Laird and some of the fastest ive ever ridden. There was talk of a new mini ramp being built which would only accent an already flowing park.


This Division sticker was spotted while in downtown Greenville. It was placed around 2007 while on Props mega your. So cool to still see it placed. Thank you city of Greenville!

Charlottesville Virginia


Division Bmx team preformed in Charlottesville for the wonderful people of the John Paul Jones arena. The ramp looked really good with it’s new black coat of paint and here you can see Mykel Larrin putting the box through the reins. What an amazing superman seat grab. Can’t do it much better than that.


Wade Lajlar also dug into his bag of tricks and rode like a man on a mission. Not only did he do this super whip, but also backflip tailwhipped the ramp about 3 times. Each times perfect to pedals and at height. The kid is not human!


We champ stanced our way out of the arena and are now on our way to Greenville NC to ride bikes and promote Bmx in the best way possible, by riding with friends and having the most fun possible! Keep it light hearted out there!

Big thanks to David Shores for the photos. It’s not easy taking action sports photos and he did a great job!

A few more pics..

I got an email from Miss Strong at the Hartland school show and she was nice enough to send over a few more photos. The show was so fun and everyone had a blast!


Mykel has some serious hops. 3 humans is a blink of an eye for the pop he contains.


Timm Knoll, Ms. Strong, Micah and the principal just moments after a Wade 360. Look at the reaction on Ms. Strong’s face. Priceless


Wade lajlar, Micah Kranz, Mykel Larrin, and Ms. Strong’s awesome class. Champ Stance with aggression!

Dom T…


Just found this old edit of Dom that I’ve never seen before.  He is truly one of the best riders to ever touch a bike and even after time off he still can jump on it and ride the lightning.  One thing about Dom that most people don’t know is that he don’t take a lot of tries at things.  I’ve watched him take 3 tries and something and if he doesn’t come close, he just moves on.  More often than not he rides away from a trick doing something he doesn’t even mean to do.  He’s awesome, controlled, and precision on a bmx and a spotlight.
