Tribute to the man!!!


Easily one of the best action sports events to ever hit Milwaukee was last weekends Generation Evel at the Harley-Davidson Museum. Superstars from every facet of BMX were there strutting their stuff for the Milwaukee patrons. Division was invited and ridaz J.J. Flairty (pictured) Mykel Larrin, jason “Tippy” Minor and Tim Knoll participated as the home town contingent.


Drew Bezanson came all the way from Nova Scotia to participate in the shows. Check out how much stuff is going down in this picture. Dark Custom take off ramp, check. Vietnam 2 1/2 ton 6 wheeler, check. Cannon ball at height with awesome background, check.


Nate Wessel not only built the ramps but also shredded them into toothpicks. Nac-nac seat grab by one of the few individuals that can make anything look burly. Yeah Nate!


BMX icon Mike “Rooftop” Escamilla thrilled the crowd with his antics and tricks. Full commitment nosepick on the back-railing under the watchful eye of Division announcer Micah Kranz. Check him out on LA Ink this whole season.


Here is a nice overview of the course. All pics taken by Dave Friemuth.

ASA shows..


Division bmx rider Koji Kraft and announcer Micah Kranz took a fast trip to St Louis for a few shows at a Six Flags resort. The fans ate it up and the riders killed it in 100% humidity.


Koji Kraft is a vert specialist and was right at home on the “tin can.” Here he is doing a gigantic tailwhip at height! Ridaz!


For no other reason than the truth, Jimmy Walker rules. He is in his 40’s and progressing still. In fact, he is having his best contest year of his life. Division supports Jimmy!


When you see a pink elephant along-side the road you always stop. Rule #1!

Chisago Skatepark…


While driving to Lake Owen Camp from Taste of Minnesota we stumbled upon a small Skatepark right off the highway. We saw a few Bmx riders and decided to go ride. Division Bmx is about getting kids on bikes and getting a fulfilled life from it. Koji Kraft and Mykel Larrin put on a little demo for the kids and did a good job getting kids stoked. You never know who will show up to any small Skatepark at any time! Pictured above is Koji with a 360 nosepick on a small small spine.


Mykel Larrin loves small ramps. He’s trying his luck on the big ramps for Dew Tour but shredded the place regardless. Rumor has it both Koji and Mykel flip trained that spine…


This is what it’s about. Division BMX is for the children. Stay on those bikes!!


Koji taking it all in. All another day in the pro very class.


The park also had some small dirt jumps and Scott D helped the kids gain knowledge about the scene. To everyone that wants to ride dirt; build in the woods, find a water source, and get shovels and a wheel barrow. It’ll be one of the more gratifying things you do with your life! Thanks to the locals for letting us ride!

Summerfest Awesomeness


Another successful Summerfest in the books. At 6 years of involvement, Division has become a staple of the worlds largest music festival. Pictured are announcers Chris Oestreich and Joel Goeltry taking perfect form while Mykel Larrin blasts a flip with 3 extra feet to spare. Flash stolen from Greg Dickson.


Tim Knoll could carry an entire show on his shoulders. Heck, he could carry an entire weight room on his shoulders if he really wanted. In all seriousness Tim rode more consistent than ever and even threw in a few tricks on the ramp. Progression is encouraged. He also wore that jersey every show, every day.


I’ve used Rollie’s superman in so many edits, so many posters, and so many updates. Still they never get old. Rollie Flasch is a seasoned Summerfest Veteran and it showed in all graded areas.


I have no idea how to rotate this picture from a phone but maybe turn your monitor sideways and let Scott D tabletop into your hearts. This was his first run at the Big Gig as well as Alex Landaros’. Hope you boys had fun! Plans are already being made for next year. Keep an eye on here for an edit of the shows!

Bike Line Naperville IL…


Having ridden bikes for the better half of his 38 years, Jaimy Spritzer has done it all. He has had the major sponsors, watched BMX evolve and die and be reborn. He has ridden shows, contests, and everything in between. It is an honor to have him ride Division shows and bring his aggressiveness to the table
He is also the king of raditude. (looking somone in the eyes while doing a trick.) Jaimy, 360 downside can-can, full raditude!


The shows were at Bike Line in Naperville and they have had Bmx teams at their shop for years. Division was proud to be a part of such great history and will be back again next year. Mykel Larrin 360 one hand pointer with raditude.


Kevin Porter has been a longtime Division supporter and for the third year in a row has ridden the Bike Line show. Kevin has been at the top of the game for years and ridden shows for even longer It was rad to see Kevin jumping the box once again. Thank you bike line!!!

Summer Solstice…

It’s not often that shows go down three blocks from the Division headquarters, but when they do it turns into a free-for-all on the box jump. All the heavy hitters were in attendence and flaunting their moves for the fashionable Milwaukee crowd. Mykel Larrin pictured doing a super-whip.

Koji Kraft is a world champion. You really can’t say that about a lot of people. He is highly skilled, doesn’t get the credit he is deserved, and might be the best show rider ever. Straight Indian.

Rollie Flasch has boost. In his first show of the summer he came out blasting. This is him with the kindness of keeping his face in the picture frame. When this photo was popped, he was still rising in the air. The shows were unreal. Thank you cans bar and Canteen!

Scot D

OG triple OG Scot Draper is on his way to Milwaukee for Summerfest. We are excited to have him home and bring the trails to the box…whatever that means. Picture stolen from liquorbmx.com

Don forget this weekend we have shows in Milwaukee for summer Solstice and at Bike Line in Naperville IL.

See you soon!
Hollar.

Tippy gets his…


Tippy will never get the recognition he deserves. He Is always down to help, and does it with a smile on his face. Ninja kick 3 whip from a longtime member. He’s also done this more than me.

All photos from the last few days stolen from Kurt at bmxunion.com and digbmx.com. He is wonderfuly talented peoples!

Verge Music Fest


Verge Music Fest went down this past weekend and Division Bmx was involved with providing riders and ramps for the street event. Several street assassins came from around the midwest to battle it out for cash money. Mykel, downwhip, awesome!


Jeff Dowhen is a Milwaukee local and knows his way around the 9 ft quarter better than anyone. Footjam at height. I was told he did a can can on the way in from this! Heat!


Mykel has serious boost and stretches his tricks further than anyone else. Don’t kid yourself though, he is more than a box jump ferret, he has street moves and placed just out of the top spots.


Taking top spot and all the riches was Division rider Wade Lajlar. He won both best trick and the street jam adding to his impressive contest resume. Keep an eye on this one.

Days and days of driving…


Division team is still driving back from Mexico and finding the most entertainment in Truck stops along the way. They help the sanity return because they are so outragous. Arizona for example.


This is the rear view snapshot. Cody Cavanaugh, Mykel Larrin and Micah Kranz. Drivaz!


This is a friendly reminder of the fun had last weekend. Mykel was a special guest in a Brazillian bicycle demonstration. Let me tell you Mykel had 40 pounds on the guy and he still rode a long long way. Be back to Milwaukee soon. Bmx is awesome!
