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.

Brady Street shows went down without a hitch and again this year the people of Milwaukee were treated to some hometown talent.  Pictured here is Mykel Larrin flipping over Joel Goltry.  We wish nothing but good vibes to Joel after his motorcycle accident.  He is recovering well and should be back in the swing of shows soon!  For the record, all photo’s in this section were stolen from photographers Steven Alexander and Bonnie DeLap.

Quinn Semling made a surprise appearance at the Brady Street Festival.  He was in Chicago riding in the Dew Tour Open and while visiting his family  decided to grace the Milwaukee crowd with one of their superstar son’s.  Here he is pictured in the middle of a 360, with a face only a mother can love.

Rollie Flash has a new bike and has rekindled his love for doing BMX shows once again.  He has been progressing the nothing variations lately and spinning 360’s with his eyes closed.  Take a look at the people’s faces at the bottom of the photo.  BMX shows extend to every age range.  BMX IS AWESOME!

J.J. Flairty has a passion for anything with handlebars and here he is with a BMX in his hands.  He always has a smile on his face and has never missed a Brady Street Festival.  He is simply doing an air on the face of the ramp but this picture shows how stylish J.J. is on his bike.  Not a limb off the body and still it is a great looking picture.  Awesome American flag in the background.  J.J. Flairty is BMX fun!

This picture is just too cool not to use.  Amazing angle of a Griz Air preformed by Mykel Larrin.  He does this trick on vert, in flips, and straight over box jumps.  May he never stop doing this trick, it just looks so good!

Mykel Larrin once again surprised everyone with a wild card invite to the Portland Dew Tour Wendy’s Invitational. He rode in the vert class and after a hard fall in his first run, he put together a full pull and placed top 15. Division Bmx is proud of Mykel and wish him further success in his Professional Career. Part time Division rider Kevin Porter also placed 15th respectively in Dirt Jumping.

Division announcer Micah Kranz once again threw down duties for espn. Here he is pictured with 4 time dew your champion Jamie Bestwick.

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!!!

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!

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.

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!
