Sunburn at a Livi Jam! Surely not! Yes that's right, the Livingston skatepark jam went off last Saturday, organised by the now infamous DSAB crew, and some how they even managed to get the sun to come out! Good job guys. With comp titles such as 'best trick bars backwards' and 'best trick in the buff' and with Capn Colin at the helm you know its not going to be your average BMX jam . The emphasis was definitely on fun and certainly not on tailwhips. The days highlights included, Dave(Paul) the Sword killing the wall ride with fufanus and abubacas on a wall with a 20ft drop on the other side!, BSD's Grant Smith and Blantyre local Skitzo battling it out for highest air measured on the boaby-o-meter in the big bowl and the appearance of Capn Colin in a thong! All in all it was a great turn out and everyone had a fun day. Congrats to the DSAB team for putting on a superb jam and I know we are all looking forward to see what they will have in store for us next year....

Dave is off the bike for a couple of months after breaking his ankle trying a fence gap at Perth skatepark. While he's not riding expect some video edits to appear in the coming weeks including an edit of Dave riding at his local park in Edinburgh and a web edit going on the Dig site featuring the BSD summer trip in Scotland that will coincide with the mag article. Get well soon Dave!

Dave Sowerby just sent over a web edit of the Vans team riding TransgressionPark in Edinburgh. Dave was lucky enough to get the chance to film them on Monday night riding the park that he designed and the Edinburgh locals built. Chase Hawk, Dylan Smith, Sean Sexton, Niki Croft, Ben Hennon and Baz Keep were just a few of the riders in attendance for the first day of the Vans 'Off The Wall BMX tour'. Check out Dave's edit here >>

We're in Glasgow and just about to start day 5 of our Scottish summer tour. So far we've ridden Livingston, Edinburgh, Penicuik, Aberdeen, Dundee and Dumbarton and the riding has been insane. Even though we're only on day 5 Kriss Kyle has done about 3 months worth of riding, He just doesnt stop. Chaz has been propositioned by girls and boys and the French Warrington contingent has shut down the Glasgow streets.

Here are a few video grabs of Anto, Kriss and Chaz... wait 'til you see the footage...

Dave Sowerby just got back from Ride UK BMX Mags 'Ride to Glory' road trip with Proper Bikes. The trip started at Unit23 skatepark and then Proper headed East to session at Transgression Park in Edinburgh and Penicuik skatepark. On their way down south to the finish line in Hastings they were arrested trying to ride a full pipe in an M.O.D facility, redecorated countless passing cars in mayonnaise and ketchup, discovered a few shocking truths about Marv and drove the van through team Volumes height poles (oops!) Check out a few screen grabs and photos Dave sent over and look out for the full story and cover mounted DVD in Augusts Ride Mag...

There's no rest for Dave though as the BSD roadtrip around Scotland kicks of tomorrow in Edinburgh (Weds 10th June) with the arrival of Julien Leyreloup, Antony Lille and Vincent Perraud. Hope to see you at a spot around Scotland during the coming week and keep an eye on the site for updates during the trip. Reet!

We'd like to introduce Sean Lafferty. Sean has been ripping it up lately around the Glasgow area and we feel he'll be a great addition to our team. Welcome aboard Sean - blast out the madness!

As part of the tour we’re having a BSD party at Unit 23 on the evening of Saturday 14th June, this is a riding party NOT a competition so please turn up with your bike for a fun night of bikes, beer and burgers. Hope to see y’all there.

Julien Leyreloup, Antony Lille and Vincent Perraud are arriving from France on Wednesday 11th June for our Scottish summer tour. Livingston, Penicuik, Edinburgh , Aberdeen , Dundee, Perth , Glasgow and Unit 23 will all be sessioned. So watch out for these guys plus Simon Gibb, Dean Evans, Dave Sowerby, Chaz Mailey, Kriss Kyle and others at your local spots.

Joining them that weekend in Glasgow are the two Warrington street legends Mike ‘ Jersey ’ Taylor and Mike ‘Nailz’ Naylor. All of the tour will be filmed and you’ll see the best of it on the website soon.

Once again Mingo at 20twenty hosted another amazing day, some of the Scottish BSD team were in full effect at the jam including local boy Simon Gibb, Chaz Mailey, Mad Mick, Dean Evans and new recruit Kriss Kyle. John Bailey and Grant filmed the day and you can see Dave Sowerby's edit of the footage here>>

The new bowl is basically a bigger version of the now defunct Little Devil bowl and it's had it’s fair share of rad sessions already now. Here’s our new advert which is in the latest Ride UK featuring Unit 23 local Chaz Mailey boosting the hell out of this wooden behemoth.

We're having a bowl party there on Saturday evening 14th June when some of the French team will be in town, watch this space...

Unfortunately the French flying freestyle frog David Lombard won't be at the party but check out his photofeature on Woozy here>>

In these plentiful days of plenty skateparks we must remember to pay homage to the original creation that is Livingston. This legendary park was built in 1980 probably long before some of you were even born and to this day remains to be one of the best parks around. Here are a couple of pics of Grant and Parky riding the tight vert bowl on their first trip there this year.

Simon is not long back from a trip Stateside where he managed to get knocked down by a car straight from a kinked handrail, hopefully we'll see that footage on here soon. In the meantime check out these pics of Aberdeen's favourite emo BMXer schralping some of the city's older spots...
