The NIKE program seems to keep yo guys busy. How was the demo at the Nike facility?
Nike always has some stuff going on with us. Two weeks ago was Migration where everybody that rides for Nike 6.0 comes to Portland, OR for like 5 days and there is not one moment of boredom LOL. I only got to go for pretty much one day to do the demo then I had to bounce. For the demo they built a whole street course at the headquarters for all of us to session in front of tons of people.
Do you work close together with the NIKE development team on shoes, colorways, etc?
They are really open to hear what we think 100 percent! Nike is real cool because all they want to do is switch things up every few weeks. They have developed colorways from our input, so that’s cool.
Nike seems to be storming on the scene with their 6.0 program how is it to get all that support?
Well I’m really stoked on that because the 6.0 program is still really new, just like all the riders on the Team- Garret, Dennis and Nigel and myself. It’s a true Honor to be team-mates with those guys, and we travel a lot as a crew. We are pretty much growing with the Nike6 Program, I know I’m gonna be with them for a LONG TIME!
Anything interesting in the works?
NIKE 6.0 BMX Video! We have been filming for about a year and traveling all over the place. Everybody’s part is gonna be sick, but people are gonna Fall out of their chair after Garret Reynolds’ Part (FULL RESPECT)
Where can people check out the new NIKE site?
Nike6.com is where it’s at.
Spinner, Guettler, Sylvester and Mirra have been getting ready for the X-Games all week. It is a huge event with camera’s everywhere and a crowd that will go wild. The SuperPark set-up is looking tight. Not too crazy (for X-Games stands) but tight and full of trannie. No time to pedal around and chill. It is wall to wall with a cradle, two bowl sections, a spine, some walls so it does take some getting used to indeed.
