Back Wheel: Odyssey Hazard 48h 14mm
Front Wheel: Odyssey Hazard Light 48h 14mm
Freewheel: Garbage
Tires: Odyssey or something
Modifications: I didn't pay for anything but the sprocket 6 bucks from Dans (shhhhh). Im riding my back up wheel because i just destroyed my regular one.. back up is a 9 year old Eastern hub and Alex rim. Uhhhhh most parts are Nation's excess shit parts that no one wants, or parts my friends broke and i made due with. I'm designing a new hub that will be released by Mirraco including special aeronautic space engineering bearings. My bike is around 35 pounds and if thats too heavy for you maybe you should stop crying and start rollerblading. Bald tires for less friction and i took 5 or 6 spokes out of the back wheel while grinding for a lighter feel. Paint job.. well while riding full speed down a deserted forest highway three hundred years ago an elk became wary of my motives and in efforts to stop my momentum splattered its blood across my headtube.. its a messy job but it worked out when i sold the recipe to jagermeister and became a millionaire..

Htown Late Session part6




The first few photos in here were going to be a cantstopthekicks ad. Just kidding, i kicked my shoe off at spam and then he tried to throw it past me, i caught it obviously being the baseball superstar I am. The other photos are self explanitory except the hand, Al Dimino said he didnt want his photo up on the NationBMX blog because Dans Competition would stop sending him his 10grand monthly checks.

Htown Late Session part5









Heres our man spam. Hes back from fucking Illinois for good. He said he missed hackettstown late night session so he had to come back, nahmean? Here he does a few wild lookbacks, a tag team invert with joof, a bunnyhop tbog(i took the photo late) and hes also shown with his straightedge bars and none other then our main man from bayonne, nj ROACHY!

Htown Late Session part4







This is my best friend JOOF aka Jeff Kennedy, hes probably your myspace friend and youve probably commented his rail photos and said "nice job", what you guys dont know is hes an amazing all around bike rider and a fucking riot to ride with. This is his spotlight post, hes shown doing a variety of tricks and i think everything but the invert was pulled first try, a cameramans DREAM.

Htown Late Session part3







Here are some photos of our boy Gary Nilson. Hes a little Corey Martinez, downside ice on the sub, barspins and tailwhips everywhere, even a fakie whip last night, he did a barspin with some help of spam coaching him. That picture of the kid with yellow pegs is local hackettstown legend STINKY, he recently made the switch to yellow pegs after seeing all day 100000 times and studying every edwin shot. Thanks for making my night stinky

Htown Late Session part2







Here are some photos of Bri Guy and Anthony Villani, and Paino. Paino tried a flair early in the session and broke like 20spokes or something so this is the only photo i took of him riding on Rob Darfens bike. The photos of Bri Guy are a hangover toothpick and a footjam. Anthony Villani is shown here doing a backwards manual and a chainless fufanu and him after falling on a 360, he wasnt having a very good night.

Htown Late Session part1









Today me(steve croteau), spam(nick ponterio) and andrew paino drove to anthony villanis hometown Hackettstown, NJ for the latenight skatepark session. Its the first of many for the winter I guess, brings everyone together for some indoor bike riding fun. Tonight was dope, plenty of people came out, and tons of photos/video were shot. I shot all the photos because im still building a new bike as I type this. So here are some of the faces from tonight.
