From the second Cory Nastazio walks in the room he sends off an unmistakable energy that makes you want to watch and be a part of the circus that accompanies his life. He has had countless reality shows, has been on TMZ, and come back from so many life threatening injuries that there is no doubting he lives his life in a way authors write about.

Yet it is what Cory has done on his bike that defines the character he is once he gets off it. Originally from Florida he was one of the fastest kids on the track and once he found his comfort zone in dirt jumping there was no looking back. He isn't known for having a huge trick list, but the tricks he does are always jump higher, stretch farther, and overall done better than anyone else out there. He has been rewarded with victories from several dirt jumping contests and whenever he wants to take a contest seriously, he places near the top. Outside of the contest circuit you can see him riding his own trails, which are, at any given time, the largest jumps in Southern California.

Everyone has a story about being with Cory. When he is around, something truly unforgettable is going to happen, be it on or off his bicycle.

Doyle Wins Vans Kill The Line

9/8/12

The French know how to build some crazy dirt jumps and Chris Doyle knows how to ride them. Legendary Chris Doyle won the 2012 Vans Kill the Line with classically smooth riding and 2 perfectly dialed runs that showed signature Doyle style with 360 turndowns and crowd-pleasing inverts. Michael “Hucker” Clark was the only rider to flip the stepdown and took second place with burly moves, consistent runs and big tricks. Last year’s winner TJ Ellis climbed the podium again with a 3rd place finish thanks to runs that consisted of flip trick variations through the middle set of jumps. Simon Moratz from Germany took home the “UNIT Best Trick” and 1,000 Euro Prize money. Check out the video that Soul BMX Magazine put together from this rad event.

Journeys Backyard BBQ BMX Demo

6/14/12


Journeys King of Prussia Photos

6/11/12

This past weekend Nasty, Gary Young, Scotty Cranmer, Ali Whitton and Ryan Guettler were in PA for the Journeys BBQ.

The boys put on two shows to a very enthusiastic crowd. Scotty was all over the ramp, blasting airs close to 8ft on the mellow 5ft ramp. Scotty even kicked a flair whip and pulled it. His first since 2007! Tailwhips either way, straight double Barspin airs and all the lip tricks in the world. Scotty put on a show!

Gary Young still rode good considering he has been out a month with a shoulder injury. Love his tables! Gary is expecting his first child so his phone was close by at all times. X Games is coming up in two weeks, lets hope Gary can still ride it.

Ali had a bit of trouble with flair's and when he finally got one he rode off the side of the 40ft ramp. He was having a good time though! Ali does really good Indian air's!

Guettler came off a Colony trip straight into a long flight out to the east coast for the demo's and still managed to pull no foot can flairs and some cool lip tricks like Hurricanes and Lawnmowers. A fan had Ryan sign his bike, it was a Guettler signature Mirra-Co from 2006!

Nasty dog Cory Nastazio took care of the early morning news show and local newspaper interviews on behalf of the Vans team. The kid is too famous! He rode the demo's but smashed his ankle flipping the smallest hip in history in show 1, so he was chillin for the 2nd demo. Good to see Nasty ride some ramps though.

It was such a good weekend thanks Micah Krans for announcing, all the fans for attending and Journeys for having us.

There's still a few stops left, check the Journeys BBQ site to catch the next one, unfortunately the Vans BMX team only hit the King of Prussia stop so if you missed us, see you next year!
