Mike “Hucker” Clark has been busy putting in work on this full length edit for some time now with fellow rider and filmer, Matt Cordova. Hucker lays downs some heavy moves from dirt, park and ditches. Don't let that "Hucker" laid back personality fool you, he's all business in this one!

With the Olympic Games coming up shortly, a lot of the athletes have built up a special bike for the event that they worked towards to for 4 years, actually 5 for the Tokyo edition. Customization is always a fun project. Colour matching with the best part on the market usually results in very nice equipment. The fact that 'Rule 50' needs to be followed for the Games makes it a challenge sometimes but it's good to see the colours of the nation back in the colours of the bikes. Here's James Palmer's bike. Canada represent.
