Lots of good stuff in here from the Vancouver homies including some titties, Greg Henry about to get a beej, and some shit that you probably think is grimey but is nothing compared to a Winnipeg alley. Oh, there’s some riding in there too.
Make sure to hit up Tenpack to see some photos from Tenpack’s journey through the prairies. There are definitely some good photos in there of Andrew Jackson, Greg Henry, Greg Flag, Jaumell Campbell, and Sam Lowe. As well as photos of all the shops / local homies / etc that they saw along the way.
I have a pretty good cache of photos from their trip here as well, but I’m not posting them.
Sam Lowe is a badass. He’s got an interview up on Wethepeople that you can check out right here.
Ah, well look at that. Two Canadian shredders getting the bump to Primo’s pro team.
John Heaton is nuts, Lee Dennis is a monster, and Sam Lowe is the boss. Check out those Canadian shredders along with the other Primo cats in this web edit of scraps from Nice Try.
Sam Lowe has an interview over on BMXUnion. Lots of good Canadians getting coverage over there lately.
I didn’t go to university and I have never really been interested in anything else. The only thing that I have ever wanted to do aside from bmx is someday go chase tornado’s.
Hah, that was the highlight for me. I’m not taking shots, it just seems fitting that some badass rail boss would want to do something crazy like following a tornado around if he wasn’t riding bikes.

This link from DIG appeared on RED the other day after appearing on DIG almost six months ago, but seeing it again reminded me of how badass Sam Lowe is. He came up in conversation the other day, and we all agreed that the ad above is what comes to mind when you hear his name. Read what David has to say about him, and check him out in Nice Try.
A while ago, I was shooting a photo with someone. They called the trick out, but were having second thoughts and were on the verge of backing out. Then Sam Lowe stepped in and told the guy that everyone knew he was scared. Now I’m paraphrasing, but Sam said that being scared, and saying “fuck it” was pretty much what BMX was about. The technical side of riding BMX is easy, finding something that scares the shit out you and conquering fear, is basically why we’re on these bikes. Now, I wouldn’t hold Sam to it, maybe he was just fucking with the guy’s head to make him step up. Either way, sincere or not, what Sam said stuck with me because I think it’s at least partially true of Sam’s riding. The technical aspects of bike riding do come easily to him, and he steps up his riding to the point that it scares the shit out of the people around him. As much as I assume it scares him, it’s a grave day indeed when he backs down from something he called out. – David H.
