BMX ‘zines
A good write-up on ESPN by Nick Ferreira about the DIY mags still making rounds in the community. It’s nice to see the initiative some people take to create these; I’ve never had the attention span.
Airbag Helmet
Pretty crazy, though I think I’d rather wear an actual helmet. Using the accelerometer technology, this thing would probably inflate if you hopped a small gap.

Here’s a sequence I shot of Anthony Caraway in Cincinnati, Ohio back in June. The sequence ran in issue Four of CASE BMX so go check it out. Anthony’s only 15-years-old so I think he earned his respect with this move.
Diy Ringflash over at Unplggd.com
I am a huge DIY enthusiast and I have made a lot of light modifiers over the years. About a month ago i made my own DIY ringflash. I was wanting to document it but i got distracted. Low and behold over at http://www.unplggd.com there is a post with some instructions on how to make one. Its not the same way i made mine but it is still another very effective set up. Mine is also a lot bigger which would soften the light a wee bit more.
