Thanksgiving Bowl Jam Video

November 29, 2021 by Purcey

Life Behind Grips has released a twenty-five-minute recap video from the Thanksgiving Bowl Jam held on 11/21 at the new Jordan Park Skatepark in White Hall, PA. The jam was hosted by Aeden Feher with support from several sponsors and attracted BMX riders from all over the tri-state area. The video covers the entire day of riding as well as the six contests held during the jam. Personally, the real highlight was watching Pablo Forllan go up the six stair rail to tailwhip back-to-back.

Two epic jams, squeezed into 48 hours the weekend of October 9-10, 2021. The trails were dialed and the S&M team was in town, it was bound to be a good time. Saturday, Catty Woods hosted their annual Halloween jam, complete with a costume contest and high air challenge on McRoast. The competition was steep, and Cory Foust walked away with the high air victory. Lou Delfino received the people’s award for “B.O.T.Y. (Bike of the Year)” Sunday was the start of a new Posh Woods jam, ‘Mosh at Posh’. The riders sessioned the Butcher jump with some of the best turndowns and tables I have ever seen! They were awarded ‘Best Table’- Tom Arkus, ‘Best Turndown’ – Eric Hennessy and ‘Raddest Rider’ – Clint Reynolds. Thankful the weather held for such an epic jam! Thank you to the trail’s locals for putting in so much hard work!

August 8, 2020 by Purcey

The annual GrindWorks BMX Pittsburgh Street Jam was held last Saturday, August 1st, and kicked off at Martin Luther King Jr. Elementary School before moving into the streets. After hitting a few spots, rain swept through the area forcing event-goers to seek refuge at a local spot under a bridge where the jam shifted into a DIY format. Despite the odds against them, including a global pandemic and mother nature, the jam was a success. Jake Aiken provided this year’s video, which he filmed and edited. Click play and check out what went down. Shout out to the GrindWorks crew for continuing to keep these events rolling.
