Review // JIB: Tape Four

On Friday, January 20th, 2017 the fourth installment in the JIB mixtape series, ‘JIB: Tape Four’ premiered in a warehouse in the Port Richmond section of Philadelphia. For those of you who are unfamiliar, Jib is in their own words, a project that focuses on creating footage of riders that are living & riding in the Philadelphia area.

We expressed interest in reviewing the video for the website and purchased a copy through the Berks St. website. Jonathan Schimpf was kind enough to provide us with an early online viewing of the video to help expedite the review process. You can read the entire review, after the jump.

However, Alive just released Knick’s welcome edit which was filmed following his recovery from a recent knee surgery. Knick seems like he hasn’t even lost a step despite the fact that he’s already been back on his bike for a few months now.

Atown Trash Weng 2015 Flipcam

Shout out to Purcey for bringing me on to help post stuff on the Ride PA Site. For my first post I picked this new joint from Atown Trash featuring Weng. Atown is the home of Pennskate. Growing up as a kid, Pennskate was the first skatepark I went to, and Weng was one of the first locals I met. Psyched to see he is still out here shredding. One thing that jumped out at me was the sweet church style fence wall ride 43 seconds in. Tight!
