Pic Six….. with Tim Turner

tailwhips — Mon, 09 Jan 2012 05:09:34 +0000

Pic Six… is an idea that we have had for awhile. There are a lot of rider/photographers-filmers that are producing some great stuff without much notice. So we hope to do our part in helping shed some light and expose them when we can. First up…..Tim Turner. Tim Turner is a New Bedford based BMX rider and photographer. Tim sent over 6 of his favorite photos along with answers to a short interview. TW

Chris Childs.... monster table over the channel. I risked getting hit 4-5 times to snag this picture. But it was worth it

Here’s a short interview with Tim…..

Age: 20

From: Lakeville MA. currently living in New Bedford, MA.

Current set up: Canon EOS Rebel T3i, with a battery grip, I use my 18-55mm alot and I have 2 Nikon SB-24′ speedlights with transmitters.

Plans for the future: I am just doing this as a hobby, but if something came out of it , that would be an amazing outcome.

Next piece of gear your looking to get: Not really sure, probably a better fisheye lens.

Favorite place to shoot: New Bedford overpass at dusk or night.

Favorite photographer, or any influences: I don’t have a favorite, but I’m inspired by independent photographers.

This is…. Jacob Hammond

This is … Jacob Hammond.

Jacob Hammond as..."himself"

Jacob is a 10 year old shredder from Holbrook Mass. I have seen Jacob ripping up Skater’s Edge, in Taunton MA., a bunch of times and have always wanted to take the time to shoot a few pictures. He is a true mini-pro, always down to do “just one more” .. It can take me a few tries sometimes.

Jacob giving the older guys something to think about.

So many to choose, and so little space.....

Jacob was such good sport that we ended up with so many good shots. It’s easy to see why Jacob has done so well in every contest that he has entered. Thanks for the inspiration Jacob….keep shredding… I am sure we will shoot again soon. Scott

A Bit of a New Start….

tailwhips — Sat, 13 Aug 2011 05:03:14 +0000

A little while back, my “pc” based laptop crashed in a big way. Most everything that I had ever edited, or converted, for the old Tailwhips.org site was lost. Logos, photos, files etc. Most of the original files were backed up, but not the content for the site. So from that loss comes this new beginning. For awhile we had been trying to use both the Tailwhips.org and the Cranks and Banks platforms to bring our “message. Now they will be combined into this one site. We are very excited to have everything in one place and hopefully bring some great new content out in the coming weeks. Here’s a few photos from a sessiion at Barnstable SP.

Yes… We will be featuring scooters too !

A new home for Tailwhips.org

tailwhips — Thu, 04 Aug 2011 11:27:10 +0000

The “cranks and banks site” will be the new “temporary home” home for Tailwhips.org. Our last site was out of date and becoming difficult to use( on our end), so there will be some changes coming here soon. TW

As of lately

I’ve been working quite a bit, riding and doing alot of band things.

At the shop I work at Union Cylce in Attleboro, Ma 77 pleasant st ( http://www.unioncyclebmx.blogspot.com/) and we are having crazy deals on last years Fit parks, Trl, and Techs and also on alot of Mirracos. We’ve chopped off 100 bucks on some! So if you know someone who wants a sweet deal on a bike come check us out!

Some other news that’s happening is that I will be receiving my flow package from Orchid sometime this week! Super stoked on that and everything bikes! The weather has been pretty awesome out so I hope you’re all out killing it!

Last thing I’ve been up to is my band Remainder, we have pre orders up on our new album “The Frozen World Thawed” If you like fast loud music you should give us a chance! www.remainderma.bandcamp.com

shred on!!
