Did you know that owner of Riva Motorsports, Dave Bamdas is a fanatic skateboarder? He is still having fun from time to time in Florida. The photo says is all after a fun day at the Skatepark of Tampa! He finished 3rd place in the old guys division for round 1 of the 2012 Grind for Life series. Well done Dave.

We know already the Rick Roy has been working on many new ideas. Among other things he has developed a new pump and pump cone assembly of the XF-S which is well covered technically in the particular photo. Meanwhile it has not been confirmed whether the new larger pump is stainless steal or titanium. Soon, we will reveal some of Rickter’s new parts and accessories, so stay tuned.

Here is what Jettribe dealers are getting next year. These make it easier to display on their counter tops. The company found out that the sunglasses and goggles can be sold easier when they are on a proper display this is the reason behind the new see-through casing. Sales may rise even 116% in some countries like Japan. By the way the famous Jettribe Carbon Fiber Goggles (cf frame/revo +case) were sold out.

It was published in the past that Craig Warner’s race seat was prepared specifically by Jettrim although Craig Warner was officially sponsored by Hydro Turf. Kawasaki hired Jettrim to build his World Finals seat but the Havasu based company couldn't put its name on it. Jettrim CEO Gary Hart puts it in his own words “I actually did it for Kanamori and Joe Heim. It was our typical lightweight Lee Manvell carbon seat with Craig's specific instructions on materials and shape. Craig was very respectable and grateful...”

Multi National Endurance-Offshore Champion, Mike Follmer and Glenn Dickinson of R&D often go on the Californian hills on their mountain bikes. Glenn has stated in the past that he is not a fan of MTB but he likes being on his bike when friends are around too. As far as we know they are training due to an interesting ride that they plan to have in Havasu before the Mark Hahn 300 race.

Louis, Malone Team Manager had one of the Thailand King's Cup Race Jersey professionally stretched and mounted in a museum quality shadow box frame all glass and the coolest part is the rear is glass also and the window is cut out so through the glass you can see all the signatures. According to Jettribe it is crated and leaving for TiAL sport in Michigan today as a token of our gratitude for the help in the 2011 race season for Jeremy and Christine. A great way to say a big thank you to a valuable sponsor.

Last year during the Mark Hahn 300 race weekend we had published exclusively the first seat cover Jettrim ever made for 300X. It was actually used on Marmon’s race craft. The illustrated seat cover was also made by Jettrim and shipped to Japan. It features three different mats, all of them have the carbon type finish and Jettrim has crafted stitching flames on the upper part of the seat. Another great seat cover by Jettrim.
