ABQ DNV Eat the Streets Jam 2015 - Albuquerque

Eat the Streets isn't over yet! Stop number 2 of this original series...

11 Aug 2015

Alex Gonzales - Alex spent most of the day filming but you can't hold back this guy from his bike for too long on a day like this, hop whip into a huge bank!

Ring leader Mario Carrasco hands out handfuls of ABQDNV stickers all day at the jam, it's so refreshing to see kids get excited about these little things!

Adam Accardi - Double peg down the rail to bar spin. Just one of many moves Adam laced down this rail!

Dallas Martinez - Coming down to Albuquerque from Denver to have fun with everyone for this leg of the jam series, Dallas has a smile on the whole time including this over grind to start off the day at spot one! Photo : Eddy Welsh

These guys right here are true original Albuquerque riders... Simon, Ray Romo, Gilbert Montoya and Danimal Pedersen. Holding down the peanut gallery from a shady spot off to the side, yet still not out of ear shot from everyone else!

Andres Velasco - Joining the party and coming down from Santa Fe wastes no time getting to work from spot to spot. Here Andres keeps it chill with a picture perfect toboggan over the rail!

Adam Accardi - High speed bar spin over the rail, payin homage to the filmer Alex Gonzales...

Dallas tempted riders all day with this $100 bill to go craier than they thought they could go!

Mario Carrasco - Taking a break from filming duties to hype up the crowd of riders with this man sized double peg on the out ledge.

Adam Accardi - Big 180 over tree rail to warm up for something bigger, soon after Adam snapped his crank arm and pushed around the rest of the day!

Mario Carrasco - Wall ride over the rail, as I scramble to snag the composition.

Adam Accardi - After a heavy session, a cigarette break is well appreciated.

O'Doyle - If you know anything about the roots in Albuquerque, then you probably know that O'Doyle Rules! Gap past the skate stoppers to this steep and fast hanger!

The cost of a good time... Broken crank arms are better than broken limbs any day!

Kyle Livingston - This guy right here is as Albuquerque as it gets and it would't be the same jam without him! Big and fast 360 over the rail!

Alfred Flores - Hardflip over the rail. Alfred is one of our closest homies on a skateboard, it's a great feeling to have skaters at both jams so far, shredding and having fun with everyone!

Dallas, Adam and Kenjoe take a break from the heat and join the onlooking crowd to cheer on their fellow shredders!

The must have photo for any street jam, nearly 75-100 riders swarmed and shut down intersections to get from spot to spot!

Brian Quintana - Nice slow hanger to start a line at one of the last spots of the day. This kid is getting better by the day so watch out for 'Paco'!

Christian Mike - This rail isn't as easy as it looks, sketchy in it's own way, that doesn't derail Christian from lacing this buttery feeble down the rail.

Adam and myself in selfie mode!

Thankfully APD didn't live up to their violent reputation on this day... We just kept it moving!

180 wall ride from this unknown shredder smiling about the event the whole day!

The monumental bike stack!

Alfred Flores puts down his skateboard, takes a break from hardflips and does a backflip at the end of the day to get the evening fired up!

Eddy Welsh, Mario Carrasco, Joe Poisson, Kenny Garcia and Derek Prada enjoy the cool beers after a long hot day riding bmx with friends through the city!
