IN PHOTOS - The SOURCE 'Straight to DVD' Trip

With Nathan Williams, Dan Lacey, Bruno Hoffmann & Corey Martinez

29 Oct 2019

This quarter in the back of a gem of Atlanta park is nearly perfect and provided endless fun for both Lacey and Nathan.

Bruno a few tries away from treating all of our eyes, and unfortunately only seconds away from you’re neighborhood super hero of a security guard stopping any chance of fun.

Bruno quick over tooth to warm up this gem of a rail

Nathan with the assist and block!

Bruno line ending in Atlanta with a dubs hard fake manual cab.

Corey always has something in mind, and sometimes that’s bad... but most the time the clever little guy often has a photographers spot in mind. Thanks for once again having an eye, and my back Corey.

Just when you thought Nashvilles perfect rail to pad had been beaten to death, Bruno come to town and Nathan comes back to town. both getting these tricks quicker then the rail should’ve allowed.

Lacey has one of those ice 180 you can just pick out from anywhere. Here he is giving us glimpse of his love for curved rails with a ice to over 180 in Nashville.

A quick stop to peep the Atlanta five block and even knowing it had been 360 prior and probably by numerous riders couldn’t stop Lacey from hitting at least one for the sake of fun.

Lacey must have done this dubs to hard 360 5 times perfect, but that's what separates the boys from men he kept at it until one felt just juiced and proper enough for his personal liking, not the cameras.

Lacey dodging security and rain with this quick-hit monster of a 360.

Bruno warming up the session on these infamous, and forgotten, Louisville hubbas.

Lacey giving this beaten as ledge a further beating with a proper hanger through it.

Corey keeping it simple and clean with a quick hop over the ledge and bench.

Bruno up and 180 over the planter to end the session before heading to the skatepark.

You’re favorite riders favorite riders all have permanent Kankles, and all for the love of it. Those 360 come at a price for Mr. Lacey.

What started out as Source TM Tom Creasy saying,“Hey we are going to SwampFest want to come?”, quickly turned into a trip that reminded me of nothing but old times. Sure, it wasn’t the riding trips I’ve become more used to these days, but more of a 'glory trip', which are often the best ones anyhow. However, nowadays with the ever increasing demand for content and daily internet bangers, keeping up with online expectations is serious business (however much I enjoy shooting them). Somehow though Creasy had masterminded a trip where he thought it'd be best to do just the opposite.

With Lacey, Nathan, Bruno, Creasy and Coxie already set to be at SwampFest, Corey to pick up along the way, and a new warehouse to check out in Louisville, it just worked out. The crew was ready to go on another trip together with only the expectations to shoot, drive, and enjoy it as much as possible whilst Coxie filmed much of the riding and good times along the way, for the Source STRAIGHT TO DVD project. This all worked for me as I'm always more than willing to sit in a van between whatever stops and laugh our asses off with off with friends all day.

Thanks for all the good times and stories boys, and sorry for the shaky super raw IN THE CUT but best to keep it simple when you’re a photographer with a vloggers camera. Creasy, you did promise us all jet-skis but that never happened, so I’m personally holding you to that promise. Now watch the video, peep the photos then go jump in a car with a few of your friends and just enjoy. You know what, screw it, skip the video, the IN THE CUT, and the photos; get out from behind that monitor NOW and go ride or enjoy a trip with your friends. After all, that’s what BMX is all about - good times and friends. More internet bangers to come... - KEVIN CONNERS
