Ocotillo Wells

Brian DeeganAfter the rains in So Cal over the weekend everyone decided to load up for a mid-week trip to Ocotillo Wells with hopes of some nice wet dirt. While the dirt wasn’t as good as we had hoped (a little dry and dusty), we still had a solid crew out there ready to hit some kickers!

Twitch, Faisst, Lusk, Taka and Nate Adams headed out the night before and roughed it in Twitch’s motorhome so they could get to riding first thing in the morning. That didn’t work out so well since Deegan, Ox, Garland and Maddo all came out in the morning for a day trip and were the first to gear up and get on the bikes!

Twitch had a big step up that he wanted to hit near camp, so that was the first jump of the day. After a little shoveling it was prime to hit. Garland sacked up first and hit it…and he over jumped the shit out of it! Please see diagram below:

Here Twitch demonstrates how it’s done….

Next it was out to this off-camber spine jump, made famous by Clowers in some old Crusty movie. Twitch, Lusk and Maddo made quick work of this thing.

Lusk goin’ big on the spine. Get this photo as a wallpaper!

Robbie Maddison
Twitch and Lusk look on as Maddo pays homage to Evil Knievel with Evil’s patented boner air!

Brian Deegan
Deegan decided to keep it real and throw some old school flatty one leggers off this hip. Pretty sick. Get the wallpaper here.

Jeff Kargola
Ox threw down on the hip with a sketchy-ass sandy landing! Yes, once again, we have a wallpaper for ya!

Jeremy Twitch Stenberg
Nobody hits this jump like Twitch!

Jeff “OX” Kargola
Ox… this looks WAY bigger in person.

Twitch had Dawes and the crew out there getting some last minute footage for his upcoming video, Garth was out there from Transworld, and you know Tedesco got a ton of good stuff. All-in-all a sick trip! More to come…
