Here we go again! Shit’s goin’ down and we’re here to tell you what’s up!

cam sinclair red bull x fightersOver the weekend they held the first round of the Red Bull X Fighters in Mexico City. Twitch pulled out, understandably, because he didn’t feel comfortable going and riding in Mexico City, which is known for being pretty damn sketchy. So the lone Mulisha representative was Cam Sinclair. Cam made it to the Semi Finals and placed 4th without the dub flip…solid! Congrats, Cam. Just wait ’til he has a good run-in and ramp…the dub flip is on!

Also over the weekend the Mulisha threw a huge show down in Puerto Rico. I haven’t received any updates from the guys over there, which leads me to believe they’re having a really good time and having way to much fun to bother with lame updates! If any of our Puerto Rican fans that saw the show have any photos, upload them and leave a link in the blog comments for all to see.

ESPN FMX is adding some nice production value to their content lately. Check this vid of Metal Mulisha MMA bad-ass Dan Henderson smacking around Myles Richmond! And check the video below of Hendo doing a little dirt biking at the Mulisha Compound! He has some solid skills for a beginer!

We just added some new guys to the team page. MMA fighters Dominick Cruz, Brodie Farber and Kyacey Uscola, as well as Supercross ringer Josh Grant.

ESPN also did a little update on the upcoming Grenade moto glove line and the Mulisha/Grenade colab glove that has already been out for a while. That made me realize that we just got done designing the next Mulisha glove!

metal mulisha grenadeWhile the current glove is one of the best gloves any of the riders have used, there are always ways to improve. So the second glove will be fine tuned and tested by the Mulisha and there will be 2 color ways to choose from…here’s a little (literally) sneak peek.

Attention Models! We have given Chris Tedesco the job of setting up photo shoots for monthly Mulisha Maidens on the web. You can find him lurking on Model Mayhem, so hit him up and you might get lucky and score…a photo shoot!

The Lucas Oil Off-Road Racing Series kicks off this weekend in Primm, NV, and Deegan will be out there racing. Ox, Fitz and Wes will be riding FMX demos all weekend as well, so cruise out and watch the Mulisha dominate on the track and in the pits!

Lusk Legacy FoundationThe Lusk Legacy Foundation Gala and Poker Tournament is in full swing and things are really shaping up for a great event. Check out the LLF web site for tickets and info. They lowered the ticket prices so it’s totally affordable now…especially for such a good cause.

Ok, that’s it.

Cam Sinclair
Crusty Demon CrashCam Sinclair has a sweet new web site! You should check it out. And he just got featured on the Australian news show A Current Affair where Cam and Bilko torture some dorky news guy in the foam pit. Good stuff. Next up for Cam…Red Bull X Fighters Mexico!

When taking a look back on the history of Metal Mulisha and our Decade of Domination, you can see how the X Games were a big part of spreading the Mulisha propaganda.

If you happened to catch the Speed Channel broadcast of the St. Louis Supercross, you saw how insane the track was. Pastrana was the celebrity course designer and it showed…the track looked like one from MX Unleashed! Josh Grant killed it all day long. He was a 3rd fastest in timed qualifying and placed 3rd in his heat. Josh grabbed the holeshot in the main event and took off. The only riders to pass him were Reed and Stewart. Congratulations Josh on your 3rd place finish in St. Louis!

If you can make it out there please do so. Check out lusklegacyfoundation.com for a bunch of photos, and you can find some videos here.

Jeff Kargola
Jeff KargolaThe SCORE San Felipe 250 was last weekend, and guess what? The Mulisha is well on it’s way to domination in yet another form of dirt biking! That’s right, Jeff “Ox” Kargola landed a Factory Honda Johnny Campbell Racing ride and proved he deserved it with a 2nd place finish in San Felipe with JCR teammate Quinn Cody. Ox said he knows they could have won, but a radiator problem with only 50 miles to go cost them the lead and about 15 minutes while fixing it in the pits. Anything can happen in Baja, and it usually does! Ox will be back in June for the Baja 500, hopefully on the JCR team, and racing for the win.

cameron steele trophy truck
Cameron Steele was down there doing his thing in the Trophy Truck. Unfortunately his thing this weekend was blowing up 2 transmissions at about 12 miles into the race. Bummer. Cameron is due for a big win…we’re predicting the Baja 500.

Trigger Gumm
Trigger Gumm was co-driving for Clyde Stout in his brand new bad-ass Trophy Truck. Clyde rolled the truck in a huge crash just 20 miles into the race, blowing 3 wheels off the truck! See the video here. His crew got everything fixed, got them back in the race, and Clyde and Trigger ended up finishing the race with less than a minute to spare. Congrats on the finish!

justin bean smith
Justin “Bean” Smith is a good friend of the Mulisha and was rocking the RIP LUSK stickers all over his single seat 1/2 1600 car. Looks like Bean had some good karma on his side (along with a lot of skill!) because he won his class by 25 minutes over the 2nd place car!
