The Past Weeks in Review

Damn, there has been a lot of shit going on lately and I don’t even know where to start. I get so much stuff sent in from all the guys, whether it’s Deegan with photos of his kids, Potter and Fitzpatrick with stories of drunken debauchery, sales guys wanting to sell tee shirts to the masses, Fluffer (who happens to be the new Mulisha Marketing Director (congrats buddy!)) always having random junk to pump up, keeping up with all the goods on EXPN, Osiris, etnies and more–holy shart! If we posted everything as it comes in this site would be a mess! So here ya go, a random week-ending mashup of everything Metal Mulisha from the last few weeks or so…I think.

Here Manley throws his best modeling pose with Deegan, Chaz and possible MM recruit Factory Yamaha's Josh Hill at the Poker Tournament...hmmm....?

First up, the Third Annual Chris Ackerman Poker Tournament! The first couple years of this event went off big with FMX demos, Baja 1000 drawings and all sorts of activities revolving around the tournament. This year, unfortunately, due to some last minute scheduling problems it was a last minute kind of deal. The poker tournament had a good turnout and we had some really cool items up for auction, some that will be on eBay as well…we will give you links to them soon.

Cheers to a job well done.

A few weeks back Potter and Fitzpatrick got into some mess. We were going to keep it under wraps, but I figured it was alright to let people know since Potter started calling and giving me shit because photos weren’t on the site yet, so here it is. Potter and Fitz were out tearing up the town, jumping from bar to bar, driving fast and taking chances in Jimmy’s mom’s car–standard shit for these two. Well, Jimmy got squirrely and whiskey throttled his mom’s ride right through some unsuspecting person’s garage! What’s that huge crack in the windshield from you ask? That is from Potter’s hard ass head! Luckily everyone was just fine and safe–except of course Jimmy’s driving record and insurance rate–those are fucked!

Brian Deegan Inked Magazine

Yep, Deegs has a Mulisha helmet tiled into his guest house shower!

I know a lot of you are into tattoos, just look at the Metal Mulisha Tattoo Gallery! That’s why it is no wonder that Deegan, Twitch, Faisst and the guys were just featured in the November issue of Inked Magazine. Check it out on newsstands now.


Shameless product promotion. Buy our shit!

DeeganWe told you about the 777 Fest demo that Deegan was at with Lusk, Garland, Fitz and others riding the ramp-to-ramp demo. Here are a couple photos and go to the Mulisha MySpace page to check a video from the event that someone posted in the comments.

Who’s that kid Deegan is holding to the right? It’s another kid named after him…little Deegan!

Hmm, what else?

Faisst just got surgery a couple days ago on his knee. They repaired his ACL and meniscus. Faisst will be out for a while, but you can bet when he returns he will come out swinging!

X Games Dubai got canceled. Not sure why, but no one is going anymore.

Oh, speaking of MySpace, we also have a Mulisha Facebook page. And a YouTube. And a new site called FastClips. Check ‘em.

Lamar LeCock

Lamar get full extension on this move!

Election day was on Tuesday. Deegan sent in this photo of a Prop 8 protester that showed up on his property to show his moves on a scooter. Turns out he was pro scooter rider Lamar LeCock. I don’t think his protests worked very well, but his moves were legit!

Deegan Quad

Quad nac on a big ol' kicker!

Here’s something you will probably (hopefully) never see again. Deegan charging a quad around the track! haha. Or is he cross training for a new X Games event? You will have to wait and see…jk!

halloween

Badasses

Halloween! Honestly, is there any holiday better than Halloween? You have a built in excuse to look like an idiot, and every chick dresses up like a hot little ho. Amazing. Potter threw a Halloween party at his house–check what the guys were rocking.

Fluffer’s birthday was a couple days before Halloween and he had a rager at his San Clemente compound. The night was a blurr, and this pic pretty much sums up the night. Happy Birthday Fluffy.


If you haven’t checked out the team page for a while then now is the time. We’ve updated some contest results and stats on the guys’ pages, but the biggest addition is the music section with Machine Head! More Mulisha bands are coming soon so stay on the look out!

ox

Ox enjoying a Tec8 after the Baja 500. Hopefully it will be a victory beer after this year's 1000!

Ever since the Baja 500 earlier this year, Jeff the OX has been full Baja guy. The Ox is down there right now bush whacking it and pre-running for the Baja 1000 next week. Ox is teamed up with Grant Steele and Max Eddie for the 629 mile loop from Ensenada, through Baja, and back to Ensenada. Oh yeah, and they will be the first bike off the start line! We’ll post coverage after the race!

derek garland whip sequence

Garland getting silly on the new hip!

There’s a killer new super kicker hip jump at Deegan’s house…and we posted a huge photo gallery fully of upside down whip awesomeness.

Ok, that’s about it. That should hold you over for at least a little bit!

Firsthand’s & M80’s!

EXPN alerted us to a bunch of killer full Fuel TV episodes. Here are the Mulisha’d out ones with Deegan, Faisst, Twitch and Garland!

Twitch Interview

twitchetnies just posted a cool video interview with Twitch. The interview is from before the LG contest and Twitch predicted his win!

Random .gifs!

I just found some sweet sequences that were just begging to be made into .gifs…so, here they be. Enjoy.

LG Action Sports - Twitch Repeats!

Twitch
Jeremy Twitch StenbergThe LG Action Sports FMX World Championships is always a good show and always has one of the most difficult and technical course of the year. This year’s course featured a dirt 6 pack, a ramp to dirt double double section, and one stand alone ramp jump. The field of 12 riders consisted of 7 Mulisha riders! The birthday boy, Twitch, came into this event wanting to give himself the perfect birthday present by winning his second LG event in a row. Ox, Potter, Faisst and Cam were eliminated in the first head-to-head round, with Twitch, Lusk, and Maddo moving on. Unfortunately, Lusk and Maddo’s hopes of winning their first LG World Championship would end in round 2. Both were really close but when it’s left up to the judges you never know what they’re gunna do!

Robbie Maddison - TwitchTwitch advanced to the three man finals with Beau Bamburg and Adam Jones. The technical course design limited the amount of big banger tricks, leaving it up to smooth style, tricking on every jump including the smaller hip jumps, and flawless execution…all skills that Twitch has mastered! Twitch threw down a solid run with a good variety of right side up tricks and throwing a flip variation off of each dirt jump in the dirt 6 pack including the hips that go into the big dirt doubles! This gave him the edge over Jones and Bamburg, allowing him to take home his second straight LG Championship! Needless to say, it was one hell of a birthday for Twitch! Congrats!

Check out the HUGE Photo Gallery for the LG Action Sports!

LG Action Sports This Weekend!

Jeff KargolaThe LG Action Sports FMX World Championships is this weekend! This is always a solid event with some big ass jumps. Twitch is the defending champ so he’s looking for a repeat for sure, but Lusk, Potter and Maddo have been on their game lately, while Faisst, Ox, Taka, Sincs, Garland and Fitz are looking to qualiy and make a statement! It’s gunna be good so make it out to the LA County Fairgrounds in Pomona and check it.

All the guys were out at Deegan’s house yesterday practicing for the contest…just so happens we shot a shit load of photos and put them up for your enjoyment! Check it!

You Decide: TransWorld FMX Rider of the Year Awards!


Go to TransWorld MX and VOTE for the FMX Rider of the Year! 4 out of the 9 riders are Metal MulishaTwitch, Robbie Maddison, Jeremy Lusk and Todd Potter! Maddo has a big lead right now, but keep voting because you never know what could happen. Keep the Mulisha riders on top because, in any order, they deserves to go 1, 2, 3 & 4!

Here’s a quick list of accomplishments we put together from this year for each guy. Hopefully we didn’t forget any, but we probably did since there are so damn many!

And while you’re at it, we think you should VOTE for Jason Lawrence for Racer of the Year. Although he’s not a Mulisha team rider, he won the 125 West and then got kicked out of the AMA Outdoor Series in full Mulisha style. Plus, we think it would be sick if J-Law upset James Stewart for the win!

Metal Mulisha Rocks ASR!

ASR Trade Show is the bi-yearly big dick competition between all the lame-ass brands out there in the “industry.” Everyone gets drunk, parties too hard for their britches, and goes home with a moral hangover. Somewhere in between all the debauchery, sales guys try to sell their junk. Most brands don’t sell shit ‘cuz they just plain suck, and make fools of themselves because they’re not used to staying up past bedtime drinking.

The Mulisha is a whole other story. We’ve been partyin’ wide open for 10 years! Now our shit sells itself…which gives us even more time to go BIG! We can’t speak of the after hours stupidity, but here are a few photos from the show and a video of our ESP Guitars giveaway! HUGE thanks to our bro Adam Duce, the bass player from Machine Head, for flying out to party and judge the guitar contest! Our new #1 Mulisha fan “Striker,” AKA “Loose Tooth,” rocked out so hard that Adam awarded him one of the custom painted ESP Mulisha guitar!
