Kareem Williams in Jail

2010-04-29T16:46:00.000-07:00

So last night Kareem was out for a cruise and decided to park the car of a girl he was with in a handy cap spot in a sketchy area. Soon after the cops rolled up to the car to see what was up they asked some questions then preceded to take only Kareem to the station. After running Kareem's info the police noticed that he had four warrants out for his arrest, so at that point they put Kareem in jail with a $2500 dollar bail. As of now I don't know if his bail has been paid, but from what I know he's still in the junk tank.

Jaryn Pierson interview

2010-03-25T19:23:00.000-07:00

Massive Ledge ride in Burlington, VT. Photo: Dom Newell

Whats you name?
Awkward question?

What are you doing to survive the cold hard winter in Burlington VT.
Stay in, was dishes at the infamous Denny’s, and make music via the
Keyboard, guitar or ableton.

How long have you been riding for?
Hmmm not really sure, 3 warm seasons maybe.

Most of us know of your dog Abby (R.I.P) being quite the savage haha. Tell us one of the most wild story
you can remember about her.
That dog could eat…and drink. A dozen buffalo wings (bones and all) and a few beers were nothing to her stomach.

What is one of your favorite things being a part of The Garden family?
Good crew, no beef. Plus Lou keeps it hood.

What one topping can you put on anything to make it taste better and where more is better?
Ketchup

Who are your favorite people to ride with?
Whoever is chillin at the common any givin day usually makes for a good krew.

Half cab into the court house drop in NYC. Photo: Zakk Taylor

Living in the Pittsfield durning the summer and living in Burlington during the school year
how do you feel the two riding scenes differ from each other?
Pittsfield scene is thriving, so many kids getting so good. I credit this to the common being such a simple park, so instead of kids trying to find lines, everyone will just sit and try a new “stunt” all damn day. Burlington scene is wack, theres one chill kid Alex the rat that I ride with, he’s about 7 haha.

So i hear you theres a story about you braking into Dick's Sporting Goods please elaborate.
Got drunk, opened up the tractor trailer truck, stole guns, bad idea.

Top choice of beer?
Everyone drinks the Vermont craft bullshit up here, I’m still hyped on a PBR keg.

What other hobbies do you have besides riding bikes and partying on the reg?
Hmm losing phones, building up fixies, dubstep shows, monopoly Mondays.

What’s up with your obsession with Lada Gaga?
Pop culture icon, shock artist, possibly a dude even tho I don’t believe the hype, its all good.

You’re a regular viewer of the come up, what do you think the come up is doing for bmx?
Keepin’ it classy.

Gainer at the Cliff spot in Burlington, VT. Photo: Random

Whats one thing your home town Pittsfield, MA needs?
It’s getting cliché to say a skatepark, how about a public pool?

What plans/projects do you have lined up for this summer 2010?
Get an apartment in the hood with TheJakeSeeley for the summer,
film a part for The Garden vid, finish school then move to Texas, who knows.

Any last words or thanks?
What up to everyone down in the 413, somebody needs to go rescue
Matt Prosser and get him outta the Pitt!!

Platt cant catch a brake

2010-03-24T22:50:00.000-07:00

Just the other day Alex Platt fractured his skull again doing a massive gap filming for his newest section in the OSS DVD. He's gonna be ok but will be off the bike for a bit. He had to deal with so much bullshit before even getting any medical attention including almost being arrested buy the biggest douche bag cop and kicked out of the first hospital he went to. He will be driving home on sunday to get checked out again by his primary doctors, seeing what they have to say about his condition. But as we all know Platt he's already going along with his normal daily routines acting as nothing even happend. GET WELL SOON BUDDY!

Chris Johnson Interview

2010-03-22T17:33:00.000-07:00

Whats your name? Ryan aka Chris Johnsson

What are your sponsors? Volume flow, Garden, Am:Pm inner city lunch program

Where are you from? White Plains, NY

What are you doing right now? watching Watson's Shola part, about to go ride.

Whats your favorite part of being a part of The Garden family? The people who are in on it are dope which is most important. Siked on that.

You seem to always be rocking Basketball jerseys when you ride, out of all your jerseys whats your favorite one to wear? Umm, i got a few, mainly just rock the NY Knicks sprewell one. That orange and blue just says NY. If anyone has any they dont want send them through. ha

From your recent AM:PM video parts many people notice that you are always riding the most unique spots. What would you say are things you look for in a spot? It depends on every spot but i think the most important thing is using the spot to its fullest potential. Whats the point in finding a dope set up and then doing a tuck no hander on it which you can do at at any skate park etc.. If you really find a spot it should help you in figuring out what to do to maximize its potential.

How did the name Chris Johnsson come about? Senior year of high school it came about. My boy Ben and I had spanish class and he was like "yo, you look like a chris to me" and my dads name is John, and im his son, so it became Chris Johnsson. Pretty short story but thats it.

Whats the hot spot in the city for dumplings? R.I.P to the o.g. dumpling spot which closed its doors last year. Now we usually head to Vanessa's dumplings on Eldridge. Get that hot tea, sesame pancake and dumplings, you good money. Joey knows some more exclusive spots, cant put it all out there though.

Who are your favorite people to ride with? Chill people. Dont matter how you ride, gotta be chill or it aint gonna be fun.

What are you up to when your not riding? When not riding im either at school or working at a motorcycle dealership up in the BX. Besides that ill be out on the motorcycle or shooting photos or something..

Do you have any upcoming video project your working on for 2010? We are currently filming for Am:Pm Tres which im excited for. Many spots are lined up. Also i wanna get some more clips for the Garden DVD. The trip we went on was awesome and with the team on hand, it could be an awesome dvd.
