BMX Photo Feature: Brady Tweedy
Bike / BMX
There were a lot of factors keeping us from getting this photo. We spent the early afternoon dodging the rain, almost resigning ourselves to an indoor park infested with scoot rats. Right before we met up to shoot, one of Brady’s friends took it on a kinked rail and chipped his tooth and broke his back. After taking that dude to go get checked out, Brady came back out ready to go, only to get postponed again by more rain, a family emergency and the “Local Neighborhood Do-Gooder,” who happened to walk by and tell us that Brady’s (plastic) pegs were causing destruction of private property to this ever-so-fragile (metal) rail. Still, with all of these factors working against us, Brady dropped this down the rail first try. It was one of those rare occasions where I knew we had the shot as soon as I saw the strobes light him up. Brady is an insane rider and an awesome dude to chill with, and you can’t really beat that combination in a person
