(1:16) This morning my original plan was just to do a few speed runs and continue testing my new suspension from De Wayne Jones on the 200 ft. natural jump. When I headed towards the ramp on my 2nd speed run I just decided to go for it. It was a bit scary because after the first speed run the batteries went out in our radar gun so I had no idea how fast I was going on the 2nd speed run. I backed off quite a bit on the throttle. I hit the ramp in my usual low flying tucked position and soared 330 ft. and 6 inches. Little did I know at the time that the current 4 stroke World record was set by Ryan Capes in Australia and was 324 ft. So almost by accident I set a new 4 stroke world record today. < less

(2:49) "Punk's Not Dead" is now available on DVD only at: www.punksnotdeadthemovie.com Punk's Not Dead takes you into the sweaty underground clubs, backyard parties, recording studios, and yes, shopping malls and stadium shows where punk rock music and culture continue to thrive. Thirty years after bands like the Ramones and the Sex Pistols infamously shocked the system with their hard, fast, status-quo-killing rock, the longest-running punk band in history is drawing bigger crowds than ever, "pop-punk" bands have found success on MTV, and kids too young to drive are forming bands that carry the torch for punk's raw, immediate sound. Meanwhile, "punk" has become a marketing concept to sell everything from cars to vodka, and dyed hair and piercings mark a rite of passage for thousands of kids. Can the true, nonconformist punk spirit still exist in today's corporatized culture? Featuring interviews, performances, and behind-the-scenes journeys with the bands, labels, fans, and press who keep punk alive, Punk's Not Dead dares to juxtapose pop-punk's music and lifestyle against the roots in the 70s and 80s, resulting in unexpected revelations. A DIY search for the soul of a subculture and a celebration of all things loud, fast, and spiked, Punk's Not Dead shows punk is stronger and more relevant today than it's ever been. < less
