Vans Warped Tour Twenty Ten: Orlando, FL

August 11th, 2010 | By Anthony

Photographer Walt Perkins, a good friend of Elevated made it out to the Central Florida Fairgrounds.

The shot below speaks for itself.

The Vans Warped Tour, created by Kevin Lyman in 1994 forever expanded the elements for music festivals. The 90’s witnessed a major shift in music and sporting events, Lymans idea would be sponsored by Vans and 16 years later here we are, capturing the moments. The tour brings an array of musicians including a multitude of new artist and past time favorites. Vans Warped Tour has solidified itself as a staple for summer music festivals. The fan base alone is immense but diverse, and rightfully so.

And finally, presenting Brad DeLoatche. Not sure what the fellow in the background  is going for.

Elevated rider Miles Mathia linked up with Torey and the boys of WRAHW during his recent trip to NYC. Mile’s shredded the city for three days and Torey put together a really solid edit of him.

At only 16 Mile’s is one of the smoothest and most stylish riders in the fixed freestyle scene, and with his positive and humble attitude there’s no telling how far he will make it. We’re proud to have him as a part of our crew!

Miles Mathia

May 30th, 2010 | By Nicholas

Miles Mathia and I have been talking about filming an edit for a while now. We finally got around to filming a few weeks back and within getting a few clips, Miles ended up breaking the fork on his Villin fixed freestyle prototype frame.

Broke Fork

Instead of just building a new fork, Miles and Villin’s Alex Dold designed a new geometry based off of Miles riding experience on the first prototype.

They’ve shortened the chainstays, extended the top tube for full barspin clearance, slammed the seat tube, and raised the bottom bracket. They’re also running 26″ wheels, as opposed to 700c wheels, which in my opinion is a good move for smaller riders doing trick track.

Finally, after being bike less for three weeks, Miles is back to shredding!
