We made a post a few days ago about Pat “Big Daddy” Laughlin heading down to Costa Rica for the 2012 Fise contest. With it being the first major BMX contest of the 2012 year, all the big names were on hand. Pat made it through prelims and into finals to ride under the lights of the parks course. The finals went off with everyone completely shutting the park down with next level tricks. After it was all said and done, Pat came back to the states with a 15th place in finals… SOLID!

Here is a photo of Big Daddy in the local Costa Rica news paper. We are really stoked on his solid start to the new year. Big Daddy gets into California on Thursday for the SE Bikes 2012 southern California team trip, so keep checking back for updates on that. Oh yeah, and in case you were wondering, yes that is a custom yellow Heavy Hitter he is on and yes it matches his Ferrari.

SE Rider Sebastian Solano (sponsored through our Argentinean distributor LiraSport) got together with the guys from UNO newspaper over in Chile, and this solid video was the outcome. Along with great riding, he dishes out an interview as well. Hablas espanol?!

We have photos of our bikes, flick trix styles! Classic PK Ripper, Quadangle, Wildman, and Heavy Hitter looks. Peep em!

The first major BMX contest of 2012 is about to kick off. The Fise contest is going to be held in Costa Rica this year and Pat is on his way down there to do his thing. Us at SE want to wish him good luck and keep your eyes peeled because we will be dishing updates on how he is doing.
