Upcoming Surprise!

Hey everyone, Remy here, and I’ve got a simple question: what’s wrong with the number 186,152? Any guesses? If you guessed that it’s less than 200,000 you are correct! But that’s too obvious, why bring up such a specific number? The folks over at Xpogo host an annual extreme Pogo event, Pogopalooza, in cities all…

Pogo Gets a Green Light

Ok, so maybe that’s a biker on the traffic light pictured to the right. But we’re all about pogo here so let’s just say it’s a traffic light giving the “OK” to pogo across the street. Pogo training has been going well recently here at BTAC and events are starting to take shape in the…

Here is a cause worth watching. Project For Awesome ramps up toward the end of the year to help promote charities on December 17th and 18th on YouTube.  It’s pretty impressive and here’s their video reflecting back on the 2010 campaign: What’s really neat about Project For Awesome is they lift up other charities.  They…

Happy Holidays And Merry Christmas From BTAC

Here’s a classic Charlie Brown holiday video that resonates with the religious-types (Christians and the like). It’s a nice message of goodwill toward all and the reminder of the root meaning of and reason for celebrating Christmas. For many of us it’s all about the frenzy to and from the malls trying to check off…

Extreme Pogo: Let’s Make It A Mainstream Sport

How can you NOT want to watch extreme pogo videos? Aside from the epic bails, falls, fails, and injuries it’s just remarkable what people are doing to push this sport into the mainstream spotlight.
