Xcorps #13.) WHEELMAN-seg.3- Bending the bounds of sanity this episode of the Xcorps rolls the viewer at double blink speed with the usual action and music and a look at new products like the rim drive foot motorcycle from Australia called the Wheelman and a new skate board concept called Tierney Rides all tested hard by Xcorps host Eric Xguru Ducharme and Bob Woodard.
Jason Lazo opens the show from Southern California’s extreme sports zone-Hollywood Sports Park in Bellflower. Using props from the film industry this sports park rolls large with vast paintball and skate zones along with BMX tracks, arcades and other sports fun. Eric enters the paint pens armed with a XC digi cam to record his own demise at the hands of local youth. Tunes and film from Rive Video Promotions with the band Benumb shoving back hard. Eric checks out the BMX track with local rider Danny Downey who tears the track and inverts his Haro at will. Music by Outkast in the piece sweetens the moves.

Then Jason opens the title segment with the new motorized foot motorcycle called the Wheelman. Introduced on a previous Xcorps episode the Wheelman is currently being distributed in the U.S. and our Xguru along with Gravity Games street luge champ Rat Sult are the first to ride the new hubless unit off and on road in this crazy segment. Music here by Alien Ant Farm.
After that its back to Bob Woodard product testing a new way to skate on a 2 wheeled swivel truck board called Tierney Rides. See Bob roll this board with some snowboard moves on the San Diego Point Loma hills. Cool shots and moves from local rider Marcus on the multipurpose Carve Board along with some insane Tierney video from our friends at 4-Reel Productions in Lake Tahoe. Pennywise, Paul Oakenfold and Ice Cube add their say to the piece.
Then Eric returns back at the sports park and talks to inline skater Scooby who tells how long it took to learn his back flip 180. The Rolling Stones and Dr. Dre -Miss You remix ads flavor to more paintball carnage with Eric showing nasty welts.
Jason closes the shows insanity with pro stuntman and BMX rider Troy Bellinghausen performing a wall slam move. Tune in next week as we roll into season two! Peace Out. Trt-29:30 3/04 See The Action Hear The Music Join The Xcorps! Close Caps

This area is considered the best B.A.S.E. jump zone on earth. New and unique styles of jumps are shown here including the near fatal ‘throw-off’ and the hilariously funny costumed ‘Udder Jump’. Dramatic multi camera POV angles put you there for the big drops pumped by music from the Maverick Records band ‘One Side Zero’. Girls can jump super big too! See Annie do her back flip off the cliff edge and watch her landing at the bottom. Sweet!
After that Roz and J intro X Corps ‘Gadget Man’ Eric “The X Guru” Ducharme who demo rides the fresh and unseen BMW (yes the German car company), “Streetcarver” skateboard down the hills of Encinitas CA. Sweet and smooth can describe this new ride made from actual parts from the car line. See Eric power slide into the camera with tunes and live shots from San Diego bands “Honeybucket” and “Pivit”.

Xcorps Action Sports Show #44.)"PADDLEBOARD"-seg.3

Xcorps #44.) PADDLEBOARD -seg.3- This special BIG X WAVE episode smashes the screen with host Jason Lazo in Hawaii hanging with tow in surf hombres Garrett McNamara and Kealii Mamala ripping big waves off Hawaii and Tahiti and a look at the sport of open ocean paddle boarding in California featuring the 32 mile Catalina classic.

Jason opens the show from scenic Cardiff Reef California where a group of local watermen are on the beach talking about their recent ocean race paddling from the island of Catalina to the So California coastal town of Manhattan Beach – a distance of 32 miles! Jason talks to top seated arm paddlers Tim Fischer, Brian Szymanski and George Plsek about the endurance ocean journey which began back in 1928 with Tom Blake taking just under 6 hours to make the arm paddle trip.
Check out the cool scenes with heli shots over the exotic Mediterranean looking village of Avalon on Catalina Island where the paddle race began. Great POV Xcam shots here putting the viewer on board with the athletes. Eddy Grants song The Struggle fits the action in this tough arm-burning historic race. Check the pod of Pilot Whales rolling the coarse!

After the break Jason and the X crew head to the North Shore of Hawaii to meet with big wave tow-in surfers Garrett McNamara and Kealii Mamala for a look at a niche end of surfing bringing on the biggest adrenalized rush! The boys from team Hawthorne are rolling their jetski and go big phat and fast for the Xcorps cameras! See them tow in to ride monster walls off the North shore at a break called Log Cabins, off Maui with the freight trains at Jaws and in Tahiti jamming the infamous teal tubes of Teahoopu.

The next segment tows in with more massive surf shots and roaring waves cut with Japanese indie band legend BORIS winding up their strings with their new video Statement riding alongside the action. Only on Xcorps! Jason talks with board masters Garrett and Kealii about the sport and recent overhead conquests. Garrett raps about how it feels to be just in front of rolling tons of water and what viewers could do to get that feeling! Kealii talks about his recent trip to California to test ride Mavericks. See the details on the guys who ride and the state of the boards now used to roll these mega waves. Insane shots as usual including the wild tow rope cam and sweet sea turtle footage under the waves! SubNoiZe band Dirtball feeds the need here with their song I’m Not. Not a band to back down and we appreciate it here on Xcorps where we let the music roll with the action!

Jason opens the last segment from the Cardiff Reef beach with paddlboarder and local PIPES surf cafe chain owner Tim Fischer talking about how he felt at the start and end of a 32 mile open ocean paddle. Always the comedy on Xcorps!
The show wraps back at North Show Hawaii with the big wave legends and a promise of more action and music next week on Xcorps.
Additional music from David Huber and Mower. Thanks to Hawaiimana Nutrition and Hawaii Action Sports for some of the big wave shots in this show. Aloha and mahalo!

X Corps Action Sports TV #27.) CABO seg.3.

Xcorps #27.) CABO –seg.3- Action sports in exotic locations is TheXcorps and this show delivers both in high doses with sports fishing off Cabo San Lucas Mexico, Baja offroad racing in the desert and spectacular fire dancing at the Melia Cabo beach resort.
The show opens with music from Maverick Records mega artist Alanis Morissette and XC front man host Bob Woodard in his element-on board captain Randy Hinton’s Cabo sportsfisher-the Incognito- heading out into one of the best fishing areas on the planet- the Pacific ocean at the end of the scenic Baja peninsula 1000 miles south of San Diego Ca. Check out the action with Bob and the crew hooking up to striped Marlin in grand Hemingway style! Included are underwater shots of the huge fighting fish along and many scenes of local wildlife such as jumping Grey whales and giant flocks of pelicans. Xcorps promotes tag and release in sports fishing demonstrated by Bob wrestling one of the underwater monsters one handed-getting the hook back and sending it on its way in the mile deep waters below. Music from the So Cal band The Dorados and their song “Hooked On Hookin Up” fits the action like a glove. This band knows their fish songs!
The next segment rolls ashore and into the desert with Bob hooking up with Gala Ancona and Fernando Cancino from Baja Wide Open Adventures for some offroad race action. See the dust fly as Bob straps in and hits the test track with cool music and scenes from Les Claypool’s Frog Brigade “Buzzards of Greenhill”. Also here is an insane clip of XC host Rat Sult dragging his new V8 sand rod at Glamis dunes Ca. Another good fit thanks to the local Cabo buzzards and our friends at RIVE.
After the break the action returns to the deck of the “Incognito” for more world class hookups with Bob and the boys landing and releasing 2 more Marlin for the X CAMS! After the sun sets its over to the resort for a special look at the nightlife in Cabo with Malabara-an exotic fire dance team-performing. Slow camera shutter speeds capture the flowing fire action as the dancers spin fire to music from island irie legend Eddy Grant doing his song “Everything Irie”. Cool hot stuff on Nikki Beach!
The show wraps with Bob sampling a tasty seafood feast prepared by Melia cooks accompanied by a festive mariachi band jamming the classic song “La Bamba”! Viva Mexico! Additional music from Unloco. J.S.Edmondson –2/06 TrT-29:30 Closed Captioned

X Corps Action Sports TV #26.) Wake-2 seg.3.

Xcorps #26.) WAKE-2 –seg.3- The Xcorps is based in San Diego for good reason-So Cal is the birthplace of many genre action sports including the wild gymnastically inclined kicker sport of wakeboarding- the focus of this show episode featuring some of the best wakers on the planet ripping for the Xcams!
The show opens with special guest host Crystal Fambrini leading the way to super scenic Lake San Vicente near San Diego where she meets Dave Williams from http://www.wakeworld.com/ launching 2 brand new Malibu Wakesetter towboats. Nice. Watching the glassy water pro riders Jimmy Wolf, Sean Obrien and Mike Schwenne are smiling. They know a good day was at hand since the Xcorps had the entire lake secured just for them and their best moves! Very nice-total wake control on a warm November day in So Cal. Fresh tunes and a new vid from Maverick Records band Story of the Year mix up the Big Air action.
Check out shot after shot of insanely big smooth moves by all three-world class wakeboarders just having fun for the Xcorps HD cams. Music and some film noire from Select Records band Monday Morning c/o Rive video pump up the segment.
Crystal talks to Sean Obrien about the day and what it takes to pull those moves and then intros a wild video from the new punk girl down from Canada-HRM Records Bif Naked doing her tune Letdown. Check the high production value in this music film produced by the Canada Music Fund. Go Bif Go!
After that Crystal-looking golden behind the wheel of the Mailu- opens it up for rider Jimmy Wolf who hucks and spins trails through the sky above the lake. Insane action shots c/o XC shooter John Porter being tube towed behind the boat.
Then in a new product segment Crystal introduces the audience to a new way to ride the water – on Banshee Riverboards. The footage says it all but the concept involves the sport of skim boarding but on rivers instead of the ocean using bungee cords which harness the rivers current launching the riders upstream over 30 MPH! Right on Idaho! See http://www.bansheeriverboards.com/ Cool. Music by the Paul Oakenfold and his song Motion.
After the break its back to the wakeboard action at Lake San Vicente where rider Mike Schwenne gets his moves slow-mowed to show the skill factor. Was that a toeside railey with an indy grab?
The show closes with Crystal and rider Sean Obrien pulling more sweet moves in the Cali sunshine. Additional music by DRT band Aphasia and their song Flatline. J.S.Edmondson TRT-29:30 Close Captioned 12/2005 ©2007 TheXcorps
