Kyle Ebbett announcing the Sea Otter Rain or Shine Jam
  Kyle Ebbett was the events announcer, and it was really awesome having an announcer that knows the tricks as well as the riders names. A little bit different from the dual slalom...

 Is Martin's frame different from the p3 they've been selling for a few years, or is it just the paintjob/angles that are screwing with me?

 i talked to a specialized dude and he said they are makin some sick changes for 2013 so im sure some of Soderstroms geo is going to transfer over

 Specialized are talking on releasing a soderstrom signature frame soon, it is just a prototype for now until he is comfortable with it, he also has a number of signature parts on it, this has different geos from his first specialized frame.

 Pretty sure that his his own custom geo. Not something they are going to mass produce. He runs super tall forks so he needs a steeper head angle so his rig is not all raked out. I sure hope they mass produce that color tho! Be stoked to get my hands on one of those!

 yea im sure they arent going to produce soderstroms exact bike but i bet they are lowering the top tube, raising the bb, and shortening the chainstays a bit
