Belaey Rides Bike Across Slackline

Mountain biking is an impressive enough sport in and of itself, but apparently it wasn't impressive enough for Kenny Belaey, who is a four-time Union Cycliste Internationale world champion in mountain biking trials. The Belgian mountain biker decided that he needed to up the ante. He wanted to ride his bike across a slackline. And that's exactly what he did. In a ski area of the French Alps called the La Plagne, Belaey completed this amazing feat on a slackline stretching 59 feet across and 367 feet above a gorge. Belaey told Red Bull, "The moment my wheel touched the...

Perseid Meteor Shower Images

We discussed in a previous blog about our journeying to the great outdoors to view the Perseid Meteor shower. The evening was absolutely spectacular, and our Oklahoma weather played very nice that evening. Over the course of the three or so hours we were in the field, John Sullivan, Carlus Call and myself together witnessed approximately 100 meteors streaking across the moonless night sky. While there, John Sullivan, our staff photographer, also captured some amazing images of the Milky Way, and even managed to snag a few with meteors streaking across the frame. Check out a few of the outstanding photographs...

Man Catches Monster While Kayak Fishing

When I think of kayak fishing, I generally think of fishing along the rivers and tributaries found in Oklahoma and Arkansas. So, when our Content Curator, Joel Thomas, showed me the mega-fish the man in this video caught off the coast of Cape Coral, Florida I was floored. Check out the video for yourself. Insane. The fish, which is a Goliath Grouper, I believe, is nearly as big as the kayak from which this individual is fishing. How would you like to catch something this large in a boat this tiny?

Lion vs. Deer

The past few weeks I've seen videos of bear attacking deer, bears chasing buffalo and even bears chasing people. Apparently bears have been busy lately. But I haven't seen many videos of mountain lions. So when Squatch Watch Gear Content Curator, Joel Thomas, texted me this video, I was intrigued. The video, from 2001, portrays a mountain lion attacking and bringing down a full grown mule deer buck. Check it out below. Warning: the video contains images that may be too intense for some viewers. What do you think? Feel free to comment here or on our Facebook page.

"I Took the One Less Traveled By..."

Well, opening day is here. After roughly a year of developing, planning and lots of dreaming, our idea of Squatch Watch Gear is a tangible product now. The journey has been long but in the end worth it. We four guys have had a blast on this new adventure together, doing things we have never done before or probably never thought we would ever do. And this journey has been more than just making t-shirts. It has been one of adventure, friendship and camaraderie. And we hope to convey that to you through our designs. Our goal is to inspire...
