Wasn't he a part-owner of Metal as of a year or two ago?

Metal without Sean Burns is like DK without Doyle, which is like Disneyland without Mickey Mouse.

hate to say it, but the ship started sinking as soon as they left S&M. no frames after dead bang = slow death.

I heard he left because he didn't want to ride frames made by humans, and Levan didn't agree with moving production to Zoltron, where frames can be manufactured by cyborgs. Just what I heard.

We were suppose to be doing there Aus distro, and shit just never happened. It was all under the WTP guys, so should have been amazing. They do eclat, wtp, salt, that new shoe company, have their own store and their own disto. Those mother fuckers are organised.

It got pushed back a million times, then next I heard another distro was going to do it, but I'm not sure if frames ever landed.

I hope he doesn't do what everyone else in his situation does, which is starting yet another company offering innovations like frames in 20", 20.5, 21, AND 21.25" TT, pivotal seats, and lightweight stems...... We're all full up here.

frame companies in 2010 = t shirt and peg companies in 1995

Somehow I doubt Sean Burns wants anything to do with making "lightweight stems".

He'll probably ride for WTP, get a signature frame and continue doing what he does. Maybe run Bonedeth and other projects under WTP...

On the other hand, if he started making 7-8 lb frames specifically made to fit 45T sprockets and made for jumping off of 3 story buildings to flat, that would be the best thing in BMX in a while. This generation needs it's War Pig.

I would say the sunday wave is my generations War Pig.

I may be biased though, due to the fact that I have a sunday first wave

I was so stoked on it that I didn’t want to jump in and fuck it up. apparently this is when I was doing nothing sitting on my ass. Think for a second about when you get an injury that just takes you out for maybe 1 or 2 months, It sucks. You sit around and watch videos or whatever and get stoked to ride. After awhile, they start to bum you out because you can’t ride. Now put yourself in my shoes. A head injury that takes you out for 7 1/2 months, then back to riding for 3 months. After 3 months you get plowed over by a car and loose your left Femur bone and blow your knee out. This takes you out for another year and 3 months. I gets hard to pay attention to our sport because it just pisses you off. I had my favorite rider in the world next to Mat Hoffman running the show, so why get in front of him. Let him steer the boat right?…. However, I didn’t realize the new captain was bummed because he was not only steering the boat, he was busy filming these amazing sections breaking himself off as well. We are still friends and I will hang with him in a week, but our only communication since the split has been over friendly texting. He says he doesn’t really feel like talking about it to me yet. Bummer, but he’s a friend before a work partner so what eves. Thanks a million for the decade Sean, you’re like a brother.

How often do you guys catch yourself looking at random shit saying "sean burns would do (insert crazy shit) fucking proper"?

I dont know if that made any sense. Dude is a fucking beast and needs more coverage.

he left to start a candy company in pembroke mass. his buddies dad died and left his kid the place. their doing some weird psycho/rockabilly candy/lifestyle/music/stuff shop with it and the retail shop is going to be in allston which is also known as "allston rock city".

pretty stoked the guy has other aspirations outside of bmx but i kinda see this business adventure as a new age hot topic.

bit weird but thats how he rolls i guess?

at least the shirts for the shop look cool.
