Travis Pastrana Twitter Account!?

July 30th, 2009 Kyle Barnoff 1 comment

Recently, we have received a lot of hits from people who have been looking for Travis Pastrana’s twitter account. There is no definite answer, because two different accounts claim to be Travis. The most legitimate account it TPSuzuki199. The account has zero updates and has followed zero people as well, but, it has over 1,200 followers to date. We are reasonably sure this is Travis, but he never updates, so why follow? Or… why not, he will not be cluttering up your twitter feed.

What if you still want to get news about Travis? Some Alternatives… You could follow TPFanPage, although contrary to the name, the author does not supply enough TP to wipe up all the crap that he posts. Most of his posts are not even about Travis. The best solution, you can follow people who are close to him. Some suggestions:

Erik Roner: http://twitter.com/Erikroner

Jolene Van Vugt: http://twitter.com/JoleneNitroGirl

Andy Bell: http://twitter.com/andybell_

Those were the easiest accounts to find. A little more searching could turn up some more!

Nitro Circus at Woodward Camp

MTV’s Nitro Circus visited Woodward Camp this week to shoot for their upcoming season.  They shot for three days beginning on Monday, June 13th.  The entire crew was present including, Jolene Van Vugt, Jim DeChamp, Special Greg, Erik Roner, Streetbike Tommy Passemante, Hubert Rowland (everyon’e favorite redneck), Jermey Rawle and Andy Bell.  Travis Pastrana arrived on the set Tuesday, immediately after participating in a rally car race.  Jolene was sporting a (pink) cast from a reported motorcycle accident.

For those unaware, Woodward Camp is a summer camp with programs in: cheerleading, gymnastics, BMX, skate and inline.  It is a meca for skating.  The skate side of camp contains countless acres of indoor skate parks, vert ramps, concrete parks and even a mega ramp.  Some of the world’s best BMX, Skate and Inline pros train at Woodward Camp year round.

The summer camp was in session, but at times it felt like camp was brought to a halt when the Nitro Crew was filming.  Three days is a short time to

film, but for the Nitro Crew it was enough time to get creative in every facility on camp grounds. The crew did some ridiculous things in the gym, got very creative on all of the ramps and even used the entire camp in one segment!  I do not want to spoil the show, but around camp they used BMX bikes, motorcycles, skateboards and almost everything else with wheels attached to it.

On Thursday the Nitro Crew was on their way to film at Bam Margera’s house.  The episode featuring Woodward is rumored to include footage from Bam’s house as well.  It will definitely be an adrenaline charged show.  Be sure not to miss the upcoming season!

A new season of Nitro Circus starts in August.  Sundays at 10:00 PM on MTV!
