The Come Up BMX
Over the weekend, the body of a 34 year old homeless woman named Valerie Godoy was found on a bench at Duncan Park or more familiarly, the 9th Street trails in Austin. She appears to have died from blunt force trauma and the police are treating the case as a homicide. I wonder what, of any, effect this will have in the trails. Check out a video from a local news station after the jump. Continue reading →
The Northern Embassy‘s latest edit features Trevor Angelucci. Trevor hails from British Columbia and put together an edit full of solid park and street clips, including a ledge drop to rail and a big triple kinker. Then there’s the ender which is an awesome accidental trick that probably scared the hell out of him!
New edit form the StayWest crew out of Palanga, Lithuania. Lot of good street clips in this.
I can’t read french but from clicking around the website randomly these guys seem like they have a good thing going for the BMX magazine, Figuré. If you live in France, or read French, be sure to get a hold of a copy of this new issue.
Drew Jackson does some really smooth freecoaster lines at a skatepark in this new edit for S&M
Hey. We’ve got the new Blazeguard DVD available now in the web store. Watch the trailer up there again and then go buy it. Support independent BMX videos.
Kilian Roth brings a smooth four-pegged freecoaster style to the Spanish street mecca known as Barcelona. It seems like we have been seeing more videos than ever out of BCN, but everybody still manages to find new spots to film on.
The newest video from Jourdan Barba was filmed during a session at Skate City in Las Vegas. Jourdan holds it down for Colony in Sin City with bunch of solid grind combos, including an icepick to overcrook!
Alienation‘s Dylan Stark and Glen Girbovan really went all out for this split edit filmed in Santa Barbara. They put SB spots to good use with a bunch great lines and quite a few bangers!
I am hard pressed to think of a better split part than this one. Ian Schwartz and Chad Shackelford had very different riding styles, and it worked together awesome. “Fast Car” by Tracy Chapman is one of the most unorthodox yet perfect song choices in BMX history.
Wormz part in Animal‘s All Day is a vastly under appreciated section in my opinion. This is a truly timeless video part with a perfect pairing of music and riding. Wormz and Tom White are my two favorite parts from All Day and arguably both of their best sections to date.
Here’s Nikita Zharkov’s section from web series Until It’s Dry out of Saint Petersburg, Russia. This edit is well produced and full of solid street and park riding. I was into the James Cox-esque suicide no hander down stairs.
Kink‘s Ben Hittle is the latest addtion to the Almond Footwear pro team. Check Ben’s new team page for a couple of photos and what they have to say about their newest rider. Also Ben’s Kink NYC edit from last month is worth another look if you missed it!
The Hit & Run event in Lublin, Poland looks like it was a huge success. The video starts out a little slow, but as the day goes on the session gets better and better! It’s awesome to see so many dudes firing out such good tricks spot after spot.
