Sunday night always seems to roll around really fast these days. The weeks are just flying by these days, which I guess is a good thing since it’s one week closer to spring. However, that hasn’t slowed down production of BMX web videos. This past week we had a real good batch of videos pop up in the Daily Section worth seeing. I’ve gone through and picked out some of the best ones to be featured in this weeks Video Recap to save you some time. check out riding from guys like Marv, Max Gaertig, Mat Hoffman, Devon Smillie, Tom Dugan, Devon Smillie, Jared Ball, Dylan McCauley, Craig Passero, Geoff Slattery, and more! Let’s get into it.
Above we have the vide I’ve decided to go with edit of the week. It’s the first team trip from the Merritt guys who chose to hit up Austin, Texas for some good times. Although this edit lacks Brad Simms and Brian Foster, it came out absolutely dialed and I am stoked on it.
Craig Passero has been secretly stacking clips for this new Whammo video that features 47 minutes of pure goodness from a bunch of different riders. Check it!
Let’s turn the serious down and give a shout out to Jack Birtles for coming through with another awesome video that he produced.
“Cast – Garreth Hadfield playing Mario, Steve Lyons as Luigi and Jack Birtles as Toadie.
Original idea, Art Direction and Costume/Props Design by Garreth Hadfield
Directed, Produced, Edited, Shot, Coloured, and Animated by Jack Birtles
A Huge thanks goes out to Manu Hepi for the all the Goomba and Coin probs and Stephen Morrisey at RIdeOnBMX for providing the unreal indoor Skatepark.
Soundtrack; Maniac – Michael Sembello

I think this is the 4th week in a row that Mat Hoffman has made the list in a row with a new edit. I’m not sure why Mat has been so motivated to produce lately, but I hope this continues. Check out some more dialed footage from him blasting his backyard ramp already.
Can’t go wrong with some footage from Fit‘s s Tom Dugan, Dan Conway, Jarred Swafford and Troy Blair blasting some Arizona cement.
“A wrap up of the Arizona trip our boys went on last week, Must watch!!!
Riders: Tom Dugan, Dan Conway, Jarred Swafford, and Troy Blair
Filmed & Edited By: Stew Johnson”
It’s safe to say that pretty much anything featuring Geoff Slattery like this new Etnies edit will make this list.
“Geoff spends so much time in the air, whether on a plane or on his bike. He’s been busy traveling and stacking footy from all over, but not too busy for an etnies edit… guess he just Rolls With It. Here’s Slattery slaying it. Props to anyone who can name all these spots!”
Dylan McCauley is one of those Milwaukee guys who are really making some waves lately. This is his part he submitted for last years round of The Hunt that opened a few eyes.
“Dylan McCauley gets buck in his Hunt BMX video part. Dylan was part of the Bonus Bangers section that could have been a separate DVD of it’s own.
Just watch. Midwest coming out hard.”
Fact: Jeff Cadger and filmer Tommy Blanco make for a hell of a good team. This edit is so damn good.
If this doesn’t indicate that the Kink team are going all in for the new “Squash It” DVD, I don’t know what to tell you. This is brutal.
“The crew getting killed for our upcoming DVD release, “Squash It”.
Music- Amen Ra “Razoreater”
Filmed and edited by Darryl Tocco.”
Absolutely amazing seeing how much progress Maddog has been making lately. Stay strong, Brett!
“Crooked World goes behind the scenes as Brett “Maddog” Banasiewicz kick, punch, pedals and squats his way back to BMX. Brett’s Dad Bill gives you the rundown on his daily rehab including a look at Brett’s hyperbaric chamber and speech therapy session. Stay Strong #Maddog. Filmed in Dallas, Texas by Tristan Afre. Edited by Justin Kosman.” – Network A
Devon Smillie kicking off 2013 proper for Osiris!
With Shape Bicycles now being available in the U.S through Can You Dig It, they figured it would be appropriate to drop a new edit featuring U.S team rider, Jared Ball, getting loose on some dirt. This is rad.
This is the definition of a “good day”.
“Early January 2013, the Flemington Banks jam went down in Melbourne, Australia. It was a blast to see everyone kill it! Thanks to the supporters: Colony BMX, Primary Threads, Fit Bike Co, Cult, Division Brand and Strictly BMX.
Filmed by Sam Illman and Cooper Brownlee
