The latest BMX Videos, Products and News!
We just posted up Subrosa’s latest print ad and people were stoked on that Cheetah kit, so we figured we better give you guys a closer look. Below you can find full specs and details on Raphael Jeroma Williams’ signature colorway kit that is OUT NOW!
Over the weekend, we threw the 4th annual BV Jam at Bluff Valley Campground’s Over the Top Skatepark in Zumbro Falls! Over the years, we’ve seen the event grow a ton and had a ton of riders from all over the Midwest show up for the event and this one definitely had people coming from all over once again! We decided to give a two day event a go compared to trying to cram everything into one day like we had in the past and it gave the jam a much more laid back feel versus “how can we get these runs through faster so we don’t have everyone stuck here until midnight!”. It was definitely more about having fun and hooking everyone up for coming out this year and that was what we were aiming for! Below we have a ton of photos I shot when I wasn’t running around helping to keep things moving along. There’s also results from each class and some of the mini jams we did. Huge shout out to everyone who came out this past weekend, Blake, Adam and Nate at Bluff Valley for all the hard work to get this event happening, Karl Hinkley and Tim Oliver for announcing and all of the sponsors! We couldn’t have done this without you. Until next year!
I’m about to head down to the 2014 BV Jam, but there was no way I could start a Saturday off without a fresh round of Products:! For the 97th round, we’ll take a closer look at The Shadow Conspiracy‘s Corvous rim, Profile Racing‘s Spline Drive sprocket, Sunday‘s EX Aaron Ross complete bike, Scott Ditchburn’s new signature Thunderbeast frame from Subrosa and then we’ll wrap it up with a look at the 4140 shirt from The Daily Grind. Ready? Let’s do this!
Threads? For a long time now, I’ve been wanting to start a feature with Bikeguide where I highlight a few of the latest threads that have opened up a bit of discussion. If you have been around BMX for a while, there’s a good chance you’ve spent a little time cruising through the board to see all the different threads on there. Between all the BMX, cars, motorcycles, girls, news related and funny threads that are constantly popping up, it’s easy to get sucked into checking out everything that’s going on over there. It’s a good place to find out about something you didn’t know about or even get a question answered you might not have been able to find elsewhere. For this first round, I’ve decided to pick two recent threads that I found pretty interesting for you guys to check out and possibly get in on if you have an account or would be up for creating your own account (Don’t worry… It’s FREE).
First up, we have the “What Happened To…” thread that Josss fired up asking where Dylan Smith and Scott Maylon have been since they decided to step out of the BMX light. Since then, it has lead to a bunch of different names like Eli Platt, Dave Young, Josh Heino, Shawn Arata and more! It’s a pretty interesting read with what kind of info people have on the guys and some of the rumors that have popped up.
The second new thread worth checking out this time around is TenPack Distro Belly Up. Yesterday, Tenpack Distribution up in Canada announced to their dealers that they will be shutting down in July and liquidating their entire inventory from the 28 brands they supply the country’s shops with. This one is a pretty interesting one since it was an unexpected announcement and I’d imagine will shake things up for the BMX industry in Canada.
These are just two of thousands of threads you could spend hours digging through. Hit up Bikeguide.org to take a look!
BMX has been doing some really rad collaborations over the years. There have been a handful of brands that have teamed up to work on projects and it has lead to some aesthetically pleasing limited edition products that are easy to be stoked on. Most recently, Fit Bike Co. and Etnies have teamed up with their shared team riders, Tom Dugan and Ben Lewis, to work on a special project that included complete bikes, shoes and a few different shirts. With the recent release, we figured it would be a good time to take a closer look at just what they have cooked up for this collaboration. Ready? Let’s get into it!
The days just keep on cruising by! It’s Saturday again, and that means it’s time to take a look at 5 dialed BMX goodies that will help keep your sessions going strong! This week we’ll take a closer look at the BTR hub from The Shadow Conspiracy, the Stratos stem from Stolen Bikes, the Knox guard sprocket from Sunday, the Badge pivotal seat from Madera, then we’ll wrap things up with Chase DeHart’s signature Butter frame from Cult. Let’s get into it!
Well, another Frostbike has come and gone faster than the snow storm that hit us just before last week! It’s always a treat to visit the QBP head quarters and see what the QBMX guys have cooking! We’ve got all our coverage posted up now and you can find each brands booth we were able to visit in the links below! Take a peek!
The final stop of the day at Frostbike for us was ODI Grips. During our quick visit, we were mesmerized by all the colors and different grip options they have. We even caught a glimpse at their latest collaboration… Let’s take a peek!
