Woodward East – VIP: Dan Foley

March 30, 2017

Last summer Dan Foley spent a bunch of time at Woodward East working on a bunch of video projects from behind the lens. When he wasn’t busy filming, he managed to get in front of the camera to stack a few clips for himself. Here’s the latest VIP video from Woodward featuring Dan flowing around the place with a ton of style. As always, Dan doesn’t disappoint one bit with this one!

“There’s something really special about watching Dan Foley ride around camp. Every trick look so easy and smooth and he boosts airs that you swear he didn’t have the speed for. Either way, do yourself a favor and watch this one.

Here’s some news that shouldn’t be a complete surprise to you! Merritt have given Billy Perry the very well deserved bump on up to their Pro Team! It was announced a few months back that Billy had joined the Volume Bikes Pro Team, so we had a feeling that it wouldn’t take long for Merritt to make it happen as well. Above is the Instagram Billy posted to drop the news. You better believe that means we’ll be seeing more of Billy well into the future and probably a few more signature products.

Actually, did you get a look at Billy’s signature Voyager frame from Volume yet?

Sneak Peek: GT Bicycles – Junk Food Pool Tires

March 29, 2017

Here’s something we’ve been waiting to tell people about for about two years now. GT Bicycles have been working on a new way to print designs on the sidewalls of tires for a while now, and they have decided to do their popular Junk Food pattern on the side of their Pool Tires. We spotted these on the Downtown BMX Instagram a little bit ago and were pumped to finally see the finished product. We’re working on getting full details and some better photos, so we’ll be doing an updated post soon. It would appear that they are available now, though!

UPDATE: We got our hands on a high res photo of the tire for you to check out! We would assume these will be available in 2.10″ and 2.30″ sizes since that is what the Pool tire is currently available in.

What do you think? Let us know in the comments below!

Jamie Cooper-Ellis Bowl Session

March 29, 2017

Jamie Cooper-Ellis coming through with a rad new video from a a session he caught on a bowl in Vermont. We don’t see too much footage out of Vermont, but it looks like they have been hiding this gem of a spot. Hit play to watch Jamie go to work on this bowl with plenty of style and a solid bag of tricks. This will most likely leave you wanting to ride this ramp, we sure want to.

“19 year old Jamie Cooper-Ellis spent the day Riding the bowl in Ludlow Vermont this past fall, with Calvin Lyons shooting on his Sony HVR Z1N. This footage cut together by Jamie is the outcome!
