It’s that time of the year for the Vans US Open, which means the Van Doren Invitational is going down right there on the beach as well. Here’s a a video where Gary Young gives us a tour of the course along with a little input from him as he rolls around (and almost gets taken out)! Expect to see plenty of wild riding go down in this bowl over the coming days!
“The 2016 Van Doren Invitational is upon us and the bowl has gone through some major changes from year’s past. We had Gary Young take a run and do his best to talk his way around the bowl…as you’ll be see, the course is fast, tight, and a little dangerous, haha. We’ll have full coverage of the VDI all week on ridebmx.com, so stay with us.” – Ride BMX

Wethepeople sat Dan Kruk down to talk a little bit about a particular day of filming in Barcelona, Spain for the “Foundation” video that Wethepeople are working on. This definitely shows the frustrations that can go into trying to get a clip that you really want. This video doesn’t really give much away as far as just what Dan was trying, but it’s safe to say he has two clips that will be popping up in the “Foundation” video from the spot!
