It’s crazy to think Airwalk is still in BMX, but people don’t even know it, haha. Here’s a video from their team in Argentina getting down in Mendoza. Check out riding from Gabriel Herbotte, Diego Parisi and Juanjo Garcia all throwing down some real solid riding at the skatepark there. Definitely worth a peek!
X-Games Coming to Austin, Texas
A few months back, X-Games announced that 2013 would be the last year they would be holding the event in Los Angeles and that they would be opening up bids for cities to have them come. They had Chicago, Detroit, Charlotte, North Carolina and Austin, Texas all put in bids that landed on the list for potential places to go. They opened up voting and it looks like Austin has been chosen as the location for 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017’s host city. You can find out more by Clicking Here. It looks like now even more riders have an excuse to go down to this BMX Mecca.

Head over to The Merged for the inside scoop on the Monogram tripod seat and seat post that Odyssey will have out soon! Looks like this tripod setup is going to become a standard in BMX sooner than later!
Crispy Stream – DJ Basspound Mix
Gotta love these Crispy Stream videos. Even though I don’t know who the hell DJ Basspound is, I do know that Brock Olive, Jerry Vandervalk, Dave Wood, Nick Kajewski, Matt McCallum and Yonni Wakefield all come through with some real solid riding and plenty of good times for this new video! Hit that play button!
Adam Kun Interview
Head over to Flat Matters to check out an interview with Adam Kun about winning the BMX Worlds this past weekend! Good read and some rad photos!
Canberra Trip 2013
It’s crazy how many spots are in Canberra down in Australia. Adam Stone and his crew loaded up for a 5 day trip to check out all of the parks and street spots recently and ended up with this video. Check out how good their trip went in this video I spotted on Focalpoint.
“Sean Falkenstein, Adam Stone, Corey Gardener, Jake Johnston, Dylan Moore and Jaxon Andrawartha went on a 5 day trip to Canberra and this was the outcome.
Guest appearances by Chris and Billy.
Filmed and edited by Adam Stone, additional filming by Corey, Jaxon and Sean“
Joe Battaglia Edit
I’m really digging this new one featuring Joe Battaglia for a clothing company called On The Come Up. The riding is great and the filming and editing is solid… but honestly, could they have tried to be a little more original with the name? Either way, hit the play button for some wild BMX riding.
Product: G-Sport – Pleg 2 – Out Now
We caught wind that the Pleg 2 from G-Sport was out about a week ago, but we didn’t have the full specs, so I figured we better post that up. The Pleg 2 starts with a 7075-T6 aluminum core that has been slimmed down for a smaller overall diameter and ultimately a stiffer peg. The sleeve is made from a proprietary plastic blend that’s 4″ in length and has a diameter of 39mm, which is what most steel pegs have. You can pick these up in 14mm or 3/8″ with a wight of 3.6 oz.
Above is a photo of the original Pleg next to the Pleg 2 and a regular steel peg. As you can see, the Pleg 2 has come down in size and looks more like a regular peg in size. This is good for all the riders who didn’t like the original Pleg due to how bulky it looked.
