Ride BMX just uploaded the intro and Dakota Roche’s banger of a section from their 2008 DVD “Insight” for your viewing pleasure. Needless to say, this is a phenomenal video part that you won’t want to miss. After you check that out, go check out a Q&A with Dakota about the part right here!
“Ride BMX’s 2008 DVD, Insight…
“Each person deals with their own battles when filming a video part. With Insight, I wanted to use the video to convey that idea. I wanted the audience to be able to connect with a rider by seeing something they could relate to other than just tricks.
When it was first confirmed that I’d gotten the opportunity to make this video, the first person I had in mind to have a video part was Dakota Roche. At the time when we started filming it was obvious to me that Dak was going to do big things in BMX. It just so happened that he also lived a few blocks away from where I was staying at the time (renting a room from Todd Lyons).
Dak and I shared a similar passion for videos and he was a huge motivator during the whole process. The one thing that stands out the most years later is his enthusiasm for the project. He’d show up early at my place to wake me up to go film or call me when I was out of town to tell me about a spot he had in mind. He also owned a vx2000 and was always down to help shoot and drive people around in his creepy white work van. I’m pretty sure his part ender was filmed on Thanksgiving Day.“” —Ryan Navazio
