BMX News – 3/8/19

March 8, 2019

It’s that time of the week for Brant Moore to dig through the week and talk about the best BMX videos, the biggest news and the latest products and put it all in one place so you can stay in the loop! This week is a busy one, plus he announces a little partnership we have going to help get some things going for the future!

“As much as I didn’t want to put Jesco’s name in the title or his photo in the thumbnail, he was so much of an icon in BMX that nothing else this week felt as important. When you think about it, there really hasn’t been an animal as well known throughout all of BMX and he really was package deal with Trey.
So here’s to you Jesco, and I hope that Marty Jones can help continue to bring joy in a similar way.

RideBMX is on hold because of WHAT?!

On another note, a literal BMX Union has begun! Submit your videos the BMX Union and let’s help create something awesome together!!

Trey Turner – Issa World

March 8, 2019

Trey Turner dropped a fresh video giving us a look at what he’s been getting into while out cruising spots this winter! Fortunately for Trey he’s far enough south to keep out of the snow and keep stacking clips. Hit play to check out a bunch of sweet lines filled with grinds, hang fives, tens and nothing, spins and more!

“So I wanted to produce another video for my sponsors to show them love, so a few months ago I started filming this. 95% of this is self filmed but I truly feel me going extra hard on the tricks, made up for the fact that I didn’t have a filmer and I’m stoked on every trick in this video. Filmed mostly in Cincinnati, Ohio and Kentucky with some Texas clips sprinkled in , you can’t miss this, because I can honestly say this is the best video I have ever produced and hyped to finally show it to the world! Shout outs to Eastern Bikes, Mayhem Supply, Richies Chicken, and Jones Soda for holding me down and keeping me motivated no matter what and also shout outs to Adult Average for letting us stay at his crib when I was in Texas!!. If you want to see a video filled with originality, peep Issa World!! Thank you! Song : Ching Chong by Benihana Boy”
