Yoyo’s Pool Party
“If someone gets hurt, I am NOT responsible… and I’m not taking them to the hospital, either!”
It’s not every day that you get the chance to ride a pool that was built specifically for riding. 15 years ago Dave Arnold built a pool in his backyard and it has made appearances over the years as a few well known names have stopped by for a session. It had been a while since Dave threw a party in the backyard, so he got it cleaned up, built a few sub boxes, sent out an invite to Donald Trump and got everyone out for a day of riding and good times. Here’s a look at what went down!
“Dave Arnold has been a part of the UK punk/hardcore, BMX and skate scenes since the early eighties… and has been a long time friend of DIG. The ex Jailcell Recipes bass player went on to build a bunch of UK parks and event courses over the years and around 2002 he decided to build a little slice of California in his own backyard, near Wigan in the UK.
Over the years it fell into a state of disrepair, and disillusioned by the division and lack of real life connections he sees in the current UK BMX scene, he recently decided to clean the Pool and get a bunch of old and new friends together for YoYo’s Pool Party, 2018. Longtime friend Alan Woods from, Alans BMX got involved and pulled in support from 4Down, Seventies and more.
On the day the likes of Mike Curley, Jonny Devine, Tom Russell and Fathead mixed it with various UK legends such as Owain Clegg, Ian Morris and Chris Mahoney. Good times and tunes were provided by Double Dutch and entertainment from ol’ Donnie Dummy The Dictator kept the good times going long into the evening.
YoYo’s Pool Party was supported by Shadow and these Official DIG Partners: S&M, BSD, WETHEPEOPLE
Dave would also like to thank Northern Beer Temple and The Coven.” – DIG

Dennis Enarson “CAPSLOCK” Premiere Jam Flyer
Dennis Enarson’s new “CAPSLOCK” video drops at the end of the month and there’s going to be a premiere party in San Diego!
If there’s one thing we know, it’s that Dennis Enarson always produces when he puts in time on a video part. It looks like his long awaited “CAPSLOCK” video is almost ready and will be premiering at the Clairemont park down in San Diego on July 28th! The combination between knowing it’s a Dennis Enarson video and that there is a premiere party planned around it can only mean it’s an absolute banger. We would imagine it’ll make its way online shortly after this premiere, so get stoked if you can’t make the trip!
“Dennis has been working on his new CAPSLOCK video for a couple years now and it’s finally getting wrapped up the end of this month. Dennis has been saying it’s his craziest yet and usually when he says that, we get very f-n excited to say the least. We’re holding down a jam and the video premiere at Dennis’ home park at Claremont skatepark July 28th and starts at 5p. More info is on the flyer. See you guys there!” – Demolition Parts
Montana Ricky – Bike Life
Montana Ricky has a new video with a big surprise for you to check out…
It looks like Montana Ricky got hooked up with a few big bikes from SE Bikes and has been putting the bikes to good use in the Merritt warehouse and out on some street spots and trails. The wheels might be bigger, but it’s safe to say that hasn’t keep Ricky from getting creative.
“I have been riding around and trying out the big wheel life. I know I normally ride bmx but hey sometimes change is good. It feels completely different and somewhat foreign but I wanted to try to spice things up on the “wheelie boy” world and show them that you can do more then just wheelies on these bikes. Huge thank you to @rideoutsupply and @sebikes for helping out with bikes and gear. I hope you all enjoy this video.” – Montana Ricky
Chris O’Neil Video
Get a look at this fresh video featuring Chris O’Neil going to work on spots in Ireland…
It has been a little while since we’ve seen Chris O’Neil‘s name pop up, but it’s clear he’s been busy putting in work on his bike. Here’s a fresh one DIG released featuring Chris putting his pegs to heavy use on every rail he came across, along with a bunch o other great spots.
“The latest in our DIG LOCALS video series comes from our original home country of Ireland and features Chris O’Neill – yet another up and coming shredder who is flying well below the radar outside of his own scene. Here’s what the filmer Michael Haran, and long longtime Irish scene kingpin (and the man behind Ireland’s main BMX store The Boardroom) Derek Johnson, had to say about him.” – DIG
“It’s been awesome having Chris added to our shop team and we always knew he had some special talent since his riding stood out amongst the rest. He’s the nicest kid and very humble with a pro-active outlook to what is possible, His riding alone is pretty much miraculous since he lives in the middle of Ireland, nowhere near any majors scenes that have existed. Check this out with the knowledge that he’s pushed himself so hard for the last year along with Michael working hard behind the camera.” – Derek Johnson
“Chris O’Neill has been added to The Boardroom Team since the end of 2016 and from seeing what he could do via his instagram feed, and at local jams etc, I knew that he would definitely be able to film a seriously wild part. Shortly after this I hit him up and he was down to put in some work. He’s a very laid back guy that can come across as quite shy but that’s put behind him when he gets on a bike. He has spent countless hours going back and forth with me trying to nail some of the hugely technical lines along with the wild clips he’s managed to pull off. He has gone beyond what I thought was possible and I’m so stoked to finally show everyone what we have been working on over the last 12 months.” – Michael Haran
