Flybikes – Sem Kok Bike Check

February 6, 2019

If you followed the Vans BMX Pro Cup or watched the Battle of Hastings contest last year, there’s a good chance you probably saw Sem Kok‘s name pop up. Last year the guy was seriously popping up everywhere and he seemed to come out of nowhere. Either way, Sem goes fast and big with a ton of style! It looks like he dialed in a brand new Flybikes setup for 2019 and it’s looking damn good. You can check out a full bike check with a bunch of photos and a full parts list over on the Flybikes website now!

KINK – THE BEST FOOTAGE OF 2018

February 6, 2019

Kink recapping another banger of a year with plenty of miles logged…

Every year the Kink team ends up logging a ton of miles and stacking a bunch of clips, and 2018 was another banger year. Darryl Tocco might have retired as a Pro, but he’s still killing it behind the lens! Here’s a recap of the best footage from Chris Doyle, Dan Coller, Sean Sexton, Darryl Tocco, Travis Hughes, Nathan Williams, Chad Osburn, Calvin Kosovich, Casey Starling and more!

“Another year packed full of travels, riding, new spots, new tricks and some slams. Enjoy some of the best footy selected by Darryl Tocco from last years missions!

LEWIS MILLS ON MONSTER ENERGY

February 6, 2019

It looks like Lewis Mills will be rolling around with a little more energy. Lewis announced that he has been added to the Monster Energy team down in Australia. We would imagine this means we will be seeing a ton more of Lewis in 2019, and based off what he threw down in 2018, we’re in for a treat. Get stoked!

Anne Hofsink X Samcity

February 6, 2019

Here’s a short but sweet one from a solo session that Anne Hofsink got in at the Samcity Park over in the Netherlands! This has a pretty laid back vibe, but Anne puts his pegs to good use and the place looks like a bunch of fun to ride! Really digging the clean look of that park!

“Anne Hofsink and i got a private session in at the new Samcity park.
Had a good time filming this indoor session, show some love in the comments if you like it.

SNEAK PEEK: TALL ORDER – NEW COLORWAYS

February 6, 2019

Corey Bohan, Matty Cranmer and Kieran Reilly are getting signature colorways from Tall Order!

Here’s a sneak peek look at the new colorways that Tall Order will be releasing on April 5th. Corey Bohan will be getting a Grey 315 frame, Matty Cranmer will be getting a Yellow 215 V2 frame and Keiran Reilly will be getting a Pink 187 V2 frame. No word if there’s anything changing with these frames as far as specs go in comparison to the existing versions of each frame, but it looks to be just a fresh coat of paint for each of these guys!

Curious what Ed Zunda is running for a setup these days? Wethepeople caught up with Ed to get a closer look at his current signature Awake setup decked out top to bottom in Wethepeople parts! You can check out more photos and a full parts list right here — Wethepeople Website!

Out of curiosity, who can see front load stems and slim seats making a comeback in 2019? We’ve seen a few other riders starting to do that again and it seems like it could be picking back up again. Let us know what you think in the comments below!

Pumped BMX Pro Coming February 7th

February 5, 2019

UPDATE: The Pumped BMX Pro game is now available on XBox, Steam and Nintendo Switch!

Here’s some game news for you! On February 7th, Pumped BMX Pro is coming to XBox, Steam and Nintendo Switch! This doesn’t appear to be the new Trail Boss game that Adam Hunt has been working on, but it does look to be another Pumped BMX game to get down with when you can’t ride (it’s snowing… a lot… right now) outside or catch an indoor session. Above is a trailer, but beyond that we don’t have too many details. The last update on Trail Boss was in October of last year and Adam mentioned that he was hoping to have that game wrapped up early 2019, so hopefully we’ll be seeing that one sooner than later as well! Either way, mark your calendars! This Thursday Pumped BMX Pro will be dropping!

“Curve Digital is proud to announce that Pumped BMX Pro is launching on February 7th, 2019 for PC, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch. Developed by one man studio Yeah Us! Games, Pumped BMX Pro is the sequel to the hugely successful Pumped BMX +. The momentum-based BMX freestyler takes the action to the next level with a beautiful new look, a fresh new physics engine and more content than ever before!

Choose from 15 riders with pre-designed bikes, or come up with your own in the easy to use bike creator. Once you’re ready to hit the tracks, get creative with more than 40 trick options and combo your way through over 60 insane levels, maintaining your flow to ensure you reach the next obstacle wheels first instead of face first. For the best riders out there, there are over 200 challenges to beat. Have you got what it takes to go pro? High score chasers can compete on the global leaderboards, to see if they can thrash at the same level as the best riders in the world!”

Also, if you want a comparison of this game verus Trail Boss (made by the same guy if you haven’t caught on), check out this clip below…
