Yoyo’s Pool Party

July 6, 2018

“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

July 5, 2018

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
