Subrosa – Mark Burnett Welcome Video

April 20, 2018

Here it is! Mark Burnett’s welcome to Subrosa video has dropped and it’s absolute FIRE.

It was announced a few weeks back that Mark Burnett had parted ways with his long time sponsor, Sunday Bikes, to join the Subrosa team. Once the news dropped, Mark hopped a plane to Arizona and went to work stacking a TON of heavy clips for this welcome video! Even on a short timeline, Mark was able to stack all sorts of wild clips from big grinds to crazy combos filled with nose balance, barspins, tailwhips and more. This turned out damn good and it’s an absolute MUST SEE. Expect to see plenty more from Mark this year since it seems like the Subrosa team have been making some big moves for 2018.

After you watch the video, check out a bunch of photos right here on the Subrosa website!

“Wow! I knew we were in for something special went Mark set off to film his Welcome to Subrosa video with Ryan Chadwick, but to film this in a weeks time completely blew me away!

Everything about Mark on and off the bike makes him another great addition to the Subrosa family!

Sit back, turn it up, and enjoy newest Subrosa pro rider Mark Burnett killing spots all over Phoenix, Arizona.

WELCOME MARK! WE ARE SO STOKED TO HAVE YA!

Mark joins a Subrosa pro team of Kyle Hart, Lahsaan Kobza, Simone Barraco, Joris Coulmb, Matt Ray, Coco Zurita, Trey Jones, and Kevin Kalkoff.
