What BMX Was Like In 1979

April 4, 2018

If you have wondered what BMX was like in 1979, this BMX video will answer a few questions…

It’s always interesting seeing the difference of BMX in the past versus what it’s like today. Virtually everything has changed from the bikes and clothes to the tricks and styles. One thing that has stayed the same is that it’s a whole lot of fun. We had this video sent over featuring the Plainwell crew riding back in 1979 at the track, some trails and a few questionable ramp setups to jump over things like cars. It features a few names you might know like Stompin’ Stu Thomsen or Scott Towne, and a few names you might not recognize. Either way, this is pretty interesting to check out!

“Super 8 Movie BMX footage from 1979, with Plainwell BMX locals: Larry & Ted Lowis, Scott Towne, Jeff Bragington, Ben Lyon. Star cameos by Stu Thomsen, Turnell Henry and the wheelie king, the late Doug Domokos.” – Scott Towne

“Been a few years of riding with this guy and we never really did an actual edit together so last night after work we filmed some clips and did some bmx dancing.” – Montana Ricky

Check out Kris Bunnage’s fresh video for Custom Riders!

Here’s a video we had sent through featuring Kris Bunnage going to work on street spots around London, Milton Keynes, Barcelona and Cambridge for Custom Riders. Kris runs four pegs and he knows how to put them to good use on everything he touches from rails to ledges. Add in some crank flips, spins, some freecoaster action, nose balance and more and you have a BMX video that’s well worth a look. Check it!
