Whenever Empire BMX drops a new video, you know you’re going to get something rad. Here’s a fresh one featuring Santana and Big Rob out cruising spots around Austin, Texas from street spots to some of the old T1 ramp, House Park and more.

Woodward East – VIP: Adam Banton

January 18, 2018

Adam Banton gets creative for this new VIP from Woodward East!

We’re always stoked when Adam Banton‘s name pops up in a new video. The reason? We can always count on him to come through with some creative and unique riding that is unpredictable and a real good watch. This time around we get some double duty action because Adam also produced the song for this one with a few friends, too. Check out some great riding and enjoy the tunes in the latest VIP video from Woodward East!

“Anybody who has ridden BMX throughout the years knows how influential Adam Banton’s riding has been. Its always refreshing to see someone progress continually throughout the years and keep such a positive mindset.” – Woodward East

From Adam:

“It had been too long since I was back on the East coast at Woodward. I wasn’t sure what to expect honestly, I knew so much had changed, but in some ways camp seemed to look the same in recent vids from when I was a camper ages ago. I knew it had grown into a massive city of skateparks and I’ve heard great things of the music program they offer as well. After filming BMX most of everyday I’d go hang with music campers. I spent time rehearsing a song I wrote that week and jamming with Chris the music director. We finally recorded it my last day. I wanted to film some different things at camp and tried keeping an opening mind on what and where they would be. I had so much fun making music, riding and meeting tons of new people in a short time. Can’t wait to come back, thanks to all the staff, Josh Babu and awesome campers I met. I love Woodward.” – Adam Banton

Scotty Cranmer – Pump Track Showdown

January 18, 2018

The guys decided to see who could make it through The Wheel Mill pump track the fastest!

If you caught yesterdays video that Scotty Cranmer uploaded from a session the guys got in at The Wheel Mill, then you knew the guys were going to have a time trial on the pump track to see who is the fastest. Check out the video to see if anyone could beat Chris Doyle‘s time.

“At The Wheel Mill bike park we decided to have a race around the pump track while using the laser timing system! We met up with some of the local BMX riders including my old friend and fellow professional BMX rider Chris Doyle! Each rider had one chance to get there fastest lap around the track and it came down to the wire to decide the winner! Only one rider became the pump track race champion!” – Scotty Cranmer

Building A DIY Skatepark

January 18, 2018

There’s something special about a DIY spot that a bunch of friends come together to build and end up making one hell of a skatepark!

Over the years we have seen a number of DIY spots, but this is definitely up there for one of the raddest. Over the course of the past 4 or so years, Matt Burton and a big crew of riders have built an AMAZING looking cement park to ride. It sounds like this place started out as a few dirt jumps, and now it’s this incredible cement park for everyone to ride. We need more of this around the world!

“In January 2013 Matt Burton began to build some rudimentary mud jumps on a piece of discarded land, cut to 2017 and with serious determination (and a little help from friends) that basic idea had transformed into a fully fledged concrete skatepark. Grab your mates, grab a spade and get building.

Watch the full build here…” – Rance Film

“January 2013 – March 2017. Saint Neots Riders built a concrete DIY spot under the Bypass bridge. Under the bridge was waste land and people would use it for dumping rubbish. A lot of hours and hard work they piled up the rubbish and covered it in dirt. Then after ridding it for a year with no problems they decided to concreted it! The end result was completely worth it! A dry bowl/skatepark to ride what ever the weather.”

The Fit Bike Co. took a trip to The Sanctuary for their latest F-Log video…

Fit Bike Co. are back at it with the F-Logs. Here’s a new one from a trip the team took to The Sanctuary to spend some time riding. This one starts out with some laughs from the trip, then the crew proceeds to have a damn good time riding the dirt jumps and ramps all around the Santucary. This place looks like a ton of fun to ride every time a video pops up from the place!

“The gang visits the Sanctuary for a little BMX get away.

Source BMX – Bullseye: Jordan Godwin

January 18, 2018

Source BMX are back with a new Bullseye featuring Jordan Godwin…

The concept is simple. Pin up a few different spots on a board, and then have a guy like Jordan Godwin throw a dart at it to find out what spot he has to ride. After that, it’s all up to them to cook up a quick clip. Check out what Jordan did for this new Bullseye from Source BMX!

“This was a very cold and windy day in Hastings and Jordan had to venture out of the SOURCE PARK and ride the one spot he really didn’t want

Should have brushed up on his darts game before visiting I guess…” – Source BMX

Now this is a proper way to spend a birthday! The other day Scotty Cranmer and crew made the trip to The Wheel Mill in Pittsburgh to spend a day riding with the one and only Chris Doyle to celebrate Scotty’s birthday. Hit play to see what went down as the guys rode! Plenty of trains and good times in this one.

“My Birthday was on the 11th and the boys and I went to have a session at the wheel mill one of my favorite skateparks and we all had so much fun! This skate park is absolutely amazing there are so many ramps in this place and the box jump room is absolutely amazing! We met up with one of my favorite riders the legendary Chris Doyle and Cory got to do a turn down with Chris which is been a lifelong dream for him! Thanks for all your B DAY wishes on Instagram and hope you guys enjoy this video!” – Scotty Cranmer
