Monster Energy – Dan Lacey “Believe”

September 12, 2017

On Sunday night, Monster Energy released Dan Lacey‘s highly anticipated “Beyond” video that was filled with incredible clips he wasn’t able to get done for his “Above Below” part in 2014. When that video was released, Monster also released this 13 minute video giving you a little behind the scenes look at what went into the project with insight from Dan, b-roll, crashes, second angles and more. We shared this video with the “Beyond” video, but figured it deserved its own post to make sure you guys got a look at it. Hit play and enjoy!

Now, go re-watch Dan Lacey’s “Beyond” video!

“In 2014 we released ABOVE BELOW to the BMX world showing some of the most epic street riding in history as well as what it took to get there.

In January 2015, Monster Energy BMX rider Dan Lacey decided he had to go back for some unfinished business from the last project and BEYÔND was born.

Here we give you part 1 BELIEVE showing the struggle and victory’s Dan endured to get this done. Once you have watched this, head and watch part 2 for the savage action!”

Daniel Wedemeijer – Bali Bowls

September 12, 2017

It’s crazy how many places on this planet that you might not think of as a great place to ride. Daniel Wedemeijer was recently invited over to the island of Bali to ride a few amazing spots from skateparks to private bowls. Going into it, he wasn’t quite sure what to expect, but it turns out the place has a lot to offer if you know where you’re looking. This video gives us a look at what went down on and off the bikes during his stay! It’s safe to say that Bali might just be worth looking into for your next trip!

“At first I never thought I would ride my bmx bike on Bali. But luckily a fellow bmx rider tagged me on Instagram. This got me so hyped I decided to jump on a plane to Bali. It’s been an amazing trip with a good group of people. Enjoy the video and let me know what you think of it in the comments!

Josh Khoury – Tianjin China BMX 2017

September 11, 2017

It’s always crazy to find out about riders that are super dialed, but completely off our radar. It seems like a lot of riders that ride demo teams or shows seem to slide by without the attention they deserve. Here’s a video featuring Josh Khoury which is a perfect example of that. We weren’t familiar with Josh prior to this, but he definitely brought the heat for the video on the ramps he spent a few months doing shows on! Take a look and get familiar.
