The Back Bone Video – Jack O’Reilly Section

August 14, 2017

The Back Bone BMX crew coming through with another banger from “The Back Bone Video” for your viewing pleasure. This time around we get a section filled with hammers from Jack O’Reilly who is no stranger to putting his pegs to good use on everything he touches from flat ledges to huge rails. If you’re looking for grinds, you won’t want to pass this one up! Enjoy!

“Jack O’Reilly was relentless while filming for the Back Bone Video. Jack went out and worked his ass off finding spots and filming gnarly stuff, weekly for 18 months, and it shows in his part. Big rails and heavy tricks, filmed almost exclusively in Canberra. We’re stoked to have Jack bring in the final section of the Back Bone video and he is a long way from done finding gnarly spots and shutting them down.

Filmed and edited by Brendan Boeck with additional filming by the crew.

August 14, 2017

Scotty Cranmer has hit the 1 Million subscriber count on his Youtube channel and it’s been a crazy road from the start to his crash that left him paralyzed 10 months ago to getting his life back little by little, one step at a time. To celebrate 1 million subscribers, Scotty put together a video recapping the past 10 months of recovery, and then Scotty makes his way to the Incline Club to fulfill his promise that he made to everyone, rolling in on a ramp on his bike once again! Check it out! Hell yeah, Scotty!

“We made it to 1 million subscribers! In honor of this milestone I said that I would get back on my BMX bike and ride at my skate park for the first time since my accident 10 months ago when I broke my neck, smashed my skull, had three brain bleeds, and was expected to be paralyzed from the neck down! I have been so lucky throughout my recovery but this video proves that there is light at the end of every dark tunnel you just need the will and determination to find it. I miss being a professional BMX rider but this video means that I will always be one I am so excited to see how much progress I can make in the future and I am so excited to keep filming YouTube videos for you all! Thank you all for the love and support since the beginning I am so grateful for you all!” – Scotty Cranmer
