July 24, 2017

This past weekend was the annual BMX Day celebration that brought together riders all over the world for a full day of riding. The Street Series threw one of their jams in Philadelphia with Dan Lacey leading the pack of what appeared to be a couple hundred riders spot to spot all over the city on a scorcher of a day. Check out this photogallery by Brendan Mulrooney giving you a look at some of the good times that were had!

BMX Day 2017 Highlight Videos

July 23, 2017

Saturday was the annual BMX Day that went down with jams planned all over the world from San Diego to Philadelphia, Melbourne, London and more! Thousands of riders turned out between all the stops and it made for some wild and rowdy crowds and plenty of dialed riding. Check out a whole bunch of videos from the day below!

“300+ BMX riders join Garrett Reynolds, Chad Kerley, Ty Morrow, Broc Raiford, Dakota Roche, and more to celebrate BMX Day 2017 at the Monster Energy Street Series in San Diego, California. Good times and great riding!” – Vital BMX

“The Philadelphia stop of The Street Series in conjunction with BMX Day was easily the largest Philly street jam to date. With such a huge turnout, there was tons of awesome riding and wild antics all throughout the equally as wild North Philly neighborhoods. Congrats to Pennsylvania native Mike Guth who took home the ring – after sending some of the wildest moves at the three main spots, it was well-deserved. Look out for more Street Series videos here on DIG.

“VANS celebrated BMX DAY opening the doors of his Park in Huntington Beach on a super hot 7/20 day! Many riders showed up and enjoyed a chill session. Good vibes, good tricks all over around the street course and bowl, some giveaways and gifts …

Featuring: Dakota Roche, Sean Ricany, Nick Tellez, Ricky Moseley, Veesh, Nick Krauer, Michael Harkous, Matt Cordoba, Kris Fox, Baby Johnny, Josh Clemens, Trevor Sigloch, Nathan Sykes and Jason Watzz.

Filmed by Fernando Gomarin Olaiz.” – DIG

“The London stop of The Street Series in conjunction with BMX Day started out wet and it stayed that way, but the legendary underground spot at Southbank kept everyone dry and entertained. These events aren’t always all about the riding but about seeing old faces and meeting new ones. Congrats to Matteo Vitali who took home the ring – you should have seen the size of his elbow after shredding all day.” – DIG BMX

“The first Street Series jam supporting BMX Day 2017 went down in Melbourne on Saturday with Ed Zunda and Jordan Godwin and Felix Prangenberg hosting the proceedings. We were there to catch all the highlights in this new episode of ‘In The Cut’ that also features the new king of Melbourne ‘Jimmy’. Look out for more from this crew soon as they head out on a WETHEPEOPLE trip.

Filmed by Paul Robinson” – DIG

“ In today’s adventure we put the video parts on hold to join in the BMX day festivities. Street series only comes once a year so we had to take advantage. This features some sick riding from our usual squad, Jacob Cable, Francis Castro, Crankflipper420 ( Chris Ambrose ), Murray, Sauce, etc and everyone else who killed it that day! This is shot from our point of view so if you want to go see all the crazy tricks that went down please check out your favorite media site.” – Common Crew

Alec Danelutti 2017 Video

July 22, 2017

It’s always rad coming across a video featuring a rider that absolutely shreds that we haven’t heard of. Here’s a video featuring Alec Danelutti throwing down at a bunch of different skateparks down in Australia. Alec has a deep bag of tricks and knows how to put it to good use. It sounds like Alec is getting flow from Colony now, so we’re sure we’ll be seeing more of him in the future. Take a peek!

“Introducing a new era of shredders repping Rampfest! We have watched Alec grow from a young pup to a full blown animal over these last few years and now, at the tender and fresh age of 17, he is messing with best of them!
