Los Angeles Ride – Caique Gomes

June 21, 2017

Here’s a rad video we had sent through by Alex Merriman featuring Caique Gomes out cruising around Los Angeles. We’re not sure why it took a few years for this footage to surface online, but it’s a real solid video we some great riding and super clean film work. Take a look!

“On a random Sunday afternoon a few years ago, I met pro BMX rider Caique Gomes in Long Beach, CA. With a skateboard under my feet and a RED Epic Dragon camera in my hands, we teamed up to shoot this video that day with zero plans of what it would become.
Venturing through the L.A. river in Compton to Downtown Los Angeles, we made our way across the city shooting as many tricks as possible.
In an effort to shoot quickly while on location, everything was captured handheld on a RED Epic Dragon. No Steadicam, Movi’s or tripods. The only other weapon of choice were a few varied focal length Schneider Cine-Xenar III lenses.

Scotty Cranmer – Progress Update: 8 Months

June 20, 2017

We have been following Scotty Cranmer and his progress since his accident that took him out 8 months ago and it’s been mind blowing seeing each step of recovery. Today, Scotty released a new update to show you his progress on the piano and then he shows us all of the progress he’s making with his walking without assistance. Once again, Scotty shows he’s making steady progress to getting back to his old ways! Hit play and take it all in!

“It’s been eight months since my life changing accident that left me paralyzed. Over the months I’ve gone from not being able to move a single part of my body to now being up on my feet and setting personal records for walking. I am also now able to start playing more songs on the piano and for longer periods of time. This has been the hardest year of my life but I know things are getting better every day and I’m grateful for that and I am also grateful for all the support from everybody around me. I am excited to keep on working hard and to one day get back on my bike again! Thank you all!” – Scotty Cranmer

Last week we were introduced to the Odyssey VS Sunday video project and now today we get the first batch of VX footage featuring footage from both Odyssey and Sunday Bikes going to work on spots around the house in Providence, Rhode Island. These clips are more meant to be B-Roll / Extras where the full team videos are being filmed in full HD. If these tricks didn’t make the cut for the full videos, we’re sure things are going to be insane. Check it!

“Odyssey and Sunday are proud to present the first of four monthly VX videos filmed and edited by our incredibly multitalented team riders while out at the Odyssey vs Sunday house.
