Matt Coplon – Year 40

June 7, 2017

The other week Matt Coplon hit level 4 and is celebrating with a brand new video packed with gold from street, skatepark and backyard ramp sessions that he has been getting in! As always, Matt brings a bunch of creativity to the table and keeps things interesting from start to finish, so hit play and check out what all those years of experience has created!

“Here at DIG we just can’t say enough good things about this guy. His contribution to BMX is second to none on so many levels and even his music taste rules. Welcome to Level 4 Matt!

“I remember my parent’s 40th birthday. “Over the hill” written in black icing, with a sugary tombstone and a vulture perched on top of their macabre cake. It was so distant. So inconceivable, personally: The beginning of the end. And now, here we are…

In the hollow anticipation of impending change, this is a collection of clips on the way to my 40th.

I hope you enjoy.” – Matt Coplon

United BMX – Introducing the Mini-RIG Bluetooth Speaker

June 7, 2017

We have come a long way since the days of the Osiris G-Bag that had two speakers and required like 8 D batteries to keep it going for about a half hour, haha. Who remembers those backpacks with the built in speakers? Good times, good times. Luckily, technology has evolved in millions of ways for the better. For example, you can know carry a Bluetooth speaker with you that is far more compact, sounds incredibly better and lasts for hours on a charge and doesn’t require constantly buying new batteries. The crew at United BMX decided it was time a BMX company made a Bluetooth Speaker for the riders that they could bring to the session. Today, they released their new Mini-RIG Bluetooth Speaker. This little guy is capable of keeping the tunes flowing for the entire session and some. It has a clean and compact shape and design, too. Get the full details below!
