Weird & Revered – At Home With Justin Schwanke

March 10, 2017

We’re always stoked to see some new footage from Justin Scwhanke. Here’s a new Weird & Revered video that DIG dropped featuring Justin getting down on his backyard ramp setup. As always, Justin came through with a TON of creative and unique clips that make for a super good watch. Get on that play button and enjoy!

“I filmed this video in my backyard throughout the summer and fall of 2016. Every session involved one camera, a tripod, an archaic MP3 player, headphones, and my ever-expanding list of trick ideas (most of which don’t actually work out). My usual audience is the assortment of birds and gophers who take up residence in the backyard. On occasion though, my neighbours may watch from afar in confusion. I can only imagine what they think when they hear grunts of frustration as I ride alone in the same line for hours on end.” – Justin Schwanke

Joe Molina – “Help Me Before It’s Too Late” Promo

March 10, 2017

It’s been a little while since we’ve seen a BMX video out of Joe Molina. Here’s a promo video that surfaced online that we’re not quite sure how to take. It has a bunch of real solid riding, but he’s also leading up to something more that we’re not quite sure what it’s completely about. Either way, the description of the video says “Full Video Coming soon….”, so we’re sure we’ll be finding out soon! Until then, hit play and try and figure this one out.

Inside BMX 2017 Mix

March 10, 2017

The crew at Inside BMX over in Russia sent over a link to this video. We tried translating it, but it didn’t get us very far, so we’ll just stick with the basics. This is a 21 minute long mix (we were expecting this to be a Vlog when we saw it) filled with riding from a ton of different riders getting down on the streets and skateparks. You definitely get Rick Rolled, but that’s okay because the riding makes up for that cruel joke. Actually, this whole video has a pretty hilarious soundtrack, so that’s okay. Hit play and take in all this goodness.

“Chasing the View Off the Cliff” – Jay Mirron Section (1994)

March 10, 2017

What were you doing in 1994? There’s a very strong possibility a good portion of you reading this either weren’t born yet or were young and hadn’t found BMX yet. I personally would have been 6 in ’94 and had not been introduced to BMX for a few more years, but Jay Miron was out there absolutely CRUSHING everything he touched. Above is the Canadian Beast’s section from the “Chasing the View Off the Cliff” that’s packed with some serious hammers on a bunch of different skateparks and vert ramps. This section even has Jay’s classic backflip to belly flop on a spine (there’s a reason that dude wore a chest protector all the time) that you may or may not have seen floating around before. This kicks a lot of ass, so check it out!
