Colony just dropped a brand new Bike Check with Bobbie Altiser and his current Sweet Tooth setup that he’s running. This bike has these things we don’t see all too often called front and back brakes, and some of those classic locking brake levers for maximum front and back brake magic. You can check out a full parts list along with a couple photos of this dialed unit on the Colony website — Bobbie Altiser Bike Check
“Connetication” Promo
Here’s one for you guys that love the look and feel of an East Coast street BMX video. Sam Jones (U.S) dropped this promo video for the Connetication video that he’s been working on with his crew. Based off what we’re seeing in this teaser and what we know from the guys that will have parts in the video, this is bound to be real good. Even better, you don’t have to wait long for this one because it’s due out this month, too!
“Promo for Connetication releasing February 2017.

Travis Hughes – Park Days
You might see Travis Hughes out crushing street spots all the time, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t spend time cruising skateparks, too. Here’s a fresh one featuring Travis going to work at a couple different skateparks and plazas out in California, mixing grinds and big cranked turndowns. As always, Travis does NOT disappoint. Check it!
“Kink pro Travis Hughes is dialed far beyond his years. Watch him put an absolute slaying on a bunch of plazas in the San Diego area. The future is bright!

Nation BMX – Ben Hittle “Non-Stop” Section
It’s always a good day when some Ben Hittle footage surfaces online, no matter what year it is from. Ride BMX uploaded Ben’s section from the Nation BMX “Non-Stop” video that came out back in 2005 and it’s packed full of style! This video is a mix of ramps, street and dirt action with plenty of stalls, fufanu and abubaca combos, technical lip tricks, big cranked turndowns and look backs, and so much more. Ben is a really good example of how good that “mid-school” style really was.
If you missed it the other day, here’s Garrett Reynolds’ Nation BMX “Non-Stop” section!
“Ben Hittle is likely one of the best to ever do it on the archaic, straight cable/cassette hub set up. Though it’s been years since his departure from BMX, and even longer since this section game out, moves like these will always be timeless.”
A Two Wheeled Adventure – Desmond Tessemaker
If it has two wheels, Desmond Tessemaker probably rips on it. Here’s a video from a recent trip he took where BMX bikes, motorcycles, mountain bikes and more were all put to good use! This is definitely a video for those of you who like to mix things up beyond just BMX. Great riding footage, some clean film work and plenty of energy. You can’t go wrong with this one.
“Follow Desmond Tessemaker on his Two Wheeled Adventure through France! Desmond came from a BMX racing background and got into the freestyle scene riding trails with his race friends. In this edit we go back to his roots hitting up an iconic French trails spot. As this road trip was all about fun we brought out the KTM250SX and Desmond’s Radon Mountainbike to optimise the fun!
