When it’s -2 degrees outside and you see a video of a rider escaping to Barcelona, Spain, you become pretty jealous. Volume Bikes‘ connect over in France decided to hop a plane to Barcelona, Spain for a little sunshine and spots. Here’s a short but sweet BMX video that came from his time there.

The other day we found out that Chase Hawk was OFF of Fox as well as Greg Illingworth. There were rumors that there were some massive changes coming to the Fox BMX program for 2017, and it’s safe to say those rumors are true. Aaron Ross announced today that he too will not be on the Fox team anymore. We heard that everyone from U.S to the U.K and Australia have been cut except for Scotty Cranmer, Pat Casey and Drew Bezanson, but we haven’t heard anything direct from Fox or those guys, yet. Get a few words from Aaron on the news below.
“I’m sure a few of you have noticed a lot of changes over at @foxheadinc so far this year. Along with those changes my 9 years with them has come to a end. It’s been nothing but a good time with good friends and can’t thank them enough for everything over all the years. The last few years we traveled the world and made some awesome memories I will never forget. Thanks again to everyone that’s ever helped out over there. Your friendship and time has meant the world to me! Thank you!”

It’s a compilation of BMX from the most pure of the region of the east of Antioquia in Colombia, filmed in around 6 towns with more than 30 local riders with an incredible talent!
Great level, lots of fun, many moments in family and especially a lot of street and park but without losing our essence.
During the month of December and January we will be premiering each of the sections of BMX that bring the different Riders and a very special Skateboarding section.

Nobody likes crashing, but it’s hard not to watch a bunch of other people take a crash. The guys at Freedom BMX were going through their 2016 archives and came across a bunch of crash clips that they compiled into one video for you to get a few laughs, drop a couple “OOOOOOOH”, “DAMN” and whatever else might come out of your mouth. Hit play and feel the pain!

Dan Coller has been given the well deserved bump on up to the Eclat Pro team!
Here’s some good news for your 2017 Sponsor changes! Dan Coller has been given the well deserved bump on up to the Eclat PRO team! To celebrate, here’s his welcome video that’s packed with some insanely dialed rail destruction. Expect to see plenty more from Dan in 2017!
“When it comes to rails, Dan Coller never ceases to amaze. Dan managed to find and conquer all sorts of weird handrail configurations for his welcome to Éclat pro video. Be prepared to get whomped over the head with a serious display of handrail superiority.” – Ride BMX

Today they uploaded the “La Familia” section that features their flow team riders and European team.

After you watch this, make sure you watch Scotty Cranmer’s Vans “Illustrated” section

The Vans family is diverse and we picked the best of each rider to put in this part to recognize the friends and family of Vans BMX from all walks of life. Featuring Trey Jones, Mike Gray, Larry Edgar, Dennis McCoy, Matthias Dandois, Tim Fuzzy Hall, Alex Hiam and more.”
