MarieJade – Milkshake 8 – Part 8

December 30, 2016

The final installment of the year long MarieJade Milkshake 8 series has arrived. The 8th video is much like the previous seven, filled with amazing riding, rad spots and some great film work, except this one is solely an Alex Valentino section that breaks from the mix sections we’ve seen in the other videos. That’s not a bad thing, because Alex brings the heat with his signature style and film direction that makes this more than just a “BMX video”. You might catch yourself checking if the final credits are rolling a few times in this one, but each time you’re then treated to more riding! Check it!

“We are back with another Milkshake, this one a bit different.
The Milkshake 8 gonna be in 8 parts, and here the Last one.

“They are usually Riding and I’m filming but for the last one they filmed and I rode, so I went to spend five days with Leo at is hometown, a summer day with Arnaud and three days with Bad” – Alex Valentino

Reed Stark – Safari: Morocco: Part 5

December 29, 2016

It’s crazy how much footage Reed Stark collected during his time in Morocco. Here’s the 5th video where Reed goes to work on a couple different street spots and a look at some of the footage he collected off his bike as well.

“Mobbin from the coast to the Sahara Desert through niche city and the High Atlas mountains. Took about 3 days of train, bus, and taxi trips. Each hour we traveled the weather got hotter. Hopefully the people in that car didn’t die but fuck who knows.”

Tall Order – Pocket Socket BMX Tool

December 29, 2016

There’s no doubt that having the right Tools are an essential for any rider, it does help that things have been simplified down greatly over the years to the point where you really only need allen keys or a 17mm socket to work on pretty much everything on your bike except for the spokes or maybe getting your tire off the wheel. We have seen a number of Multi-Tools over the years like the DK Random Wrench to the Merritt Trifecta tool that have simplified carrying around a bag of tools with you. The guys at Tall Order have decided to simplify it even more and made this tool that literally only has 6mm and 8mm allen key heads, a 17mm socket and enough of a handle to get some leverage to crank your nuts and bolts tight.

The Pocket Socket BMX Tool comes in black and chrome, weighs in at 4 oz. and is available through BMX shops and mail-orders that carry Tall Order worldwide for around $19.99.
