Madera BMX – “10 Year Mixtape” Erik Elstran & Tom Villarreal

November 10, 2016

Madera have begun uploading the individual sections from their “10 Year Mixtape” that dropped online a little while back. This starts off with Erik Elstran and Tom Villarreal‘s section that’s packed full of creativity, big gaps and style! Hit play and enjoy!

“Madera BMX – Erik Elstran/Tom Villarreal Split – 2016 Video

The beginning of 2016 marked 10 years of existence for Madera. From three simple products to a full line of parts, we have grown thanks to two things: the people who have supported us and the riders who represent us. So, to celebrate 10 years of American-made BMX parts, 10 years of riding and traveling, and 10 years of great times, we think it’s fitting to showcase the riders who keep us going in a video made for the people who have kept us going. The team, some old and some new, have worked hard for the last 9 months to do what they do best and share it with all of you who have supported us in the past, continue to support us now, or may support us in the future. Check out what makes us tick, what we are proud to share, and what we hope gets you stoked. Thanks for all of your support and here’s to another 10 years!

We have been really stoked to see all of the parts from the “Blueprint” video popping up online.

Here’s is John Bristol and Andy Merrall‘s section that is packed full of goodness from skateparks, vert ramps, trails spots and some street. This has a great mix of tricks and styles keeping things interesting from start to finish. Enjoy!
