Corey Bohan Goes Golfing With Red Bull and Hank Haney

September 7, 2016

It’s always interesting seeing what pros are getting into when they aren’t on their bikes. If you follow Red Bull, then you know they do a lot to help their athletes improve their skills, whether it be in their sport, other sports or just for personal wellness. They recently recruited Corey Bohan for some training in the world of Golf with a wakeboarder and a skateboarder. Over the course of the 3 episodes, we get a look at how these guys did, along with some of the science that is involved in this. It’s not BMX, but it’s definitely an interesting watch. Check it!

“Bridging the gap between action sports and golf, a new three-part web series called “Distance Lab” in collaboration with Callaway features renowned golf instructor Hank Haney teaching action sports stars Corey Bohan (BMX), Steel Lafferty (wakeboarding) and Alex Midler (skateboarding) how to hit a golf ball further than they ever imagined.

In this first episode, Hank Haney meets these elite athletes and observes them hitting drives to get a sense of their game. After seeing one of the guy’s swings, Haney says, “we can always send out a search party.”

“In this second episode, the athletes visit Callaway’s Distance Lab where Hank Haney and his team get baseline readings of everyone’s swings, gather data to help increase distance and the athletes add speed and forgiveness with the XR 16 Driver.”

“In this third episode, it was competition day to see who had the most impressive improvement, with Steel Lafferty taking the crown. His max club head speed turned out to be higher than an average PGA Tour pro (120 mph). There is also a surprise cameo by two-time world long drive champion Jamie Sadlowski, who provides tips and inspiration.

All three athletes showed significant long distance improvement, with Lafferty enhancing his drive from 281 to 320 yards. Bohan, a three-time X Games gold medal BMX rider, improved from 208 to 275 yards. Midler, an 18-year old rising star in the skateboarding world, improved from 191 yards to 266 yards.

A Detroit Film – 43 Foot Turndown Over A Creek

September 7, 2016

Jordan Garland sent through the first episode of the “Journey to #ADetroitFilm” for you guys to check out. This video focuses around the crazy creek gap that Dillon Jaye decided to jump, and ultimately turndown. This video follows the story from building the kicker at Transition Skatepark to the actual jump with a lot of insight into other aspects of this event like photographers and painters who were there to show off their skills as well. There’s also a little detour to a behind the scenes look into a movie set that was being used in Detroit, as well. But back to the main point… This is a GNARLY gap and we’ve seen people give this gap a go in the past, but we’re pretty sure we have never seen anyone actually trick the gap. Check out what went down!

“The first episode introduces you to our journey while we create the full length film “#aDetroitFilm” ! This episode takes you behind the scenes as Dillon Jaye attempts to jump 43 feet over a creek on his BMX bike, as well as on set of a famous movie we stumbled on while urban exploring, you will not believe what we found!!
