Colin Varanyak “Animal House” Section

September 2, 2016

Colin Varanyak crushed it during his stay at the “Animal House”…

We were wondering if the individual sections from the Animal Bikes “The Animal House” video would be making it online. Well, today it starts now. Here’s a look at Colin Varanyak‘s section that’s packed with some heavy, heavy clips from the time spent in New York City with the crew! We really love the film work in this one, too. Ryan Navazio crushed it with this one.

WATCH: Animal Bikes – The Animal House: BMX In New York City

“When The Animal House dropped late last year it was surrounded by a ton of excitement, and it was one of the rare times that a major project fully lived up to the hype. Colin Varanyak closed the mixtape out with banger after banger, including an ender that is not hyperbolic to call next level shit.

Shawn McIntosh X Bates Motel

September 2, 2016

Here’s an interesting one for your viewing pleasure! Although Shawn McIntosh is healing up from a Broken Leg, he had filmed this gem with Miles Rogoish before shit hit the fan. Hit play to watch Shawn get down inside the legendary Bates Motel in Los Angeles with an all white kit. Below you can get the story from Shawn. Check it!

“I drove by this building one morning and seen it was all white. My friend in the car with me said “that’s the bates motel” . So I started thinking hey! Wouldn’t it be cool to paint my bike all white and wear all white and go ride in it? So right then I hit up my good buddy @mrogoish over at @rogoishfilms and projected the idea. Instantly he was down, so I got everything in order to go and ride this. When we got to the place it was littered with models and photographers all out side of the fence shooting. So I roll around the side and see this combination lock and of course I check it out and start twisting the locks numbers, just so happens that they sprayed the place with the right combo on the lock to open it so all the right numbers were white! Popped the lock and slid the gate open. Instant satisfaction. All the models were totally jelous asking for permission to come in and we declined. Ignoring everyone on the outside world for the moment,This place felt like I was on a different planet and I was alone in my own world. Wasn’t much stuff to ride but we just played around and got “artsy”… So enjoy and thanks for watching.” – Shawn McIntosh

Dakota Bratt – Thursdays at Burbank

September 2, 2016

We have really cut back on posting the whole webisode stuff just because it’s getting to the point where everyone and their mother is trying to VLOG it up with the chance of making some money and building a massive fanbase. Sitting through 10+ minute long videos to watch people stumble around, drink coffee and sometimes ride got old really fast. Today, Dakota Bratt sent through his latest video and we almost passed on posting it, but luckily it was mostly riding from a session at the Burbank skatepark. Hit play to check out a bunch of clips Dakota and a few of his friends stacked during a session.

Scotty Cranmer – Falls Township Skatepark Session

September 1, 2016

Scotty Cranmer and Big Boy made a trip out to the Falls Township skatepark in Pennsylvania to roll the dice and catch a session before getting kicked out because no bikes are allowed. Fortunately for them, they were able to get a little riding in before they were kicked out. Check out what went down! Apparently Big Boy can tailwhip… Sometimes..

“We took a trip to a skatepark we had never been to before in Falls township, PA and judging by the name of this place I knew this wasting to be Big Boy’s kind of park! We got riding the mini ramp straight away and Big Boy and myself both did some flairs and then I played around on the railings before heading over to the street section! I always see comments from people asking if Big Boy could tail whip or not so I figured we should settle the debate and get some tail whips in this video! Big Boy did a tail whip fly out that took a few tries then we went over to the half pipe and I called him out on a line Barspin- tail whip- 360 fakie and that’s when things got really interesting! Big Boy hit his nuts really bad once again and then proceeded to wreck his ankle a few more times but he did land the trick! After that we got kicked out of the skatepark and decided to do a quick lap around the park to see if there was anything that we could ride! I tail whipped a pile of dirt and Big Boy decided to ride into the lake… again.. Even though we didn’t get to ride the skatepark for as long as we wished we still had a relayed time! That’s BMX!”
