It looks like LUX BMX have added Denby Chandler to their shop squad! Denby is a grinding machine and he makes it super easy to see just why LUX picked him up in this welcome video! Hit play if you’re looking for some dialed street riding.

“I took a trip out to Brisbane, Australia this year, and was lucky enough to become friends with Denby Chandler. Not long after riding around, and having him show me local spots we were already filming. Denby was defiantly the nicest and most humble dude I met the whole trip, and I couldn’t be more hyped to drop this video we made for him, and his new move onto the LUX team! cheers to everyone who was apart of this and congrats Denby!” – Dave Pendleton

Sosh Urban Motion 2016 Details

August 27, 2016

The annual Sosh Urban Motion video contest is going down once again! It sounds like this year Arnaud Wolff and Leo Balay, Courage Adams and Cristian Traila and Dennis Enarson and Peter Adam will make up the three pro teams. But this year they have a WILD CARD contest that’s open to 27 countries in the European Union (UK included, don’t worry about that Brexit stuff).

To enter the wild card contest, one rider and one filmer can team up to make their best ONE minute video that you need to upload to Instagram with the hashtag #mysoshurbanmotion BEFORE the September 30th deadline! They will pick one Wild Card team from France and two Wild Card teams from the rest of Europe to compete.

It sounds like the first 15 teams to submit a video will get prizes from the sponsors, so even if you don’t win, you can still win.

Ricky Hoffman, Big Boy, and myself hopped into my WRX STI and headed west! We went straight to the place to pick up the “Thing” I had to get then we went over to Carnegie skatepark to ride the awesome concrete skatepark! There were a lot of cool locals we met and rode with! And we all got some tricks in there before we raced over to The Wheel Mill indoor skatepark! The place is amazing and we all had such an awesome last hour of the session and tried our hardest to ride every ramp in the place! Big Boy smashed his nuts! It was hilarious!
