The Best of Gabe Brooks

August 15, 2016

We haven’t seen much from Gabe Brooks since he parted ways with Stranger a while back, which is definitely unfortunate since he’s a serious shredder. Fortunately, a fan put together a compilation of footage that’s packed full of some amazing riding from Gabe for your viewing pleasure. This has a ton of grinds, along with some serious pop, big stretched supermans, plenty of freecoaster action and even a little gymnastics action since that’s Gabe’s background. Take a look!

August 15, 2016

Red Bull just sent through the sixth episode of Drew Bezanson‘s “The Learning Curve” giving us a look at his voyage into giving downhill mountain bike contests a go. This episode gives us a look at his last real chance to qualify for the Joyride contest he’s been working toward for a few months. Can he do it? Hit play and find out.

“This week on The Learning Curve with Drew Bezanson, we find the Canadian at the Colorado Freeride Festival, on the hunt for an elusive wildcard pick that could land him that coveted spot at Red Bull Joyride.
Midway through the season, with only 88 points of the 1,150 needed to qualify for the season finale event in Whistler, Bezanson is on the ropes as he stares down his last chance to fulfil five months’ worth of hard work.
Earning a first-place position in his first run, he gains some early momentum in the contest until a blown wheel on his second attempt throws a wrench in his plans. Can he get back on track and find the ticket to Red Bull Joyride he so desperately wants?”

Billy Perry – Broke My Ankle In Spain

August 15, 2016

One of the downsides to riding BMX is that injuries happen and broken bones aren’t uncommon. Billy Perry took a trip over to Barcelona and on the very first day he ended up breaking his ankle! Here’s a look at some of the riding he got in, followed up by the crash and a trip to the hospital. It sounds like surgery and a lot of down time is in Billy’s future, such a bummer. Get well soon!

“My first day in Barcelona didn’t go as planned when I fell on what I thought was an easy and not so risky first clip. I was proven wrong when i broke my ankle in 2 spots and found out i need to get surgery.”
