The Quest For High Air – Reflections

June 16, 2016

The third part for “The Quest For High Air” series is now online! The other days we got Mat Hoffman‘s perspective ( WATCH: Mat Hoffman – The Quest For High Air ), then yesterday we got Danny Way’s perspective ( WATCH: Danny Way – The Quest For High Air ). Today, we get Mat and Danny together talking about the big ramp and what motivated them to give it a go and to keep pushing each other to new limits. This is absolutely amazing.

“Big air legends Mat Hoffman and Danny Way sit down for a roundtable discussion about their never ending quest for big air on BMX bikes and skateboards.” – X Games

Seventies Distribution Now Carrying Total BMX

June 16, 2016

If you’re looking for Total BMX in the U.K, then we have some good news for you. Total BMX is now (well, starting next week) being distributed by Seventies Distribution! Below is a little more news about the new partnership that should make getting their products even easier!

“We’re pleased to announce that from Monday 20th June Seventies will be the new Total BMX distributor in the UK. We have been huge fans of the brand for many years and have watched Ronnie Remo turn Total from a small start up into the leading BMX Park brand! Park riding is extremely popular in the UK and as BMX rises out of the current recession this brand will continue to dominate this sector of the market. Total is also one of the title sponsors of this year’s NASS Freestyle World Championships in July where Total Pro Team riders Daniel Sandoval, Mark Webb, Nick Bruce and Alex Coleborn will be competing.

Ronnie said of the partnership “I am really happy to be working with Stuart and his team of like minded BMX people at Seventies who I have known for many years. They really understand the brand and its needs and we both have the same goal of growing and supporting BMX in the UK”.

We will be shipping out the first Total BMX orders on Monday and have some exciting new products including the Skinnies V2 pegs, Killabee headset, two new colour ways of the popular Voltron V2 frame as well as many other items that are currently sold out in the UK.”

Jed Mildon Is Back On It

June 16, 2016

After six months off his bike due to injuries, it looks like Jed Mildon is getting back into the swing of things. Here’s a fresh video of him getting his first session back on some resi ramps and foam pits. There’s more lifestyle shots in this than riding, and an awkward scene of him pulling beef jerky out of his pocket, which were not sure if it was a product promo or if he was just hungry… Either way, stick around for the end because it looks like Jed is working on something new and it’s crazy.
