King Of Dirt – Mobile Game

May 29, 2016

If you’re looking for another BMX Game to play on your mobile phone, then you’re in luck. This morning we received an email from the latest game to pop up on the Google Play store called “King of Dirt”. The game features BMX, mountain bikes and… scooters. Ironically it doesn’t appear that there are much for courses that are actually dirt, but they do look pretty interesting setups from courses built out of street obstacles to riding spots on skyscraper cranes. King of Dirt allows you to play in first person or third person, they have an online competition and it sounds like you will be able to play games of B-I-K-E in the near future. They have 20+ tricks and 6 styles of bikes… Well, I should say 5 styles of bikes and 1 scooter… That you can customize to your liking.

You can check out more previews and information on the Google Play store. Do you have an iPhone and need it for iOS? Unfortunately you’re going to have to wait a little longer because the iOS version is still being developed.

You can also check out more photos and video samples from the game of their Instagram as well.

Nitro Circus World Games – Triple Jump Explained

May 28, 2016

With the Nitro Circus‘ “Nitro World Games” contest going down in July, we’re starting to see more previews of what’s to come. Today, they released a little video explaining the format and scoring of their triple jump contest. It seems fairly straight forward, but we’re still a little confused on just how it all will go down. Either way, it should be interesting.

“The world’s best BMX and skate athletes will throw down their biggest tricks this July at Rice-Eccles Stadium.”

Oakley – From The Ground Up with Mike “Hucker” Clark

May 28, 2016

Now this is pretty much every trails riders wet dream, haha. Oakley asked Mike “Hucker” Clark if he wanted to use some of their land, along with their skid loader and all their tools to build up a dream set of trails for him and his friends to ride. Obviously Mike took the opportunity and he turned that land into some serious gold. Above and below are two videos giving us a look at what was built. The top video focuses on the backstory and the build, while the second video focuses on the riding. Both kick ass, so hit play and enjoy!

“Oakley gave the keys to the Dirt Lab to BMX dirt jumper extraordinaire, Mike “Hucker” Clark, and let him create the jump line he’d only ever dreamed about. In Part 1, Hucker takes us through the journey of being presented the opportunity up to the moment it’s finally ride-ready.

Music: “Fading Fire” by William Ryan Fritch (Electric-Life.org)

“All work and no play makes BMX dirt jumper Mike “Hucker” Clark a less perpetually-happy boy. The intention for the private dirt jumps he built at Oakley HQ was to fine-tune his riding in hopes of winning his first X Games gold medal, but it’s also so that he can ride as much as possible with all his closest friends… because, at the end of the day, that’s why he started riding in the first place.

CentJam2K16

May 28, 2016

Matt Closson put together this highlight reel from this years CentJam at the Centennial Skatepark out in Arizona. This video starts out with Lahsaan Kobza putting a hurting on everyone he came across in a game of footdown, a look at some of the races around the park, followed up with a ton of riding that went on all day long and into the night. Looks like it was a damn good time to us!

“The CentJam2k16 went down this year on May 14th at Centennial Skatepark. Last year during the BLNTD Vegas trip we threw a jam at my local park so I decided to make it happen again this year. It turned out to be bigger and better than I even thought would happen. We did a long jump, bunnyhop contest, foot down, best tricks, and a death race at the end. Keaton Harris and Kody Pollock held it down on the VXs for most of the night. Shout out to everyone that came out and shredded and a huge thanks to all the sponsors: Stacked BMX Shop, Deco BMX, BLNTD, Shadow, Subrosa, Animal, Cult, S1 Helmets, Profile, Madera”
