Andy and Tim Maguire do New York City!
You can always count on New York City to deliver with the spots. Andy Maguire sent over a fresh edit he put together from a trip he took with his brother, Tim Maguire, this past summer where they explored the city and the legendary Brooklyn Banks and documented the trip all along the way. This looks like it was such a good time. Hit play and take it all in.
“Growing up, the Brooklyn Banks was the Holy Land of action sports. A central meet up to hang, shred, and get engulfed in one of the biggest cities on the planet. This place oozed culture, and projected so much that I grew to love about BMX. A place to belong, shenanigans, a unique offering of obstacles that could be continuously sessioned; a complete package that I knew I had to feel rather than just see. To see it re-open after 15 years of closure felt like a second chance, an opportunity I needed to take. My brother and I flew out the week of 9/11, for a 3-day BMX binge. We took the subway twice, and pedaled the rest of the way. The banks lived up to the hype, as well as the rest of the classic NYC spot tourism. We also managed to cross some bridges, explore unfamiliar neighborhoods, meet old and new friends, and live BMX through all hours of the day, until our muscles could barely steady the handlebars. I hope this encourages you to cross some things off the bucket list as the new year unfolds; you owe it to yourself!” – Andy Maguire
