Above is a video giving you a look at what went down in the first day of practice from Brad Simms and a bunch of other riders! Hit play and take it all in! Expect plenty more from this contest this weekend.
Local BMX – Callan Stibbards 2016 Video
Callan Stibbards coming through with a fresh new BMX video for Local BMX down in Australia! Callan cooked up a bunch of real solid clips where he puts his pegs and nose balance to heavy use. The filming on this one is a little rough around all the edges, but it’s well worth a look!
Deco – Pac Ends Promo
We all know the importance of Bar Ends thanks to the scientific testing Mat Hoffman and Dennis McCoy did (WARNING: GRAPHIC), so it’s always important to run ’em. Deco just released this short but sweet promo featuring Chad DeGroot and their new Pac Bar ends. The Pac bar ends are made right here in the U.S.A by Profile Racing out of 7075-T6 aluminum with a flush bolt design to clamp them to your bars and smooth, rounded edges to ensure you don’t end up cutting yourself open.
The Pac Ends weigh in at 0.7 oz. each and are available through Deco dealers and online for $29.99 worldwide now.
Weird & Revered – Fiending 4 Leftovers
The Weird & Revered crew were sitting on a ton of leftover footage from their Fiending 4 Fun Mixtape, so they decided instead of letting it all go to waste, to put it together into one more video. Check out a bunch of random extras that didn’t make the cut, along with 2nd angles and throwaway clips. There is plenty of weird in this one.
Red Bull – “Wheelz” Takes Wheelchairs to New Heights
You can’t pass up a video from Aaron “Wheelz” Fothering! Although this is more of a promo for the annual Wings For Life World Run that Red Bull does, it still has some footage of Aaron cruising around at the skatepark and we get a little insight into how he keeps his sessions going thanks to a little help from a close friend. We’re always pumped seeing people who don’t let a disability from keeping them from enjoying a skatepark or really anything that has to do with BMX or skateboarding. Hit play and take it all in!
“Aaron “Wheelz” Fotheringham is a 24 year-old wheelchair motocross athlete from Las Vegas, Nevada. Aaron was born with Spina Bifida, a birth defect of the spinal cord, which resulted in him having no usage of his legs…but that’s never stopped him.
Aaron started riding at skate parks at the age of 8 when his older brother Brian said he should drop in a quarter pipe. The first time was scary, and he he slammed hard. But he got up, tried it again, stomped it, and the rest is history as he built an entire life and career around his passion as the world’s top wheelchair freestyler.
Join Team Wheelz and sign up to run for those who can’t in the Wings For Life World Run on May 8th!

Scotty Cranmer – Dare Me To Jump The Half Pipe?
Scotty Cranmer dropped another new webisode for your viewing pleasure. This time the crew hit up the skatepark in West Windsor where Scotty kicks things off with some hammers over a huge gap, followed up with more clips from the rest of the park from Scotty, Matty Cranmer and Big Boy! Check out what went down!
“We took a trip over to a park that none of us have been to before in West Windsor, NJ. The park was one of the most fun pre-fab parks that I have ever ridden! Big Boy, Matty, and myself drove the WRX’s over there on a perfect day! We got the session off to a fast start when BigBoy immediately attempted the flair challenge! And then I followed him up by doing a tail whip over the whole half pipe! Matty did some amazing tech lines and I made a deal w/ Big Boy to double tire ride this long rail in the street section and i was going to reward him with the biggest ice cream we could get! Big Boy attempted the trick and ended up crashing harder then I ever thought possible on a flat rail and nearly broke his back in half! Even though he didn’t land the trick I still treated the boys to ice cream!”
BCave – Everyones Ish 1
The BCAVE crew dropped a new mix featuring John Mayo, Chris Childs and the rest of the crew putting in the work out east on every rail, ledge and random spot and skatepark they could. This is 10 minutes of goodness, so hit play and enjoy!
LFS2: The Extras – Mike Kleissler
The LFS crew dropping some more leftover footage from their “LFS2” DVD online for your viewing pleasure. This time around we get a look at some of the clips that Mike Kleissler didn’t end up using in his section. Just because they’re extras, it doesn’t mean they don’t kick ass. Take a look!
“Mikek stacked a buch of clips for LFS2. From tech mauenvers to full speed gaps, he gets it all done. Here’s his extras from the video.
