Emil Eriksson – Mythical

April 25, 2016

Emil Eriksson is one of those riders that we would classify as super under rated. Emil has been crushing it for years for brands like The Shadow Conspiracy and he’s progressed and continued to push himself the whole time. Here’s a 7 minute compilation of footage featuring him slaying spot after spot all around the world. This is one of those BMX videos we HIGHLY suggest you watch. So good.

“This is a collection of Emil Eriksson’s favorite DV footage made into a whole new video. This video was never supposed to end up online as it’s been more of a personal project rather than something for Emil’s sponsors but a lot of people have been asking about it so here it is. The ”Mythical” video is the result of 100% bmx passion and contains old and new clips filmed at famous spots all over the world. Press play now and enjoy 7 minutes full of hammers!”
