Shocker BMX – Ryutaro Higa in Hong Kong

January 18, 2016

So much talent over in China and Japan these days. Ryutaro Higa recently spent some time over in Hong Kong cruising street spots. Bob at Shocker BMX pulled out the camera and logged some of the real dialed riding that Ryutaro threw down during his stay. Definitely well worth a look!

“Japan rider ‘Ryutaro Higa’ is very funny, nice guy. But when he’s on his bike, he’s a beast. Higa can kills almost every type of spots in full speed with a raw street style. You will see what I mean after you watch this edit. I feel sad that I can not get more clips from him to put in this edit due to his short stay in Hong Kong during last summer. Hope we can meet up and film some more in the near future.

How A BMX Stem Is CNC Machined

January 17, 2016

A video posted by Chris Moeller (@moeller_chris) on Jan 15, 2016 at 8:29am PST

Chris Moeller has been killing it with the behind the scenes production clips the past few days. So far we got a look at how knurling is added to handlebars, then we got a look at how they bend the tubing for a BMX fork and now today we get a look at how S&M Bikes CNC machine a BMX stem. It turns out this is a little sneak preview of a new updated topload stem they’re working on, that we would imagine will be out soon. Based on the clip, our guess is that it’s the Enduro or Credence stem, but we could be wrong!

“Sneak peek of a new and improved top load stem. We’re doing a 40mm, 49mm and 52mm version. Take a wild guess what it is.”

The Best of BMX In 2015 – BMXashka Perspective

January 17, 2016

There’s no denying that 2015 was an incredible year for BMX videos and the progression of riding in general. We’ve seen a lot of compilation BMX videos lately, but this one is definitely worth hitting the play button on. It’s pretty much 10 minutes straight of some of the wildest riding that went down between park, street and dirt with riding from all the big name guys like Garrett Reynolds, Dennis Enarson, Alex Coleborn, Devon Smillie Chad Kerley, Kriss Kyle, Alex Donnachie, , Simone Barraco and many, many, many more to some of the up and coming unheard of guys that made some waves as well. Take it all in!

“Surely this is hard to stack best BMX clips in a 10 minute video especially when the words “best” and “BMX” are almost incompatible, but we wanted to show you guys what we enjoyed this year most of all. When we stopped editing the first time the video was over 30 minutes and it seems people are not really into spending that amount of time for different reasons, so with a grieve in our hearts we needed to shorten this to 10 so more people are going to watch this. One of the hardest things we have ever done haha. Also we wanted to thank all the riders, filmers and people that make all the BMX videos happen. It’s sooooooooooo HUGE and it helps riding and seeing BMX differently so much! THANK YOU!
