Austin/Central TX has a long and rich history of BMX. When presented with their positive attitudes and 100% commitment to shredding any and all forms of terrain, the decision to facilitate a full-length DVD documentation of the next generation’s adventures was a no-brainer for us. These young guns are the embodiment of what we think is best about BMX: searching for dope spots, putting tires, pegs, and pedals on obstacles in creative and fun ways, and most importantly, doing it all with a smile on your face with your crew. Shouts to Cabbage Crew, Gnarnia BMX, and Jeremie Infelise for making it all happen!”

In The Cut – Nashville

December 11, 2015

Ever wondered what it would be like to go on a trip with Dan Lacey, Bruno Hoffmann, Dakota Roche, Nathan Williams, Shane Weston and Corey Martinez? Well, here’s a pretty good look at what it’s like in this “In the Cut” video DIG dropped from some time these guys spent in Nashville together. It’s not all riding, and there’s a lot of laughs and good times had off the bike that this gives you some insight on the way things usually go on a laid back trip like this. We have a feeling whatever they were filming for will be online sooner than later and it’s bound to kick a lot of ass! Get stoked!

“In September we joined Dan Lacey, Bruno Hoffmann, Dakota Roche, Shane Weston, Nathan Williams, Corey Martinez and Rich Forne in Nashville TN for a week of filming for Monster Energy and hanging out. Despite some undesirable police attention, that you have have been privy to if you follow our instagram account, the trip was dreamy much like the spots and the food stops, and when you have two locals like Nathan and Corey showing you around you’d be hard pressed to go wrong. Here’s a look at what we got up to along with some fun clips from the crew.” – DIG

Sneak Peek: Subrosa – Additional Street Rail Kits

December 11, 2015

Here’s something you might have caught during Interbike 2015. The crew over at Subrosa have been working on a handful of different kits for the Subrosa Street Rail to keep things interesting. They started out with just the rail, then they added the connector kit and extension kit, followed by the new A-Frame Kit, but they aren’t done yet. Above you can see a preview for their XS kit, which lowers the rail to 12″ tall, the Roller Coaster kit that puts two rails next to each other and an uprail kit to give the rail that up angle. Most of which should be available over the course of this coming year. We also saw they’re working on an A-Frame Roller Coaster kit and we’re sure this isn’t the end of the modifications. I mean, we haven’t even seen a curved rail kit (We can only imagine the logistical mess that might be for shipping) that could be interesting.

So, if you’re a fan of the Street Rail, it looks like you have some options to start saving up for!

View the A-Frame Roller Coaster prototype below.
