Empire BMX dropped us a line to let us know they have a brand new Steven Hamilton BMX video for all of us to enjoy!

Perspective on the Future of BMX Contests and Nitro World Games

December 9, 2015

Generally, we try and stay away from heavily opinionated posts on the site, since we feel our opinion is just one voice of many, many BMX riders around the world and everyone has a different perspective on this sport of ours. But, today we are seeing a lot of discussion about the future of BMX contests after seeing the plan for the Nitro World Games, which is ultimately looking for a new way to expose BMX, moto-x, skateboarding and a few other action sports to the masses in hopes of pumping the industries full of energy and revived life that many feel is struggling to get the attention of the masses anymore. So, we’re going to toss out our perspective and then we’re hoping to get a lot of discussion going in the comments whether it be here, Facebook or really anywhere we can get riders to discuss their ideas or dreams of where to take this thing we call BMX next.

Daniel Dhers – Mini Ramping

Daniel Dhers: Mini Ramping – More BMX Videos

It’s awesome seeing more BMX videos popping up with technical lip tricks and ramp riding. We get so caught up in BMX videos with grinds and freecoaster action, it’s nice to mix it up a little bit. Watch as Daniel Dhers throws down a bunch of technical lip tricks on his new spine mini ramp. It’s a side of Daniel we don’t get to see all too often since it’s a bit of a contrast from his contest style riding we’re more accustom to. Take a peek!

“Daniel Dhers recently decided he wanted a new mini ramp. When you own the park, you get what you want. Once the five foot mini – complete with a spine and sub box – was finished, we caught up with Daniel and watched him put it to the test. As you’ll see here, everything is wonderful.” – Vital BMX
