In The Cut – The Shadow Conspiracy In New York City

September 5, 2015

Curious what the day of the premiere of “What Could Go Wrong?” was like for the Shadow Conspiracy team? Well, here’s a little behind the scenes look that follows the crew from first thing in the morning on up through the premeire and after party! Looks like it was one hell of a good day to us!

“When you belong to a team that is spread all over the world, an event that brings everyone together is something you can’t miss… In New York City during the first week of August, The Shadow Conspiracy did just that; the entire crew was in attendance (Scott we missed you) for the world premiere of their newest DVD project.

I came along to be a part of that experience, and to bring you a behind the scenes look at the team, up close and personal. Starting off the day in the right way, a high speed ride through Brooklyn to The House of Vans where the video was set to premiere that night. The team caught their very first viewing of the video only hours before the hundreds of awaiting riders feasted their eyes upon the video workings of Chadwick. Vans and Shadow put on one hell of a party for everyone of all ages and the jam at the House of Vans went down without a hitch and thanks to Darryl Nau we had the after hours situation all figured out! Follow The Shadow Conspiracy through their day leading up to the premiere of ‘What Could Go Wrong?’

Featuring: Albert Mercado, Seth Kimbrough, Johnny Devlin, Trey Jones, Lahsaan Kobza, Simone Barraco, Paul Ryan, Scott Ditchburn, Joris Coloumb, Eric Bahlman, Mark Burnett.

‘What Could Go Wrong?’ is available in select countries via iTunes and on DVD worldwide through any Shadow supported shop, mail order, and their online store.

“The 2015 Mongoose Jam at Woodward West has come and gone, but this Best Of video does a great job at showing just how diverse and epic this contest series really is… From Logan Martin doing 360 double down-whips, to Broc Raiford grind up a hubba to 540 out. There’s a little something for everyone, and plenty of cross contamination (in a great way)… Devon Smillie can shred the shit out of some trails.” – Ride BMX

How To Patch A BMX Tube With A Glueless Patch Kit

September 4, 2015

Want to learn how to patch a BMX tube? This video and the guide below should help you get it done!

With the way BMX riders ride their bikes, it’s inevitable that there’s going to be a flat tire or two… or three.. four… five… (We’ve had those days before, too). Sometimes the tube isn’t a complete blow out and a tiny pin hole can be repaired. We caught a small pinch flat and figured instead of tossing in a new tube, we would do a quick how-to on patching a BMX tube instead of replacing one. As you can see from the video, we’re using the Flybikes Cobra tube, which speeds up this process even more because it has eliminated the need to actually take our wheel off. So, check out the quick video above to see how to patch a BMX tube, then we’ll take you through the steps below with photos and text to help show you how to patch a BMX tube in more detail…
