It’s been quite a while since Brad Simms has made it back to the U.S due to his constant travels around the world, but it looks like he’s finally back. Check out two quick clips from a session he caught at the Merritt warehouse! Hopefully this means we’ll be seeing more of Brad popping up again!
“Brad is back in the country and stopped by the warehouse the other day. he couldnt pass up on the roof drop in setup. He fired out a quick turndown and T-bog before heading back home to MD. ”
There was a memorial jam for “Slow” Joe McIntire this past weekend in Philadelphia where a handful of his friends and locals turned out for a session. Ryan Navazio was there with his camera to capture the day filled with some good riding and great vibes. There’s even a few old clips of Joe mixed in from the spot just for good measure. Rest in Peace, Joe! You will never be forgotten.
“On August 30th, 2015 a group of Joe’s friends threw an impromptu jam at one of his favorite spots in Philadelphia, Baldi Middle School. In memory of “Slow” Joe Mcintire November 14, 1986 – August 19, 2015.” – Ryan Navazio
Seeing Hi-8 footage always brings us way back to when we first started messing around with cameras. Although the quality is rough, it’s still so good. The other reason why this video is so good is because it features Ryan Chadwick, who for the past few years has been damn busy behind the lens filming for Shadow Conspiracy’s “What Could Go Wrong?”. Although he had that going, he was still able to stack some damn good clips for this new edit from DIG. Enjoy!
“After releasing the first Hi-8 edit early Jan 2015 using my Sony TRV-608, I wanted to keep filming and start to work on a second Hi-8 edit. These edits are focused on having fun and filming my friends out riding wherever we end up that day. From the start, Chadwick was very adamant about stacking enough clips so he could have his own part. Though Chadwick was in the midst of his typical TM duties, going on Shadow trips and then to finalize/produce the What Could Go Wrong DVD, he still managed to get out there and finally get his turn shred in front of the lens. So without further ado, here’s Ryan Christopher Chadwick in all his Hi-8 glory, enjoy!” – Eric Bahlman

Last week we went over what is 4130 chromoly and heat-treating. We were thinking it would be rad to continue this and talk about a few other types of metals and materials that are used in BMX, so today we’re going to talk a little bit about 7075-T6 aluminum and 6061 Alumimum, which we find frequently on a lot of parts like stems and sprockets, but do you know what the numbers actually mean? Well, here’s your chance to find out…
It’s pretty rad when a BMX team like Nike releases a new video, but it’s even radder when it is going to be on worldwide TV to give BMX some really good exposure. ESPN BMX released this teaser for the Nike BMX In Spain video that will appear on this weeks “World of X-Games” on Sunday, September 6th at 4PM (Eastern) on ABC. The episode will feature Garrett Reynolds, Dennis Enarson, Chad Kerley, Simone Barraco, Alex Kennedy and filmer Ryan Navazio. So stoked to see this!

A few months back we were tipped off about a brand from Russia called “Brotherhood” that was producing a few different BMX sprockets and small parts. The reason we were so interested is because of a two-piece sprocket they had developed called the Oyster which is similar to an actual oyster was hollow and has two parts that come together to make a solid piece. The other day we received a package in the mail and would you know, there was an Oyster ready for us to get a closer look at. Curious what this thing is all about and how it works? Let’s talk about it…
A little while back, the GT Bicycles crew consisting of Rob Wise, Brian Kachinsky, Jeremiah Smith, and Jason Phelan made a trip to Kansas City, Missouri of all places to see just what the city had to offer for spots. Based off this banger of a BMX video, it’s clear these guys had no problems finding shit to ride! Take a look!
“GT’s Rob Wise, Brian Kachinsky, Jeremiah Smith, and Jason Phelan wage a war on the streets of Kansas City, MO. People have been sleeping on KC all this time but I have a feeling that’s about to change. From the craziest damn spot you’ve ever seen, to a plethora of rail set-ups beyond your wildest dreams, KC is stacked. The squad of Rob Wise, Brian Kachinsky, Jason Phelan, and Jeremiah Smith spent ten days dodging rain and putting themselves through hell… The result? A collection of clips that will surely be talked about and even stand the test of time. This is “Bleeding Kansas” GT in KC. Get your hands on a copy RideBMX Magazine issue 210 for the inside story and all of the pictorial goodness.” – Ride BMX
