How To Crankflip with Josh Clemens
Have you ever wanted to learn how to do crank flips but you just haven’t been able to figure it out? Turns out that Josh Clemens has them dialed in and knows a few tricks to getting them done properly! Hit play and take a look to see just what it takes to make those BMX cranks spin!
“Crank flips are a very underutilized, simple and steezy, easy and widely applicable trick that we feel is a little under appreciated… So we got Long Beach transplant Josh Clemens to do a little demo and run down the proper technique to have you crank flipping around town in no time.” – Ride BMX
Is This The Longest Hang Five Ever?
Eric Minnick hit us up with a link to this video of him doing one hell of a hang five. We’re not sure what the record is for the longest hang five on a BMX bike, but this one, which lasts about a minute and forty seconds might just take the cake. One thing we did notice is that when he finally calls it quit he hits some gravel and rough patches on the road which leads us to believe he could probably have kept that going even longer. All in all, this hang five is about a minute and 39 seconds longer than one we can do, haha.
What do you think? Have you seen longer? Got footage of it? Let us know in the comments!

If this is what we’re seeing on it during a solo session, imagine how crazy things will get on it during the Cornhuckit Jam on August 8th?
